A Message from the Director:

More Library Services Coming Your Way!

Hello all,
I am pleased to announce that on September 8th, we will begin in-person browsing visits for East Rutherford library card holders. These visits will be made by appointment only. We also will continue with our computer and copier appointments.

For the safety of staff and patrons, we have set some guidelines for our reopening.
Visits will be limited to 30 minutes per day. The amount of people permitted in the library at one time will be limited. Please carefully read the guidelines below to ensure everyone’s safety.

Safety Measures

Masks are required for all who enter the library. Patrons not wearing masks will be offered one upon arrival. Patrons who cannot or will not wear a mask will not be permitted in the library.
We will have hand sanitizers available throughout the library for your use.
Book returns should be done by using the book drop only. Please do not bring them into the library as they need to be quarantined for 72 hours. Because of this, books will still show on your card. There will be a 3 day grace period applied to the due date.
Restrooms will be available.
Please maintain a physical distance of 6 ft. between you and others.
No outside furniture will be allowed to be brought into the library.
No one under the age of 16 will be allowed in the library without an adult over the age of 21.
Doorside service will still be available for those who are more comfortable with this option.

Visit Protocols

Enter the library from the Main Street entrance.
Exit the library from the Boiling Springs entrance.
A staff member will be at the entrance to greet you and to ensure you have a face covering and to offer you hand sanitizer. Anyone refusing to wear a mask will not be permitted in the library.
Please be respectful of others and vacate the library when your time has elapsed.

Christine Hartigan, Director
