BROOKLINE, MA — All Brookline Public Libraries will reopen to the public starting Monday, Jan. 31 after a two-week closure due to COVID-19 staffing shortages. Two weeks ago, the libraries were experiencing daily absenteeism of up to 30 percent due to illness. However, the situation has improved enough for in-person services to resume. "We're so happy to announce that our staffing situation has improved, and we will be reopening our doors for regular, in-building library services on Monday, January 31," said the library in an announcement Tuesday. "We can't wait to see you all again!" From now until Monday, the library is still offering contactless services, including virtual events and take-home resources.
