Pittston Memorial Library Closed

The Pittston Memorial Library will be closed on Wednesday, 7 November as advised by the City engineer due to safety issues with the current construction in the library parking lot. Please do not attempt to enter the library parking lot for any reason during this time.

The library is scheduled to re-open on Thursday, 8 November. However, parking and vehicle traffic will not be permitted in the library parking lot. Patrons may park on city streets, St. John the Evangelist Church or the Tomato Festival Lot.
