The Portage Regional Library may be closed due to COVID-19 safeguards, but is still providing service online.

“We’ve got a great regional library here," explains Portage la Prairie City Councilor Wayne Wall. "And there is access to a large array of titles through the e-library and the library app.”

The library will not have staff working at their facilities, but individuals will be popping in once a week to check messages.

Wall adds that the library has a lot to offer.

“You can learn about this service from the folks at the library. You can download all kinds of books and magazines to pass the time while you’re isolated.”

If people have questions they can send an email to the library at portlib@portagelibrary.com.
