Due to the Governor’s order extending the “Stay at Home” order until at least May 15th, the Red River Parish Library will remain closed. A few weeks ago Librarian Trey Lewis told The Journal they hoped to be open by this week.
Lewis has had to revise that estimate. Lewis said, “We had hoped to reopen the library on or about the first of May. Due to continuing high infection rates in certain areas of Louisiana, the Governor has extended the stay at home order until at least the 15th of the month.”
“With luck this will not be extended beyond this point and we can return to normal or near normal service around the 16th,” said Lewis. He added, “Until that time please continue using our Overdrive online book service accessible through our library webpage www.redriverlibrary.org. Best wishes to everyone and stay safe.”
