SUMMER NEWSLETTER
It is now officially summer season on Cape Cod and what a different time it is! Covid 19 is, unfortunately, still with us and after 2 months of stay at home orders, business shut downs and no dine in restarants, Gov. Baker just issued his guidelines for reopening in 4 phases. The process will be slow, subject to change if the virus spikes, but it is designed to keep us safe.
Dennis Memorial will continue to offer curb service M, W, F, 4-6 until further notice.
You may now order books and materials from all the CLAMS libraries or by calling the library on Monday, Wednesday or Friday between 4:00 and 6:00 and pick up will be at the library.
We miss having you in the library and sharing conversations, and hopefully that will happen soon. Meanwhile, please take advantage of the following services we can still provide.
CURB SERVICE
You MUST wear a mask when you pick up books!
When you come to the library, knock on the window next to the book return, give us your name, step back at least 6 feet and we'll place a bag with your materials on a table on our porch.
