The Prince William Health District (PWHD) Call Center is getting some assistance from area libraries.
Staff members from the 12 branches in the Prince William Public Libraries (PWPL) are scheduling vaccine appointments and offering phone support.
To reach the call center, call 703-872-7759 between 9 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Sunday.
Because employees are helping at the call center, only Contact-Free Curbside Pickup Service will be provided, according to an article on the county’s website.
While community members can’t go into the facilities, services are still available.
Visitors may set up a time to pick up items by calling the branch of their choosing or visiting the PWPL webpage.
