The San Mateo County Libraries are celebrating the expansion of library hours and services in Pacifica! Beginning in August 2 with increased access to library services and spaces by expanding hours. During new library open hours, we invite you to browse and check out items, pick up holds, and make use of meeting rooms and equipment. Our libraries are youth settings, so masks are still required for both vaccinated and unvaccinated patrons. The libraries will continue to monitor public health guidelines to ensure that everyone remains safe and healthy during this next phase of reopening.

These services are the next step forward in a careful and thoughtfully phased approach to reinstituting library offerings and access. Library staff has been awaiting this next step and are excited to offer more services and impactful experiences.

New Library hours:

Do you still prefer a convenient curbside experience? We will have updated Curbside Services for motor vehicles, which will be offered during open library hours at all locations. To use this service, simply pull into our designated curbside parking spot and give us a call or text and we will come outside to deliver your items to you by hand.

You can continue to get in touch with our friendly and helpful Customer Care team and subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date on our program offerings, online resources, and important news about our services.

San Mateo County Libraries are where you go for information assistance. Did you know there are public resources available for COVID-19 vaccinations and rent relief? Our staff can help you navigate the online process to register for a vaccination appointment (myturn.ca.gov) or apply for the state rent relief program (housing.ca.gov). Visit one of our local libraries – we’re here to help!
