THUNDER BAY — Concerns about an incident of close contact with a positive COVID-19 case have caused the temporary closure of the Waverley Library.
The Thunder Bay Public Library announced Monday afternoon that a member of its staff who had the contact is awaiting COVID test results.
"Although the risk to staff and the public is low, the library has consistently adopted a safe and slow approach to reopening library service for the community," the statement said.
The Waverley branch is closed for an undetermined amount of time.
It will reopen for curbside service after health officials declare it is safe and after the library has undergone a deep cleaning.
Curbside service continues at the Brodie Library and the Mary JL Black Library Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
