To help slow the spread of COVID-19, the Pico Branch Library, 2201
Pico Blvd., will temporarily suspend in-person branch service and resume curbside
pickup beginning Tuesday, January 11, 2022.
The Main Library will continue to provide the Santa Monica
community with in-person library services. Patrons can also access curbside
service at the Montana Avenue Branch and contactless self-service at the Ocean
Park Branch.
The Santa Monica Public Library will continue to follow all state and local COVID-19 health guidelines.
