In an effort to serve the public more effectively,
Rolling Hills Library is changing the hours its Belt Branch and Savannah Branch
will be open, beginning Thursday, Jan. 2. With the change, the branches will be
open two hours longer each week and will be open on some federal holidays.
The Belt Branch is currently open 1-5 p.m.
Sunday, 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The
new hours will be noon-6 p.m. Sunday and 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday-Saturday.
The Savannah Branch is now open 1-5 p.m.
Sunday, 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Tuesday and
Thursday and 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday. The new hours will be noon-5 p.m.
Sunday, 9 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday.
Both branches also will be open on Columbus Day, Martin
Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day and Veterans Day.
“We are aligning our hours closer to the demand we see
from users, based on foot traffic statistics and requests from users,” Library
Director Michelle Mears said. “These changes add 292 hours to library
availability per year.”
The library will continue to honor the origins and
reasons for the four holidays by serving the public on those days and having
programs related to the holidays, Mears said.
