Reminder: Tell us your thoughts on branch hours!

If you have not filled out our community survey on branch hours, there is still time! The survey closes October 31. Your feedback will be used to help determine how we can best use the hours we have available to provide the greatest access to library service. It should only take about 10 minutes to complete, and will help shape our next steps.
