Winter is really here now! Here’s a brief reminder of the
Library’s weather closing and cancellation procedures. Details are available at www.ridgefieldlibrary.org.
The Library does not automatically follow the lead of the
schools or town offices when deciding whether to close due to severe weather. Our decisions are made based on our own
estimations of projected impact in our location during our open hours. When a
decision is made to close early, open late or not to open at all, this
information will be posted on our website, communicated via email blast and
social media, and sent to regional web and broadcast media. If the Library
closes for all or part of the day, no fines will be charged.
If the Library closes due to weather, all programs are
cancelled or postponed. Some programs
may be cancelled even if the Library remains open for business. When the school
district cancels classes outright because of weather, all scheduled children’s and
teen programs for the day are cancelled automatically. If the schools announce
an early dismissal, afternoon children’s and teen programs are cancelled automatically.
If the schools announce a late opening, morning children’s programs are
cancelled automatically. Adult program
cancellations are made at the discretion of Library staff on a case by case
basis.
