COVID-19 FAQ’s

June 28, 2021 Update:
With the lifting of the statewide mask mandate UMFPL no longer requires masks for visitors to our building.

We encourage community members to follow the CDC's current recommendations for fully vaccinated individuals as well as guidance for those not yet, or not able to be, vaccinated.

During the Pandemic UMFPL will follow guidelines outlined by the PA Governor, Office of Commonwealth Libraries, or UMFPL Board of Trustees as appropriate for the situation.
