Curbside is still available at all PLMVKC locations.
Free Wi-Fi access is available at all our library locations. In addition, we offer Mi-Fi hotspots for patrons to borrow, as well as LG Tablets that offer Wi-Fi capabilities to connect multiple devices. We offer a 14-day loan period for hotspot devices.
Currently, we are fine free except for the cost of replacements should an item be lost, stolen or never returned.
The Library will also continue to service patrons’ needs through social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), phone and email (library@knox.net) and will still provide wifi access to the internet accessible from its parking lots, including the Gambier facility.
All of the Library’s digital and online resources can be accessed through its website: www.knox.net/online-services.
Programming will remain online by social media and the Library website. In-person programming will be resumed on a trial basis, starting with storytime. Booking of meeting rooms for public use will not be resumed until a later date, to be announced.
We are now accepting donated materials, however, they must be properly boxed before donating to the library.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to let us know. We appreciate your consideration and patience as we navigate these times. Thank you. Stay well.
