Quincy Public Library is pleased to announce that the building will be reopening to the public starting on Monday, Feb. 1, 2021. The library will resume normal operating hours, Monday-Thursday from 9 am to 8 pm, and Friday-Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm. Advance appointments will no longer be required for computers or research, though still highly encouraged for notary services. Patrons are required to wear masks and maintain social distancing when visiting the library.
Curbside services will cease, though patrons will be able to come into the building to pick up their materials. Additionally, the library has opened its return boxes around for materials. Items may be returned at in the book drops at Hy-vee on Harrison, County Market on 48th St, the Quincy Mall, Wal-mart, Iles Elementary School, Lincoln-Douglas Elementary School, or at QPL at 526 Jersey.
All digital services remain available. The library will continue to offer virtual programs on its social media pages and website. For a complete calendar of upcoming virtual programs, please visit http://quincylibrary.evanced.info/signup/calendar.
Home and institutional delivery services will also continue. Additionally, the library continues to offer the Grab and Go Hold Lockers, available 24/7 for contactless pick up of materials. The lockers are located outside at the main building (526 Jersey St.), Lincoln Douglas Elementary, and Iles Elementary. Lockers are also available inside County Market on 48th St.
Patrons who don’t have a specific title in mind but would like to check out materials can take advantage of QPL’s new Q-Picks Subscription Service. Patrons may fill out a form online listing their preferences on books or movies, and QPL librarians will select material for them to try. This form is available online at https://www.quincylibrary.org/q-picks/.
