What’s the Reason For These Changes?

These new expanded hours are in response to a recent patron survey and an analysis of the peak hours of operation at each branch. Patrons also told us that they were looking for more consistency between the hours of operation between these three branches. We hope these changes will also provide greater access to our library’s resources, services, and programs!
