“We are also fortunate to have creative and dedicated staff who were able to develop a new way of processing returned material so that we can continue to isolate returns for 72 hours while keeping the return drop open for additional days.”—Paul Burry, Director, Prince George Public Library

For now, the Curbside Hold Pickup hours will remain the same at the Nechako Branch, from Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The Library will also discontinue assigned pickup days with the increased hours. Once patrons have been notified that their holds are available, they are able to drop by and pickup their materials at their convenience.

The returns bin will now be open five days a week at the Bob Harkins Branch, from Tuesday at 10 a.m. to Saturday at 2 p.m.

Social distancing measures are still in place when picking up holds.
