When the Abington Public Library had to shutter its building March 13 due to COVID-19, the move came as a blow to its staff members.
“Not being able to provide the town with the open and welcoming community center — which is what libraries are — is heartbreaking,” said Deborah Grimmett, the town’s library director.
But it did not take long for the library to find a way to continue serving the public despite the pandemic.
