The Windsor Public Library is ready to expand service and take the guesswork out of operating hours in 2025.
Beginning this Sunday, January 5, 2025, nine branches will be open seven days a week, and hours of operation will be standardized across the board. Only the Local History branch will be unavailable on Sundays.
“We’re making access to the great services our library system provides a seven-day-a-week opportunity”, said Library Board Chair Mark McKenzie. “We know families need books, computers, and programming all week long, and this service expansion will provide that.”
The open hours for the nine branches are being standardized as noon to 8:00 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays and 10:00 am to 6:00 pm all other days, including Sundays. “Our board has listened to the residents who told us they were looking for more consistency and we’re excited to be moving forward with these improvements”, said McKenzie.
Open Sundays: Bridgeview, Budimir, Central, Fontainebleau, Forest Glade, John Muir, Riverside, Seminole, and W.F. Chisholm.
Central library used to be open 9-9. How is this not a cut in service?
Thank you for your question. The change in hours at Central is part of the overall change in hours across our system, aimed at allowing for expansion into Sundays across 9 branches. Given time, we’re confident the changes will be positive for the community as a whole.
