In light of the Coronavirus pandemic, we may have forgotten to respond to our 2020 US Census. By now, most households should have received an invitation through the mail. The Census is encouraging everyone to respond online or by phone.

Go to https://my2020census.gov. It only takes 10 minutes of your time.
If you do not have internet access, you can respond by phone, 7 days a week, 7am - 2pm EDT
- 1-844-330-2020 for English
- 1-844-468-2020 for Spanish
If you haven't receive your Census invitation, all you need is your physical address to respond online or by phone.

The U.S. Census is meant to represent everyone, so it's crucial everyone is counted.

Camden County Public Library will be closed at the end of business, March 16, 2020 at 6:30 p.m. This closing will be in effect until further notice.

Please stay update with the current news through the Centers for Disease Control and North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services.

The library offers a full array of digital content including eBooks and eAudiobooks that can be enjoyed from home by anyone with a East Albemarle Regional Library Card.

Also, please check out our library Facebook page for read-aloud videos and other suggested literacy activities to keep your children engaged during these challenging circumstances.

Library staff are available to answer questions during the hours of 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Please note: If you have library materials out, please do not concern yourself with overdue items or fines. NO OVERDUE FINES will be charged at this time. Our preference is for library patrons to please keep the materials they have out, rather than returning them to one of our book drops.
