            [March 16, 2020]  
            
			As 
			you are aware due to concerns over the coronavirus Governor Pritzker 
			has closed down all public schools, restaurants, and bars. Many 
			public libraries have decided to close as well.  | 
        
            | 
			
			 The director and board of the Lincoln Public 
			Library District have made the difficult decision to close the 
			Lincoln Public Library until further notice at 1:00 today, March 16, 
			2020. This was not a decision that was made lightly, however the 
			safety of our patrons and staff is our highest priority and will 
			remain so. 
 No fines or late fees will be accrued during this time.
 
 All items on holds will be extended until one week after the library 
			reopens.
