Ohio Mask Mandate

Beginning November 16th at 12:01 AM, all of Ohio will be under a mandatory mask order while out in public, as announced by Governor DeWine. Failure to adhere to these rules will result in the health department closing the library.

Masks must be worn at all times when:

  • At an indoor location that’s not a residence
  • Outdoors, when unable to keep 6 feet social distance from those not in your household
  • When waiting for, riding, driving, or operating public transportation -taxi, car service, private rideshare

This order only requires those who are 10 years old or older to wear a mask. In addition, the following do NOT need to wear a mask:

  • Those with a medical condition or a disability or those communicating with someone with a disability
  • Those who are actively exercising or playing sports
  • Those who are officiants at religious services
  • Those who are actively involved in public safety or
  • Those who are actively eating or drinking

If you arrive at the library without a mask, we will have masks available for your use.
