Welcome Alumni!
The library will be open special hours for reminiscing!
Our regular hours Friday and Saturday are 9-1 and we will stay open from 1-5 both days for self-guided nostalgia tours (but no library business from 1-5).
Front Entrance Closed
The front entrance of the library is closed while they repair the front steps. The side entrance, near Kent's Mary Patterson building, and the back entrance are still open. The book return has been moved to near the back entrance (facing the alley behind Cooper's Insurance). Sorry for the inconvenience.
COVID Test Kits
The library has Home Test kits from the Ohio Department of Health. You will need a computer or device with an internet connection, camera, and microphone to use the test. Tests will be distributed through curbside pickup only, at the back door (facing alley). Please call 330-385-2048 opt. 1, to arrange for curbside pickup of a test. Do not enter the library if you are experiencing symptoms or quarantining.
