Our goal is to participate in efforts to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission in order to keep Library staff and visiting community members safe while visiting the Library. Therefore wearing of masks is required when visiting the Library (with the exception of persons with a health condition that prevents the use of a mask, and children under age two). Also, there is a cap on the number of persons in the Library at any one time, which is 50. Please do not visit the Library if you are feeling unwell, sick, etc. While visiting the Library, please utilize safe practices by social distancing, wash hands regularly, use hand sanitizer, etc.

Zelie Library's Contactless Curbside Pickup service will continue for now. To requests materials (books, DVDs, etc.) to pick up outside of the Library so that you don't have to come in-- simply call 724-452-9330, or place your requests online by logging into your Zelienople Area Public Library's patron account at bcfls.tlcdelivers.com . Use the barcode number on the back of your Zelie Library card. The Library will call you when your requested items are ready for you to pick up. When you decide to come to the Library to pick up your requested items, you will need to call the Library 15 minutes prior to your arrival, and we will get the items ready and placed outside for you to pickup.

ADDITIONAL UPDATE: The Library's Book Drop is open, so that you can return checked out materials. For the safety of the public and staff, returned materials will undergo a quarantine period of 72 hours; therefore returned items may be listed on your account after you’ve returned them.
