Librarians Help in Fire Efforts

Librarians Donna Kerr and Mel Lightbody work at the Emergency Operations Center for Mendocino County, answering telephone calls from concerned county residents.

The Mendocino County Library Staff did its part during the current wildfire crisis here in Mendocino County. Staffers Donna Kerr, Bruce Loberg and Mel Lightbody worked the Fire Information Line.

The library will have copies of the latest alerts at each branch and will be able to provide information and referrals to anyone interested. We recommend specific questions be addressed to the fire information line at 707-467-2520. Here is the latest update.

Mendocino Wildfire Information Update

This is not fog.

Just wanted to alert people to a few good fire related websites:

Here is a link to the best wildfire location maps that I've found. Here is another. Peter Armstrong's pictures are here.

Mendocino County suggests regularly checking their Office of Emergency Services site to get updates on air quality and evacuation information.

Come to the libraries get some materials to watch and read and stay out of the unhealthy air.
