Anne Arundel County Public Law Library Closed for the Juneteenth Independence Day Holiday

The Anne Arundel County Public Law Library and the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County will be closed on Monday, June 20, 2022 for the Juneteenth holiday. The law library and court will reopen on Tuesday, June 21, 2022.

Juneteenth became a federal holiday in 2021 when President Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act. Read the Presidential Proclamation from June, 18, 2021 here. Juneteenth (June 19th) commemorates the anniversary of the last African American slaves being freed in Texas, more than two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Visit the govinfo page to find out more.

Except on Court Holidays, the Library is open Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. A list of Court Holidays can be found at mdcourts.gov.
