Sebastopol Regional Library
Sebastopol Regional Library-To-Go will be temporarily closed Saturday, October 3 through Sunday, October 11, with plans to reopen Monday, October 12, 2026.
Following previously identified mold concerns and earlier testing at the library, conditions uncovered during the removal of wallpaper in a staff area have prompted us to conduct additional environmental testing on Monday, October 5.
The safety and well-being of our staff and the public are paramount. Closing temporarily allows this additional assessment to take place while we gather the information needed to determine whether further action is necessary.
We continue to collaborate with the City of Sebastopol as we address the immediate situation and navigate next steps for the overall facility project.
What patrons can expect during the temporary closure:
- Holds will be extended, including Bibliobox holds.
- Return dates will be extended for checked-out materials.
- The Bibliobus will be onsite next week to provide library service:
- Monday, 2–6 pm
- Wednesday, 10 am–2 pm
- Friday, 2–6 pm

About Sebastopol Regional Library
The Sebastopol Regional Library has roots in the first parcel map of Sebastopol drafted in 1871. The first modern use of the land was a schoolhouse. It later became Lincoln Hall and was used as a meeting place, city hall, and a community center. In 1916, through a Carnegie grant, Sebastopol’s Public Library was built, a modern library building dedicated for all. As Sebastopol grew, the Carnegie building proved inadequate for library functions, and, after the 1969 earthquake, it was deemed too costly to save. In 1974, a new library building was built on the site. The land where the current library stands has always been used for civic and educational purposes. In 2011, the library went through a major remodel, improving the shelving systems, adding more computers for public use, and incorporating the library concept of single-point-of-public-service, among other improvements.
