This is a Florida Library Delivery Service Alert In lieu of Governor DeSantis' stay-at-home order, the Florida Library Delivery Service will close at the end of the day on Thursday, April 2. Bags currently in transit will be warehoused by the delivery company until the order is lifted and TBLC has reopened the service. We hope this is in May, but no date has been set. Please be safe and consult the CDC website for information about the Coronavirus Disease 2019. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/index.html
