In order to safely offer in-person services, there are health and safety guidelines. A NOTICE ON THE WEARING OF FACE MASKS IN THE LIBRARY BUILDING: As of August 12, 2021: Per Governor Lamont’s Executive Order number 12A: https://www.hagamanlibrary.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Executive-Order-No-12-May-19-2021.pdf (please scroll down to page 3 and item number 1), all unvaccinated people are required to wear face masks in the library building. It is also highly recommended by the library at this time, based on the recommendation from the Connecticut Department of Public Health, that all patrons above the age of 2, even if fully vaccinated, resume the practice of wearing a face mask at all times over the nose, mouth, and chin while in the library building, due to the increased risk of COVID-19 infections, from the emerging Delta variant. We thank-you for your understanding as we adapt and continue to serve our community as the situation develops with the current health crisis.
Outside: Face masks are not required outdoors on the library grounds.
The required and recommended wearing of face masks is on the honor system, and we please ask for your compliance. Thank-you, Hagaman Memorial Library, August 12, 2021.
