COVID-19 Reopening with Restrictions

St. Ignace Public Library prioritizes your safety and we have adapted our building and procedures to minimize risk of exposure to COVID-19. We have installed plexi-glass sneeze guards at all three contact points at the circulation desk, placed 6-feet distancing markers, minimized closed doors, and limited the available furniture and spaced out our computers. Our bathrooms will be thoroughly cleaned every 2 hours and all high-touch areas will be cleaned after every patron (computers, desks, etc). A hand sanitizer station will be available for public use. We are doing everything we can to ensure your safety and comfort.

Reopening with Restrictions Beginning July 2

St. Ignace Public Library will be open with reduced hours and limited access to services. *Curbside will still be available

Safety is our top priority. To ensure the best possible experience, we ask that all patrons abide by the following requirements:

  • All patrons ages 5 and older must wear a face-covering when visiting the library. If you do not have one upon entry, a mask will be provided for you
  • Patrons must maintain 6-feet distance from one another
  • If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms, please do not enter
