The Wawa Public Library is open. Our reopening policy is available to read on the library website (wawa.olsn.ca). We will be allowing five people in at a time for no more than 15 minutes at a time. We will ask that you read a questionnaire prior to entering the library. You will be required to leave your name and contact info so that we may complete a daily Contact Tracing Sheet! Please do not come into the library if you are feeling ill! We are happy to bring materials out to your car if you do not wish to come into the library. Masks must be worn; social distancing must be respected and hand sanitizer will be provided. Only the main library entrance will be available at this time. Our hours initially will remain Tuesday-Friday from 11:00am-4:00pm. The public washroom is closed.
Anyone wishing to use the public computers must call ahead to book a time. This is to avoid having too many people in the library. The time limit on the computers will be 30 minutes.
All library materials will be returned in the drop box, not the circulation desk. In order to clean and sanitize library material we ask that you do not bring returns to the circulation desk but leave them in the drop box on your way into the library. Please do not deposit batteries or ink cartridges in the drop box as they may damage our books.
