Cloquet library opens with limited use, new rules

The Cloquet Public Library opened to the public this week. It will remain open 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday with limited services. Users will be able to browse the collections and check out materials, use library computers by appointment, and make copies and print. Curbside pickup will still be available during regular hours. The Cloquet Public Library is not offering in-person programs or use of its meeting spaces.

To ensure safety, users should limit their time in the library, maintain 6 feet of social distancing, wear masks and stay home if they don’t feel well. All staff will wear masks and regularly clean surfaces.

“We’ve appreciated your patience while we worked to open the library safely, and we’re excited to see our patrons again,” library director Beth Sorenson said. “Welcome back.”
