SIGS Activities Suspended; Library closed until Phase 3

 

Given the severity of Covid-19 virus situation, and the responsibility we feel to avoid compromising the health of our members, the public, and those who would be at risk due to underlying conditions, the SIGS board has made the difficult decision to suspend all activities.  The library will remain closed until Phase 3. SIGS is studying and evaluating procedures for how to safely reopen the Library once Snohomish County reaches Phase 3. The Library will not reopen until we can implement measures to minimize the health and safety risk to our members and patrons.

We will send or post any updates on the website and our Facebook page as they become available and will let you know when we reopen.
