Greenville Public Library is happy to announce that the doors are once again open to the public. Patrons are now able to come in to browse for books and use computers at their convenience. Business hours are currently Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m.
There are still some restrictions for those utilizing our facility. Patrons are asked to please wear a mask when in the building and practice social distancing when others are present. Our in-house video game system is unavailable until further notice.
Computer use is being limited to one hour per person, with exceptions being made on a by-request basis for purposes such as taxes or work-related tasks. Due to Covid restrictions, there are currently six computers available for adult use, so anyone using the computers for leisure purposes may be asked to vacate the lab until another machine opens up.
There will not be any in-person programming at this time, but there are still many services being offered.
We are continuing our Curbside Services. Call the library to request your materials or to set up a pickup time for any held materials.
Interlibrary loan requests are currently being taken. To make a request, stop by or call the library during regular business hours.
We have around 200 different varieties of seeds available through our Growing Harvest Seed Library. Patrons may come in and select from our vast collection of free seeds, or they can contact Kelly Minnich and she will take your requests, pack your seeds, and arrange a time for pick up.
Story Time To-Go kits are still available. Contact Joanna in the Children’s Department to make a request. Virtual Story Times can be viewed on the GPL Children’s Facebook page or on our YouTube channel.
Our Extension Services department is making deliveries to local patrons, nursing homes and preschools. To request to be added to their schedule, contact Susana.
We also have a newsletter called the Carnegie Chronicle that is released monthly. It is filled with news and updates about what is going on at the library. To be added to our mailing list, contact Amanda Olson.
For more information on any of the above services or help with other questions, call the library at (937) 548-3915. We look forward to seeing you soon!
