Welcome to the FCPL Staff Blog


Welcome to the FCPL Staff Blog, which was created to connect with staff during the COVID-19 situation.  You should be able to reach this blog from the device and location of your choice.

We are on the third day of being closed to the public due to COVID-19.  When we made the decision last Friday to close beginning Sunday, we were one of the first systems in Georgia to make this decision.  As of 2:40 PM on Tuesday, 48 of 62 library systems in Georgia are closed and most of the remaining systems have closed some locations and/or cancelled programs and meeting room use.

We will make a decision about next week by Friday, March 20th, but expect to make it sooner.  As you likely know, the Forsyth County Schools will be closed through the end of Spring Break. 

Most supervisory staff are at work; some are working from home, taking leave time, or a combination of options.  Speaking just for HQ supervisors, it is quiet around here.  Social distancing is pretty easy, as we are spread throughout the building.  Yesterday evening we had our regularly scheduled Board meeting (pictured below). Instead of using the regular Board table, we used an arrangement (designed by Joan Dudzinski) that allowed for social distancing.
