“Keeping in mind that not everyone has access to technology and perhaps no access to the internet, the Arlington Public Library is a resource for access and connectivity,” Library Director Norma Zuniga said. “Computers are available at all library locations and staff are ready to assist with the COVID vaccination registration process. We want to be part of the solution and are here to help.”
As directed by the Texas Department of State Health Services, Tarrant County Public Health, and other Texas-based health entities, vaccinations are being provided in phases. Vaccine appointments will first go to those most at-risk. As more vaccine is made available, additional groupings will be added until everyone is covered.
If you plan on visiting the Library to use this service, please inform our staff at your arrival. They will provide assistance setting you up on a computer and printer. Library staff is not part of the vaccination system. If you have any questions, please reach out to the Tarrant County Public Health COVID-19 Hotline at 817-248-6299 or visit its website.
