Services

Most library services have resumed, with a few changes. Curbside services are now only available upon request at Bolinas, Corte Madera, Fairfax, Inverness, Marin City, Point Reyes, South Novato (Fridays only) and Stinson Beach Libraries.

We are starting to host outdoor programs, so please check our online events calendar for the latest information.

Browsing all the collections inside our libraries and access to public Internet computer workstations will be available at all branches except Corte Madera, which remains closed for construction.

Though most of our branches are resuming a full schedule of operating hours in July, due to construction and staffing shortages, some of our locations are not all the way back yet. We are working to bring all our branches back to normal as quickly as possible.

Please contact us if you have questions or need assistance. We look forward to seeing you in the Library this summer!
