'It's in an area where there's isn't a book around for at least 30 feet.'
On Sunday, December 25, 2022, the Hammond Public Library suffered a water line break. Due to the frigid temperatures, an overhead sprinkler line froze and burst on the second floor of the library. This caused extensive damage throughout the entire building. For the safety of the public during assessment and repairs, the library will be closed to the public for an undetermined amount of time.
While the building is closed to the public, the library staff is still here to serve you. While our physical collection will not be available for use, our digital collection will be. The public will still be able to connect to many of our e-resources for learning material or reading material. As always, we are available to assist in the use of these resources.
. For in-person services that we cannot currently provide, you may reach out to the following local libraries:· Gary Public Library; 886-2484· Whiting Public Library; 659-0269 We appreciate your patience during this difficult time. The Hammond Public Library will assess, repair, and reopen for our community as soon as we can. Please follow our social media channels for regular updates.© 2022 CBS Broadcasting Inc.
