Overstrand UIF Dates for August 2025
The Department of Labour will be in the Overstrand on the following dates.
All libraries in the Overstrand will re-open on Monday, 24 August 2020, after being closed for almost five months because of the coronavirus lockdown.
The temporary hours are Mondays to Fridays from 10:00 to 15:30. The shorter times ensure that the necessary sanitising can be done for your safety. Libraries are closed on Saturdays. Hermanus and Mt Pleasant Libraries will have a lunch break between 13:00 - 13:45.
Library personnel will work at a 50% capacity and limited services are offered. Only a certain amount of people will be allowed in the libraries for a maximum of 30 minutes; this will ensure that all have an opportunity to visit the library.
Members must please be mindful of the precautions that need to be taken as there are lots of changes we’ve had to make in order to meet regulations. We ask patrons to please be patient during this time.
Precautionary Covid-19 safety measures:
Book online and collect
Members can make use of the Online Library Catalogue to see the availability of books and to find out if the library has a specific title you want to read. Library books can also be renewed on this platform.
Go to the Municipal website www.overstrand.gov.za. At the bottom of the page, click on Web Links, then click on ‘libraries’ and SLIMS to request library materials. Alternatively, go to wc.slims.gov.za/desktop/desktopwcheplhe.
Requests can also be sent via email to the chief librarian of your local library. Details required include library card number, name and surname, identity number, physical address and contact number.
Library staff will collate all books and other library material and phone or email patrons, within two days of the request, with arrangements for collection. Please keep in mind that books might be in quarantine and not available.
Covid-19 safety protocols:
All members must please adhere to the Covid-19 precautionary measures, such as hand sanitizing, social distancing and the wearing of face masks.
Kindly note that all members that enter the library need to fill in their details into a register and that they will be screened with a digital thermometer
