The Morris Area Public Library said Thursday that it is no longer accepting passport appointments due to changes made by the federal government.

The library said in a statement on its Facebook page that since the library operates as a public library district rather than as a governmental entity, it is no longer allowed to serve as a passport acceptance facility.

It directed those wishing for passport services to the Morris Post Office.
