To support the health and safety of our community, the library will be closed until further notice. The book drops will be closed. Please keep all materials until the library re-opens. No overdue fees will be assessed. Please disregard any overdue notices you may receive.  Any reserves that were available for you before the library’s closing will be available when we re-open.

With the federal government’s extension of the income tax deadline to July 15, 2020, the library will make every effort to reschedule the VITA (tax assistance) appointments once we re-open. We’re looking forward to returning to this important service. Until then, please do not call for tax assistance appointments.

The Library Board of Trustees March meeting will be held at 2:30 PM on Wednesday, March 25, 2020 in the meeting room, unless situations change. The library will only be open for this meeting. No regular library operations or general access to the building will be available.

E-books and e-audiobooks are available on mobile devices through our free Axis 360 app, available in the App Store and Google Play Store. They can also be streamed from our Axis 360 website at https://mclib.axis360.baker-taylor.com/. Find out more about Axis 360 at https://www.mclib.org/books-movies-more/ebooks-eaudiobooks/
