Face mask distribution set for Richland Library North Main

October 27, 2020

Richland Library is partnering with Richland County Councilwoman Yvonne McBride to get face masks into the hands of local residents within her district.

Starting Wednesday, October 28, customers can pick up the disposable face masks during curbside service from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. and 2 – 6 p.m., Monday – Saturday at our North Main location (5306 North Main Street). They’re available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.

“Richland County Council’s goal is to keep our communities healthy and safe during the pandemic,” says McBride. “This joint effort with the library allows council an opportunity to connect with our most vulnerable populations, make sure they have equitable access to the necessary supplies and protect against the spread of COVID-19.”

The partnership is part of a larger effort to help residents follow Richland County’s mask ordinance, which requires most people older than 10 to wear face coverings in public. To learn more, visit www.richlandcountysc.gov/facemasks.
