Alloa based ScotlandsPeople access update

I've just noticed this on the Clackmannanshire Council genealogy page at https://www.clacks.gov.uk/culture/genealogy/:

ScotlandsPeople search facilities and the Family History Centre will be closed until at least 1st April 2022.  Further discussion about the re-opening will take place with Health and Safety before this date.  Thank you for your continued patience as we continue to face the challenges of our services with our limited resources.  

Clackmannanshire is the only council to have completely closed down its genealogy service, based at the Speirs Centre in Alloa, over the last two years. It would be useful to see it opening up again.
