BPL Closing- Starting Wednesday, March 18th

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Phil Scott has announced a Continuity of Education Plan for the orderly dismissal of all schools, and cancellation of all school related activities, no later than Wednesday, March 18 and will last through April 6 — but may very well be extended for a longer period.

BPL will close for regular traffic beginning Wednesday, March 18^th. Librarians will be available during our regularly scheduled hours to answer questions over telephone and email. We will be happy to put books and other materials aside for you and schedule pickup times during regular hours. Wifi will be available in the parking area outside the library. Our efforts to support the 2020 Census continue, and we are happy to answer questions and direct you to appropriate resources as needed.
