The Bixby Memorial Free Library will reopen with limited capacity, starting Tuesday, May 18. The library building will re-open to the public for visits up to 20 minutes long. Book stacks will be open for browsing, and public computers and printing services will be available.

The library will be open during the following hours for 20-minute visits:

Tuesdays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Wednesdays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Thursdays, 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Fridays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Capacity at the library will be limited and metered for the health and safety of both residents and library staff and volunteers. Brief visits will allow the Library to serve more patrons each day. All visitors will be required to wear face masks and perform a health self-assessment before entering library facilities. The library will also continue to offer online book reservations for those who just wish to stop by to pick up holds. The reopening follows the Vermont Forward guidance from the state and is enabled by recent returns to pre-covid staff and volunteer levels.
