This just in from Cobb County Government:
Cobb’s Sewell Mill Library and Cultural Center has closed for deep cleaning after a COVID exposure.
Stay tuned for more information on when we can reopen.
The Sewell Mill Library this month has been holding classes from The Art Place, which is undergoing maintenance
Since Sewell Mill and several other branches opened with limited services in July, they have not been open on the weekends. Before the COVID outbreak, Sewell Mill had been open on Saturdays.
Shortly before the libraries and other government facilities were closed in March, the West Cobb Library was closed due to a COVID exposure at that branch, and a cleaning took place.
The other branches that have been open Monday-Friday since July are East Cobb and the Mountain View Regional Library.
Some browsing has been allowed, and patrons have been able to check out materials, get and renew library cards, use computers (on a limited basis) and get reference help. They have been encouraged to use curbside pickup when checking out materials.
Space to sit and read has not been available, nor have conference rooms, and the Sewell Mill branch’s creative studios also remain closed.
All library staff and patrons are also required to wear masks or face coverings.
