COVID-19 Update: For the health and well-being of our community, the library will be closed to all patrons and staff until further notice. 

• Per Governor Baker's order, all nonessential businesses in the Commonwealth have been ordered to close, effective March 23 - May 4, 2020. As such, the Swansea Free Public Library building is temporarily closed to the public and staff through May 4, 2020. While we have been working to find ways to continue to provide service to our patrons, the health of library staff and community members is our utmost concern.
• EMAIL LIBRARY STAFF: Staff will monitor the library email accounts remotely and will respond as quickly as is practicable. For general email questions, please use swansea@sailsinc.org. Unfortunately, library staff will be unable to answer library phones during this time.
• EBOOKS, VIDEOS, EMAGAZINES, TV, EDUCATIONAL DATABASES, and more: Please use our link above to access our DIGITAL LIBRARY
• BOOKS & MATERIALS: Please do not return library materials to the library until further notice; please hold onto them for now. Library book drops will be locked. No fines will be accrued for any items during this time.
• TAX FORMS: A supply of Massachusetts and Federal tax forms will still be available in the gazebo behind the library. Please help yourself to the forms you need. 
• CHECKED OUT MATERIALS FROM SAILS LIBRARIES: For public libraries, all materials due March 12 or later have been extended to June 4, 2020. As always, any materials checked out at the SFPL location do not incur fines, as we are a fine free library.
