I do have a card with digital privileges at my local public library. I am pretty sure I can check out books for curb delivery in addition to digital access. Between that and the internet I should be able to get what I need.
I actually understand the closure. With many patrons handling books from shelves and moving through various library resources it would be likely infection zone.
As an old guy, I have always enjoyed libraries. Taking command of a large desk and spreading out with a stack of large format references is nirvana.
Hopefully, I will have my SciFi adventure ready to go before the IF Comp submission deadline.
