The Sacramento Public Library system issued a statement regarding coronavirus policy this afternoon.

Following the release of new state guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19, we have made the decision to cancel library programs and outreach through the end of March. No new meeting room reservations will be accepted at this time.

Currently, all library locations remain open to the public, along with digital services, which will continue to be available 24/7. 

We are working closely with city and county authorities and with our school partners to keep our community informed. We will provide regular updates through our website and social media outlets as new information is available.

We will continue to keep you updated should any changes occur. As always, thank you for doing your part.
