Bucks County expects to distribute 300,000 COVID-19 antigen home test kits at three distribution sites over the next few weeks.

The Petersburg Public Library is offering help to those who want to order the free COVID at-home test kits but don't have access to a computer or need assistance.

Last week, the federal government announced that it would be delivering up to four free tests per household. Tests will be shipped out starting late January or early February.

You can stop by the library's drive-thru or call (804) 733-2387 for a staff member to assist you in ordering the tests.

Library drive-thru window hours are Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday 10:00am to 5:00pm, Tuesday and Thursday 1:00pm to 7:45pm. The snow will affect hours of operation.
