Madison Public Libraries to Close at 1pm on Saturday, November 29

All Madison Public Library locations will close early - at 1pm - due to inclement weather on Saturday, November 29. All library events and all community events held in Madison Public Libraries after 1pm on Saturday will also be canceled.

Library customers may use the library remotely by using LINKcat to place holds, check library card records, or renew items. Library items may also be renewed by calling Telecirc (608-242-4700) or any open library. Library book drops will be open, but since the library no longer charges overdue fines, library users are encouraged to only return materials if they can do so safely.

As always, during City of Madison snow emergencies and days of extreme temperatures this season, please call the library you plan to visit in advance, as updates may occur throughout the week or programs may be canceled even if libraries are open. For broader City of Madison weather closures, check the City of Madison website at www.cityofmadison.com/winter. If you are in need of help, please use 211 Wisconsin to help connect with food, shelter, safety, or other community resources.
