Elkins Library is mask optional. If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask, we encourage you to do so and we have them available in the entryway. Curbside service is always available and our programs have a virtual option. Our building is equipped with two Clean Air-Curtain air purifiers that remove 99% of harmful substances from the air and we clean surfaces all day long.

The open hours are Monday and Tuesday 9-5 and Wednesday and Thursday 9-7; and Sat. 9-12. Our in-person programming is in full swing and we are offering a wide offering for all ages.
