LIBRARY TEMPORARILY CLOSED, CURBSIDE SERVICES PAUSED DUE TO COVID CASE

The Winona Public Library has immediately closed and paused its curbside services, including materials pickup and dropoff, due to a staff member testing positive for COVID-19.

The staff member is in quarantine, hasn’t been in the library since Monday, and had no contact with the public.

Residents will not be able to pick up materials they have requested, but the materials will be available to them as soon as the library reopens. No new materials will be able to be requested, and the dropoff will be closed.

Please read the full press release here.
