The process to receive a COVID-19 vaccine could be cumbersome.  People have to register through the CDC Vaccine Administration System, or VAMS, if they haven't been contacted by a doctor, municipality or other entity.  The state Department of Public Health has a link to do so on their website.  Then VAMS will verify registration and follow up with scheduling information.  Ridgefield Library staff is offering to help older residents who may be unfamiliar with computers and don't yet have an email address, which is required.  The librarians routinely help the public navigate government websites for things like unemployment, taxes and insurance.  They also help people set up email addresses every day.  Anyone needing assistance can contact the Ridgefield Adult Services Librarian (by phone at 203-438-2282 x12004 -Monday-Friday 9am-5pm, Saturday 10am-1pm or email at ReferenceDesk@ridgefieldlibrary.org.
