Cheney Library Reopens For Limited Patron Access Inside the Library Building

Cheney Library is currently open for limited patron access inside the library building. We have adopted the following guidelines in order to ensure patron and staff safety within the library. These guidelines will be in place until further notice:

  • A mask must be worn at all times on library premises
  • Social distancing practices will be enforced
  • Patron visits will be limited to 20 minutes (transaction only)
  • The first open hour of each day will be reserved for curbside services only
  • 2 public computers will be available for patron use
  • Librarians will facilitate copy/fax services. If you need to fax or make photocopies, please ask a librarian for assistance
  • Returns will be accepted via book drop only. All materials will be quarantined for a minimum of 96 hours before they are checked in
  • There will be no in-person programming or club meetings at the library
  • The Multipurpose Room and bathroom are currently closed to the public
  • The library will operate at 50% capacity with our current temporary limited hours. If the library reaches its capacity limit, additional patrons who would like to enter the library will be asked to wait outside
  • We will not be resuming book sales or accepting book donations at this time


We have missed our patrons very much, and look forward to seeing you again!
