Thanks to those helping through restrictions

Kudos to those who are trying to make life bearable in this time of pandemic restrictions. Social distancing and shelter-at-home requests can winnow our days down to stuck-homeon-the-farm basics, so it was a wonderful surprise to find that the San Marcos Public Library is still making the effort to provide library materials to its patrons. Through sensible procedures, they have chosen to remain accessible to us while still safeguarding their employees. Their website (through City of San Marcos, click on “Departments”, then select “Library”) advises that holds placed online will be put on a cart when ready for pick up out front between certain hours.

I am so grateful for this extra-mile effort. They could have simply chosen to take time off, their pay likely guaranteed, but they chose to serve their patrons’ best interest. Thanks, San Marcus Public Library!.
