With Covid-19 still going rampant the library has been visiting their Covid-19 rules monthly. The board and director check to see how Franklin county is doing and the country at large. Then debate what needs to stay the same and what can be changed.

Please keep in mind that we are just trying to keep everyone safe and healthy

That being said here are the new rules as of January 14, 2021

Happy 2021! What do we have planned for the new year?

January is Kansas Birthday month [mine too]. So I have planned a couple of “Kansas” activities.

We are putting together a “Kansas” packet for kids. It will include Kansas coloring pages, 2 crafts, a honeybee craft and a Salamander craft [Kansas insect and amphibian] we might add a treat in the bag too, maybe.

Since Kansas is the Wheat state the adults will be making “Bread in a Bag”.  Both of these craft do require you to sign up [we need to know how many to put together] The adult craft will be $2.00. Both craft will be ready for pick up by Thursday, November 28th just in time for Kansas day on the 29th

…

The Richmond Public Library will be CLOSED from December 24, 2020 through January 2, 2021 for the Christmas and New Years Holiday.

We will open at 2:00 PM on Monday, January 4th.

Wishing all our patrons a safe, healthy and happy holiday!
