All city libraries closing next week

August 26th, 2009 · 1 Comment

You’ve only got a few more days to pick up your books, CDs, DVDs or use the computers at all city library branches before they close next week to save money. The libraries will be closed from Monday, Aug. 31 through Monday, Sept. 7 (Labor Day). They’ll reopen on Tuesday, Sep. 8.

No items will be due during that week and library fines won’t accrue. Book drops will also be closed, so hold onto your items until the library reopens. And you won’t even be able to access the library system’s website during that week. The closure will save the library system about $655,000.

Greenwood Library’s hours for the rest of the week are: Wed., 10 a.m. – 8 p.m.; Thurs., 10 a.m. – 8 p.m.; Fri., 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.; Sat., 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.; and Sun., 12-5 p.m.

    I know its just a week – and I know it is going to save quite a bit… but it still makes me a little sad – and little worried about the future.
