Jennie Woodworth Library of White Bluff COVID-19 Guidelines

Updated April 1, 2021

Our goal is to ensure as safe of an environment as possible while library services resume. We want both the patrons and staff to know they are valued. We will evaluate these guidelines as we progress.

  

1.    Patrons are requested to follow social distance requirements of at least 6 feet apart.

2.    Staff reserves the right to deny access to patrons who appear to be sick, i.e., coughing, sneezing, etc.

3.    Patrons are encouraged to wash their hands before entering the library. Wearing a face mask is requested. Please be considerate of others.

4.    Materials are to be returned to the box that is at the circulation desk.  Each returned item will be disinfected and quarantined a minimum of 48 hours before being available for checkout.

5.    While following the social distancing requirements, patrons will be allowed to study and use the free wi-fi service available throughout the building.

6.    Staff will not be able to provide one on one technology assistance at this time due to social distancing. Staff will remain at the circulation desk during hours of operation, if a patron needs assistance they are to come to the desk and request what they need.

7.    We request that the vulnerable and elderly use the library from 10-12 Monday – Saturday. All patrons may use the library from 12 until close. (Monday & Thursday 10-6, Tuesday, Wednesday, & Friday 10-5, and Saturday 10-2)

8.     These guidelines are in addition to existing Library policy.

The Wingfeather Saga

 You asked and we listened. 

Over the last several months we have had a few request for the series The Wingfeather Saga. It took a moment to get the series but we are happy to announce that we have all four volumes.

The Wingfeather Saga is a four-book series by singer-songwriter Andrew Peterson that tells the story of a family living in a land governed by venomous giant lizard men, the Fangs of Dang, who terrorize the citizenry in ways both outrageous (stealing local children) and banal (demanding paperwork for permission to shovel). The family’s three children discover they have a deep history behind them and destiny ahead of them, both of which could change their whole land and drive the Fangs out for good—if they can overcome the fangishness poisoning their own hearts. 

We have put this series in our Young Adult section. The first two books are geared for middle grade, think 6-8th grade, while the last two books are a little more mature in theme. Given the spectrum of topics and themes in our Juvenile Fiction books we felt it best for this series to be in YA.

We are happy to be able to provide this series in our collection for our community.
