Your Health and Safety Is Our Priority

Based on the recommendations issued by the State of California and Placer County's Public Health officer related to aggressive social distancing to help curtail further spread of COVID-19 in our community, the Lincoln Public Library is closed until further notice. During this period, we will continually assess this developing situation to determine the length of closure. Please check back frequently for updated information regarding reopening.
