COVID-19 Check-In Thread Part IV

[Inquisitive Raven]

So most branches of the Philadelphia public library are closed due to Covid including the one nearest me. All of them were closed at the beginning of the pandemic but then the city opened a few select branches for people to pick up holds by appointment. I got a book that way and it was due to be returned yesterday. I got to the relevant branch (the only one I consider to be in walking distance other than the one nearest me) only to find that not only was the building closed due to me getting there after hours, but the book drop was padlocked shut. Apparently, that branch is closed for reasons unrelated to the pandemic, and I need to find someplace else to return the book. Fortunately, the library has eliminated late fees.
