DAVIESS COUNTY LIBRARY HAS PROGRESSED TO PHASE III as of Tuesday, June 23. This phase of our re-open plan will continue through the July board meeting, with a review on July 7 allowing adjustments.
Phase III requires masks to enter the building, hand sanitizer upon entry, all books returned to drop-box, social distancing when inside building, browsing one patron per aisle of shelves, one patron per computer station and two children (age 0-14) per one parent/adult. Patrons aged 15 years and older may enter to access computers, send faxes, make copies and to request books.
The main branch in Gallatin will allow 10 patrons admission at a time, with Jamesport allowing only 3 patrons at a time. Jamesport Branch Library will offer limited hours of service, 1-3pm, Thursdays and 9-noon, Saturdays.
Patrons may continue to call the library and request books for pick up if unable to wear masks or prefer to continue contactless service. Depending upon time of day, holds will be filled same day. Please return any materials you currently have to our book drop, then confirm your bag with your Patron ID number. No inter-library loans available at this time. 
We hope this encourages you to come back and see us!
