The closest stop is the Bank of America on Ojai Avenue and Blanche Street, which is about one block from the Library. For a free ride, riders can tell the driver they are going to the cooling center. The City of Ojai will open Kent Hall as a second cooling center if the Library reaches full capacity on those days. Any Kent Hall or City-related updates will be added to this post. La ciudad de Ojai ofrece viajes gratuitos en tranvía (www.ojaitrolley.com para obtener información y horarios) hacia y desde la biblioteca en los días en los que se espera que alcancen los 100 grados. La parada más cercana es Bank of America en Ojai Avenue y Blanche Street, que está aproximadamente a una cuadra de la biblioteca. Para un viaje gratis, los pasajeros pueden decirle al conductor que van al centro de enfriamiento. La ciudad de Ojai abrirá Kent Hall como segundo centro de enfriamiento si la biblioteca alcanza su capacidad máxima en esos días. Cualquier actualización relacionada con Kent Hall o la ciudad se agregará a esta publicación.
