Tempe Public Library: From 70.5 to 56 Hours Per Week

From a July 9th Arizona Republic article:
Library spokeswoman Adrian Richwine said she expects the changes to be permanent, although administrators will continue to monitor peak usage hours to see whether the schedule needs to be tweaked.

Regardless of the results of any future studies, however, residents should expect the library to be open 56 hours a week for the foreseeable future, she said.

"It would be nice to go back someday to 70.5 (weekly hours)," Richwine said. "(But) at this point in time . . . it looks like they are permanent."
