For the first time in 23 years, the city library will be opening its doors on Sundays.
Beginning Sunday, the main library will be open from 1 to 5 p.m.
“Our library is busy all the time,” said Ron Hayden, library services director. “In an era where cities are cutting back on their services, this is a testament to the needs of residents.”
Hayden said the library had been looking for ways to open on Sundays for some time. The City Council voted to include about $100,000 in this year’s budget to fund the Sunday hours.
