There are 2 libraries close to my house. They've been closed since before the pandemic for remodeling. No word when they will re-open.

Where I live, the libraries were closed and then opened briefly, but are closed again.

Ours in Chicago is open to pick up books. Put a "hold" on the book online and get nofitifed when it's ready to be picked up. Not as good as being able to go into the stacks, but the system is working and it's better than not having a library at all.

Our's never opened. They have service though. You can place holds for books. You can pick them up and return books through one window (by the old book drop) You can call the library (librarians are working from home) to requests books, etc. Book trucks operate between branches, carrying books back and forth.

ours are,
but you can't go in just to browse b/c if you pick up a book to look it has to be quarantined,
I like to go in and look inside a book before I take them home,
so for now I don't bother.
online requests are operational

There is online and curbside and open by appointment only. Call for a day and time. I am not sure how many are allowed in at one time.

Our libraries in Lincoln, NE are open weekdays and Saturday (10:00 AM - 8:00 PM) and Sunday (noon - 8:00 PM). Must wear a mask, one hour limit inside the library per person and returned items are held 72 hours before being checked back in and returned to shelves/other customers.
During the earlier stages of Covid our libraries were closed, but patrons could sign up for books/audio materials on-line. When we received an email from the branch library, we would drive there and call them to let them know we were there to pick up our materials. A librarian would place our items in plastic bags (in the enclosure between the two front doors) and we took them off a table which eliminated any person-to-person contact.
Cannot imagine not having a library! So grateful our City libraries have been so helpful within our community and worked so diligently to keep the books/audio materials (and now open again) available to everyone.
