This will take a few weeks, or more, to resolve. We apologize for the inconvenience. We will keep everyone updated as we go. We will resume circulation when it is safe to do so.
Please no material returns at this time. Any accrued overdue fines will be waived once we can check in materials again. You can also return and check out materials at other SALS member libraries.
