Burlington Public Library to open some branches Tuesday

First Published:

The Burlington Public Library is opening some branches for walk-in service on Tuesday.

The Aldershot and New Appleby branches will open at 11 a.m.

Patrons will be able to pick up holds, browse and borrow materials and use computers if you have an appointment.

You will have to wear a mask and visits should be kept to an hour or less.

Library cards will be used for contact tracing.

Hours will be Tuesday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturdays 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The library has been gradually offering more services as COVID-19 restrictions have loosened.

You can pick up holds and use the computers at Central and Tansley Woods but these branches are still closed to browsing.

The Alton and Brant Hill are expected to reopen on Sept. 1.
