UPDATE 3/13/2020

LIBRARY HOURS
EFFECTIVE MARCH 16th - March 31st
Mondays - Thursdays 11:00 - 6:00 p.m.
Friday 11:00 - 5:00 p.m.
Saturdays - CLOSED


All late fees will be waived during this time period. 

All library programs will be cancelled between March 16th and March 31st in response to information published by the CDC.  All organizations that use the library to hold meetings will be asked to cancel their meetings as well.  

Our primary concern is the safety of our patrons and staff.
  • We are doing more cleaning in our buildings.
  • We have ordered additional supplies of disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer.
  • We are expecting staff to frequently clean all public services desks.
  • Staff are being encouraged to wash their hands frequently throughout the day.
  • It is impossible to clean all returned materials. However, it has always been the Library’s procedure to clean or discard soiled returned items.
  • We are monitoring the websites of the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the Northern Kentucky Health Departments.
  • Staff who are sick or who are exhibiting symptoms (including, but not limited to fever) are asked to stay home.

Will the library continue outreach deliveries and activities?
  • Our deliveries to home bound patrons who are not in long-term care facilities will continue as usual if they wish to receive visits during this time.  
Will you still be accepting donations?
  • The library will not accept donations until further notice.  
What services will be available should the library close? 
  • Bookdrops will continue to be monitored.
  • Wi-Fi is available 24/7 at the library in Bedford. 
  • Wi-Fi is available from 9:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. at the municipal building in Milton.  
  • Customers can use OVERDRIVE to check out e-books, audio books, and magazines.  
  • Customers can check out movies, music, e-books and audio books through HOOPLA.  
(Overdrive and Hoopla require a library card.  Call or email to set up a card.  [email protected]

Where can I find reliable information about the COVID-19 Virus?
