The Archbold Community Library is now distributing at-home COVID-19 test kits. The tests are provided by the State of Ohio and are free to the public.

The tests are taken at-home, self-administered and can provide test results in as few as 15 minutes. The COVID-19 at-home nasal swab test has been authorized by the FDA under the Emergency Use Authorization for the detection of the proteins from SARS-CO-2 only and not for any other viruses. 

Gathering Volumes, Archbold Community Library, and Ohio Northern University Rudolph H. Raabe College of Pharmacy are excited to host a virtual visit with Eric Eyre, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Death in Mud Lick, named a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times and nominated for a 2021 Edgar Allan Poe Award. Mr. Eyre will be speaking with the community virtually on the day of the paperback release of Death in Mud Lick, Tuesday, April 6, at 6:30 PM.

Nothing about 2020 is going how we had planned, and the annual Summer Reading Program is no exception. Though things are looking different at the library this summer, families and children of all ages can still count on having access to high quality activities throughout June in July in the form of virtual storytimes, STEAM grab-and-go bags, adventure kits available for checkout, and even a Storywalk at Ruihley Park.
