Due to the recent dramatic increase in regional COVID-19 cases, the Board of Directors and staff of Shepherdstown Public Library have made the difficult decision to suspend patron entry into the library building. To check out books, cds, dvds, and all other materials, please place holds via our online catalog (www.sheplibrary.org); upon receiving an “arrived holds” email, call the library at 304-876-2783 to arrange a pickup time. Held materials will be on a table immediately inside the library’s front doors. If you experience difficulties placing holds, call us and we will happily assist you.

Story times are canceled indefinitely. Ongoing library services will include copying, faxing, and notary. Overdue fines are suspended; for damaged library materials, contact us about replacement costs. For general questions or inquiries, please call the library or email hali@sheplibrary.org. For questions specific to children’s and young adult materials, email youth@sheplibrary.org.

COVID tests will be mailed to you for free by filling in your name and mailing address at www.COVIDtests.gov. If you need assistance, contact the library, and we will be happy to fill out the form over the phone.
