Due to recent COVID-19 developments in Ontario, the Sault Ste. Marie Public Library will be delaying its next step in reopening. The James L. McIntyre Centennial Library will continue to be open Monday to Friday from 1 pm to 6 pm, and Saturdays from 10 am to 1 pm, however the North Branch will remain closed.

Curbside service is still available by appointment. Though the Library is not currently charging late fines, we ask that you be considerate and return library materials when you are done with them. For the public’s safety, all returns are placed into quarantine before they are returned to the shelves.

Those entering the Library building, please remember you are expected to wear a mask or face covering, as per the provincial mandate. Occupancy is still limited to 35 members of the public in the library at a time.

The Friends of the Library Bookstore has reopened and is limited to 3 customers at a time. The Library, while it appreciates the community’s generosity, is not currently accepting book donations.
Ontario’s public libraries are actively monitoring the evolving situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Public libraries are working closely with local municipalities, public health authorities and Ontario’s library services agencies to make timely, responsible decisions about programming, services and access. For up-to-date information about the status please consult the Library’s website www.ssmpl.ca or reach out to us through social media.
