JACKSON – The Jackson Library remains closed due to a failure of the building’s air conditioning system.
The library anticipates reopening to the public once there is a temporary unit in place for the branch, while the air conditioning system gets fully repaired. Updates about the status of the branch will be available at theoceancountylibrary.org website and via social media.
Items currently awaiting pickup at the Jackson Library will be transferred to the Manchester Branch of the Ocean County Library, 21 Colonial Drive, 732- 657-7600, or at any branch that a patron wishes to request due to the closure.
All items on hold for customers will be extended through Monday, August 12. Jackson Branch patrons may return borrowed items to on-site drop boxes, or to any OCL branch.
Patrons who wish to send their holds to an alternate location or who have general questions may call OCL’s main number 732-349-6200. Patrons of the branch are encouraged to visit other library locations to check out books and materials or attend programs. An Ocean County Library card may be used at all OCL locations.
Card holders can also access the library’s online resources, databases, eBooks, eMagazines, video and audio streams and digital classes, available continuously at theoceancountylibrary.org.
