Florida Public Library announces its reopening to the public on Sat., Aug 1. All Ramapo Catskill Library System (RCLS) cardholders can once more visit the library to check out books, DVDs, audiobooks, CDs, video games, magazines and more.
The number of people allowed in the building will be limited. All persons entering the library are required to wear face covering and observe social distancing requirements. Patrons are asked to enter through the rear door off the deck and exit through the side door; the front entrance will be closed. Hand sanitizer will be available at both doors. The stacks will be open for browsing, but patrons are asked not to linger so that more people can use the building.

For patrons not wishing to enter the building, curbside service will be available through Labor Day, Mon., Sept. 7, or longer, if necessary. Library fines are suspended through Labor Day.
