has the drive through open so you can still put books on hold and get them when they notify you. I mostly use ebooks, I read them on my tablet or pc and I have a Kindle too...so maybe you can get them that way...

(5,260 posts)7. My library was closed over the weekend.
Monday, I went and grabbed some books off the shelf. Lucky move. The next day they announced they were closing that evening. Opening again, who knows?
Being a library user, books I own never get read. If the library is closed too long, I guess their time will come.
