New open hours for July and August

In July and August the hours are the same on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. On Thursday we will be opening at 2p.m.
The trustees had to make the difficult decision to reduce open hours for July and August from 40 to 36 hours per week. The town is not able to fill the Reference Librarian's position for now, and since we are already short-staffed, this makes it difficult to properly staff the library during the busiest time of the year.
We hope that, with some additional summer help, this reduction in open hours will be sufficient, and we are able to provide the level of service our users expect when we are open.
