Libraries that have been closed since May 9th in the Cariboo and Chilcotin are set to tentatively return to service starting today (May 14).
The Cariboo Regional District said regional libraries in Quesnel, 100 Mile House, and Williams Lake will fully reopen to the public resuming normal operations during regular operating hours, and regularly scheduled library programs will resume.
Rural community branch libraries will be operating on a curbside pickup basis only.
The CRD said library patrons can visit one of their rural locations to pickup an item they have placed on hold and will also be able to place holds through the Cariboo Library Nework’s website.
They said patrons should be aware that the BC General Employees Union may set up picket lines without prior notice to the communities impacted or the Regional District.
If picketing begins at any library the Cariboo Regional District said services will become unavailable again at those locations.
