Exciting New Library Hours Trial!
📅 New Rotating Schedule Begins Next Friday
We’re thrilled to announce a new initiative to better serve our community! Starting next Friday, we will be testing extended library hours on one day per week, alternating between Fridays and Mondays. This change aims to make our resources more accessible and convenient for everyone. Your feedback will be invaluable as we assess the success of this trial.
🔄 Rotation Schedule
Here's how our new schedule will look:
Week 1:
Friday, July 25th: 1:00 PM – 7:00 PM (Extended Hours) Farmers Market
Monday, July 28th : 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM (Normal Hours)
Week 2:
Friday: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM (Normal Hours)
Monday: 1:00 PM – 7:00 PM (Extended Hours)
This pattern will repeat every two weeks, allowing us to accommodate various schedules and see which day might best serve our community.
🗓️ Saturday Trial Hours
In addition to the new rotating schedule, we’re also adjusting our Saturday hours as part of this trial. The new Saturday hours will be from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. This is a shift from our previous hours, which were from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
We Want Your Feedback!
Your input is crucial in helping us understand how these changes impact your library experience. We encourage you to share your thoughts and suggestions with us during this trial period. Your feedback will guide us in making informed decisions about future library hours.
Thank you for being a valued member of our community, and we look forward to seeing you during our new extended hours!
