Stone Memorial Library
CONNEAUTVILLE - Stone Memorial Library is offering Curb side Pickup Service! You may reserve books online using our “holds” feature, or by calling us at 814-587-2142 and make your request over the phone during our updated business hours. Please note that all online hold requests will not be filled until the next business day. We will contact you to schedule a pickup time once we have filled your request. All pickups will be bagged and ready for you in front of the library at the agreed upon time. We are unfortunately not able to offer any service inside of the building at this time, including computer access, materials browsing, or copying. We do still provide free WiFi, which can be accessed outside of our building. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at 814-587-2142. We are willing to work with you during this time and do what it takes to get our books in the hands of those who want to read them!
We reopened our doors for limited library services on Monday, August 17. Masks will be required for entry into the library. If you are unable to wear a mask due to medical reasons, we ask that you continue to use our Curbside Pickup Service option, which we will continue to offer. Appointments will be recommended, especially for the use of our computers. Computer use will be limited to a maximum of 45 minutes, and we ask that our patrons try to limit their browsing time to a maximum of 15 minutes. We also graciously ask that our patrons continue to respect social distancing while in the library. If you have any further questions about our limited library services, please feel free to give us a call at 814-587-2142. In spite of the limitations, we look forward to seeing you all again soon!
