Summer Library Program 2020 Update

Summer Library Program Update!

We are looking to start our Summer Library Program the last week of June.

Each week during our Summer Library Program we will have Take & Make grab bags that families (of all sizes & ages) can stop by and pick up at the library! They will be filled with activity ideas, supplies and lots of other fun things for all ages (adults included!). All you have to do is call ahead and request one and let us know how many people you'll need supplies for!

We are hoping to still offer Tuesday 2 pm afternoon programming OUTSIDE at the park across from the library starting June 30th. Registration for programs will be required this year. We are working with the library in Arpin (like usual) and referring to the Wood County Health Department for guidance. More details will be coming soon!

Curbside pick up appointments available starting April 27th!

Curbside pick up to be offered SOON

 

Wisconsin's new Safer At Home order that was issued yesterday gives libraries some flexibility to begin offering curbside pickup of library materials, but not until April 24 or later. The previous order, which prohibits curbside service, remains in effect until 8 a.m. on April 24.

The Lester Public Library of Vesper is exploring the possibility of curbside pickup of library materials, and we are awaiting additional interpretation from the Department of Public Instruction and the State Department of Health. Our goal is to provide this service starting Monday, April 27th. When we have a plan in place for offering and managing curbside pickup we will issue public announcements.

Our priority is the safety of library customers and library staff, and we want to be develop this new service accordingly.

Thank you for your continued patience.
