FORT WAYNE, Ind. (ADAMS) – Starting Monday, November 1, the Allen County Public Library will return to offering a full schedule of in-person programs at all locations.
ACPL programs have been virtual, outdoors, or offered as packaged, to-go options since March 2020.
Representatives with the library released the following:
“Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, library staff have done a phenomenal job adapting how we hold programs and deliver resources to the community. We know that patrons have missed attending library programs over the past 18 months.
Our librarians have missed the interactions and conversations that occur during programs. At the same time, we were willing to wait until we felt confident we could hold in-person programs in a safe, healthy way,” said Stephanny Smith, Director of Community Engagement.
ACPL is still following social distancing guidelines, which will result in reduced numbers of participants in programs. Registration is required for all in-person programs and masks are encouraged but not mandatory for patrons.
ACPL asks that patrons not enter library buildings if they are experiencing a cough or fever. Patrons can find program information and registrations links under the Events tab of www.acpl.info or by using the ACPL app. Assistance is also available by calling (260) 421-1200.
