EPL’s updated response to the Coronavirus Outbreak

Euclid Public Library. Euclid Public Library is closed until further notice in an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Coronavirus. Euclid Public Library will suspend all fines during our closure. We ask you to please keep all checked-out items until the library resumes normal business hours.

  • Euclid Public Library is committed to serving the needs of the public while also
    working to ensure the safety and health of our customers, staff and the community.
  • The world is experiencing an unprecedented health crisis threatening our citizens. Early
    action in stemming the spread of the Coronavirus, or COVID-19, is critical.
  • In response to Gov. Mike DeWine’s orders closing all K-12 schools and prohibiting mass
    gatherings, Euclid Public Library will close effective at 5 p.m. on Friday, March 13, and
    will remain closed until further notice.
  • This decision was not made lightly. The scientific evidence that early social distancing can
    help stop the spread of the Coronavirus is a compelling factor in taking this precautionary
    step on behalf of our customers, staff and the community during this pandemic.
  • We will continue to follow guidelines provided by our local, county and state health officials
    and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
  • While our library will be closed for this extended period of time, digital library resources
