It’s an exciting time for Mineral County’s libraries as hours are expanding and new programs are opening up.
After a year of reduced hours and modified services due to COVID-19 safety restrictions, the libraries are opening their doors more and more while still maintaining social distancing and taking extra precautions.
In Keyser, the new hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Tuesday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
“The Children’s librarian/programmer at Keyser has been working hard putting together a thrilling “May Mystery Program!” said Heather Haynes, library director. “The kids are going to solve the mystery of a missing cartoon character. The premise for the program is that the librarians need the children’s help with a mystery that’s occurred at the library.”
