According to Fort Bend County Libraries, the reopening permits visitors to browse book collections, complete a library-card application in person, use the computers and use study rooms on a limited basis.

Additionally, Fort Bend County residents are able to check out mobile WiFi hotspots and launchpads on a first-come, first-served basis.

Upon arrival, all visitors will undergo a temperature check and be required to wear a mask and follow social distancing guidelines while in the library.

Those unable to wear masks can utilize curbside pick-up service, which remains available at all locations including those now reopened.
