BAD WEATHER POLICY:
The Elsie Public Library will be closed on those days that the Ovid-Elsie Area Schools are closed, due to bad weather and road conditions.
Any daily and weekly materials that fall due on a day that we close because of the weather will be due on our next open day. Any other materials that fall due on a day that we close because of the weather will be renewed for one week.
EMERGENCY CLOSINGS POLICY:
The library Director shall have sole responsibility for adjusting opening or closing times, or deciding to close the library entirely for emergency reasons. Any such adjustment of scheduled hours will be based on a concern for the welfare of the staff and patrons and must be reported to the Board of Trustees at the next meeting. Reasons for an emergency closing may include but are not limited to:
1. Inclement weather: The library may be closed whenever the main roads leading to and from the library itself are no longer safe to travel.
2. Environmental problems within the building that might pose a serious health or safety risk to staff or patrons.
