When the Cobb declaration of emergency ended on Nov. 16, that included the dropping of mask mandates at most indoor county facilities.
At county library branches, patrons also were subject to temperature screenings before they were allowed to enter indoor areas.
The library system sent out a notice Tuesday that while screenings are no longer required, you’re still encouraged to wear a mask indoors “for extended stays or when attending programs.”
The mandates were reimposed in August by Cobb Commission Chairwoman Lisa Cupid, who renewed the 30-day order twice after that.
The only county buildings where masks are still required are at courthouses, which are operating under a separate order issued by the Supreme Court of Georgia.
Library patrons can continue to order items to be picked up curbside. The hours at the East Cobb, Gritters, Mountain View Regional Sewell Mill branches are Monday-Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 5-7 p.m.; Thursday-Friday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.

All Cobb library branches will be closed from Wednesday-Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday and will reopen for regular hours on Saturday.
