WEATHER CLOSING POLICY

Though some situations may require altered hours of operation or complete closure of one or more Springfield-Greene County Library branches, all reasonable attempts will be made to keep libraries open during weather-related or unplanned events.

Library facilities including drive-up service will not open until 10 a.m. if the corresponding public school district in your community closes due to inclement weather.

Early closings as well as all-day closings of individual branches or the entire Springfield-Greene County Library District will be announced to the public via electronic resources, signage, the media and the Library's weather hotline, 616-0620.

These branch libraries will follow the 10 a.m. late opening if these school districts close due to bad weather:
