Visit a Lake County Public Library Branch!

Walk-in hours are rolling out to all of our branches over the next few weeks. Check the hours below to see if your branch is ready!

Note: Hours are subject to change based on staff availability. 

If your branch is not offering walk-in hours, you can still schedule library time with them.

And of course, we're still offering curbside service during our open hours!

Know Before You Go:

• Masks are required.
• If you feel sick, stay home.
• Maintain six feet of distance from other library patrons and staff.
• Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
• Plastic covers are available for computer keyboards and mice upon request.

• Computers are disinfected once per day and upon request (be aware that disinfecting takes 15 minutes to complete.)
