Coronavirus Update 3/15/20
All Department of Cultural Affairs libraries, museums and historic sites, including this facility, are temporarily closed to the public as a public health precaution due to the COVID-19 (coronavirus). These closures are part of the larger effort by state government to minimize public exposure. Please continue to visit this website for updates and to explore online resources and collections.
The New Mexico State Library is closed for in-person services until further notice.
We are, however, continuing to provide reference service by telephone and email, and continuing our state-wide interlibrary loan services while minimizing face-to-face contact as directed by Governor Lujan Grisham. The rural bookmobile service will not be operating. Books by Mail and the Library for the Blind and Print Disabled are continuing services at a reduced staffing level. If you need to reach library staff, please call the number below and leave a message.
