Alafaya Branch Temporarily Closed

Alafaya Branch is closed until May 1. A staff member tested positive for COVID-19, so out of an abundance of caution, the branch will be closed while it undergoes a deep cleaning. We plan to reopen the branch on Saturday, May 1. The book drop will remain open for customers to return materials during the closure.
