Doe the new hours of the libraries in the Mpls Public Library seem fair for all??
MINNEAPOLIS: City's library system forced to shorten hours BY DAVID HAWLEY Pioneer Press Those who need to use the downtown library in Minneapolis next year will find it open every day except Sunday, but morning hours will be rare and the library will have evening hours until 7 p.m. only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The shortened hours are part of a new schedule announced Tuesday that reduces hours by 30 percent in all of the city's 14 operating libraries. It reflects the significant decrease in state funding for Minneapolis that last week prompted the library's board to authorize a 25 percent reduction in staff and shorter hours. http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/news/local/7350829.htm Minneapolis Public Library 2004 Public Service Hours http://www.mplib.org/budget_hours04.asp Shawn Lewis, Field Neighborhood -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm REMINDERS: 1.
