CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Public Library opens its doors Monday at 10 a.m.

The library visits will be limited to an hour and 15 minutes to allow everyone to safely access the library and its resources.

A popular utility at the library is the computers so they’ve been reconfigured to accommodate social distancing.

The library has placed time limits on computers so visitors are limited to one hour.

Children up to 18 years old can receive a grab and go meal at all 27 neighborhood branches.

"So the kids and the adults in each neighborhood really depend on us. We're the place where the community congregates and comes together to get their entertainment get things they need to read, learn. We have programs all throughout the year, so people have been wanting us to get back up and running," said John Skrtic, director of CPL.

Curbside is still available at all Cleveland Public Library Branches for anyone who is still concerned with entering the building.
