A Note from the Director:

Announcing a change in open hours at all Libraries
Announcement

With the passage of the Fiscal Year 2008-09 budget, the Alameda Free Library will put into effect an 8 per cent funding reduction. The Library will decrease spending on supplies, collections, and staffing. As a result of this decrease the Library announces a reduction in its open hours at all three locations, effective July 1, 2008.

Library Staff worked hard to determine the most customer friendly selection of open hours to best serve our community. Both the West End Library and the Bay Farm Island Library will continue to serve those neighborhoods 5 days a week. The Main Library will be open 7 days a week, and as always, the Library’s Virtual Branch found at www.alamedafree.org will be available 24 hours a day.

The revised open hours will be as follows:

Main Library—1550 Oak Street, 510.747.7777
Monday—Noon – 8:00 p.m.
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday—10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m.
