A sign announcing a halt to dine-in service greets customers at the Junkyard Cafe. Co-owner Karla Holman said the cafe had to ask guests to leave Tuesday in order to comply with Gov. Kim Reynolds’ noon order moving all restaurants in Iowa to drive-through, carry-out and delivery only until 11:59 p.m. March 31. The Junkyard is still taking orders for delivery and pickup. Beginning Friday, the cafe’s temporary new hours will be daily from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 5 to 8 p.m. ANDREW McGINN | JEFFERSON HERALD

Like men who forge a brotherhood in combat, the volunteers of PAWS (including, from left, Ann Wenthold, Shannon Hagen and Angela Milakovich) are making the most of caring for dogs and cats at the Greene County Animal Shelter, where conditions take a toll on animals and humans alike. They worry the drive to raise $1.13 million for a new shelter is beginning to stall as more organizations seek money of their own. ANDREW McGINN | JEFFERSON HERALD PHOTOS

Jane Millard, director of the Jefferson Public Library, holds up a reel of microfilm containing a historical Greene County newspaper. Microfilm is still the best way to preserve newspapers, but it’s not the most user friendly. Millard digitized the library’s archive of Jefferson newspapers in 2013, making them searchable online by keyword, and now looks forward to adding the county’s other papers to the site.
