Dear reader,
After careful deliberation, Skidompha has decided to close, effective immediately. We are tentatively scheduled to reopen on April 1, and are actively monitoring the news and are following the best recommendations from the State of Maine and the CDC.
The Skidompha Secondhand Book Shop will also be closed, effective immediately. Please do not bring any book donations to the Skidompha Secondhand Book Shop until we reopen.
We feel that closing Skidompha is the best way that we can support our community effort to discourage crowds during this challenging time.
You may keep all checked out materials until we reopen (regardless of what your account due date reflects.) As always, we will not charge late fees as long as you bring your library materials back. If you are encountering a problem with your account, please contact call us at 207-563-5513 and leave a message. We will do our best to resolve account issues during our closure.
All AARP Tax appointments have been cancelled through April 8. We do not yet know when (or if) they will be rescheduled. We expect to hear specific guidance from the IRS over the next few weeks. Please check your email or our website for any further announcements.
We know this closure will adversely impact some of our patrons. If you are in need of social services, we encourage you to review this helpful list of services from 211 Maine.
In solidarity and good health,
Matthew Graff
Executive Director
Skidompha Library
