The Cornish Library has closed temporarily after the heating system failed. 

The city said Wednesday that the library will likely remain closed until at least the spring, as it's expected to take several months to receive a replacement unit amid pandemic-related supply-chain issues. 

The city said books and other materials placed on hold at the library on 20 West Gate, off of Sherbrook Street, can instead be picked up at Harvey Smith Library on 999 Sargent Ave., beginning Friday.
