OAK PARK, Mich. (AP) — Bugs in a library — again.

The Oak Park Public Library in suburban Detroit was closed Wednesday for a scrubbing after bedbugs were found in two chairs in the computer area. A library nearby in Royal Oak was closed Sunday and part of Monday after staff said unwanted visitors crawled out of a just-returned DVD case.

The library in Oak Park will reopen Thursday.

“We feel that taking every available action to ensure our public spaces are safe, comfortable and accessible for both our staff and community members goes without question here,” the library said on Facebook.
