Staying Healthy
This Winter:
Flu season is upon us and the Library wants to do everything we can to continue
to provide excellent service to our patrons while ensuring the health of patrons
and staff alike. To do so we have adopted the following initiatives:
·
Reeseville Public Library (RPL)
will remain open unless advised to close by local health officials.
·
RPL will ask any patron
displaying flu like symptoms to refrain from using the library until
asymptomatic. Materials that need to be returned should be placed in the outside
drop box.
·
RPL is providing hand
sanitizers, facial tissues, disinfectant wipes and waste containers by all
computer workspaces. Please use these as you feel appropriate.
·
RPL will post any further
information regarding closings or other related information requested by local
health officials in the library and on our website –
www.reeseville.lib.wi.us.
