State of Emergency:

When the Governor declares a state of emergency for the entire state or Sussex County, the library will be closed. The Library Director will notify those employees to be affected and make a public announcement via radio and/or television. If the emergency is declared after the library opens, the Director will set the time of closing.

Special Events:

Closing for special events will be decided on a case-by-case basis by the Delmar Public Library Commission.
