The Nevada County Community Library will reopen its branches today.
The library system closed March 2020, although it began offering curbside and front door pick-up services at several branches last May.
“It’s been just under 13 months, and it’s been a long 13 months of staff being as flexible as we can, and trying to help the community as much as we can, so we’re ready,” said Rachel Tucker, branch manager of the Madelyn Helling Library, on reopening. “We want to see you guys again.”
According to a press release, the Grass Valley, Madelyn Helling, and Truckee branches will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the Penn Valley branch will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., with all opening Monday to Friday.
