The Las Animas-Huerfano Counties District Health Department has ordered (Ammended PHO 20-06, p 17) that all public library buildings remain closed to the public until at least July 1.

“Libraries, both public and private, are limited to providing window service, walk-up service, drive-through service, or curbside delivery.”

The Library may be closed but you can still check out books and DVDs!
