I've just read in a private Facebook group that High Life Highland in Inverness has cancelled its ScotlandsPeople bookings from January 11th-20th due to Covid, although the main Highland Archive facility remains open.
I've also just found this from Glasgow Registrars Service site at https://glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=17698, which was posted just before Christmas on Dec 17th - they had been hoping to take bookings again as of yesterday (5th January):
In light of the recent Scottish Government guidelines, we have had to take the decision to postpone the opening of our booking diary for the Genealogy Centre at this time. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and will provide an update after the festive holiday period.
Thank you for your continued patience and support as we continue to face the challenges of the ongoing pandemic and the impact on our resources and services.
If preparing to visit any of the other currently open ScotlandsPeople access points (Kilmarnock, Hawick, Edinburgh), you may wish to keep an eye on their respective sites for potential updates.
