Dear Whitefish Bay Community,
During the ongoing health crisis, the Whitefish Bay Public Library staff and Board of Trustees are committed to finding new and creative ways to safely fulfill our mission to be a cornerstone of the community that is dedicated to connecting all people, inspiring a love of learning and providing access to ideas, information and resources.
As the local crisis intensifies, the library will return to curbside and virtual services as of Thursday November 19, 2020, in an effort to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Since we are reverting to no in-building services, we have expanded our curbside pick-up hours and our virtual services. Below is a list of library services patrons can use virtually or via curbside pick-up.
