Pleasanton Library Opens Monday With Reduced Hours

PLEASANTON, CA — The Pleasanton Library opens Monday under a new schedule. Thanks to wide-ranging budget cuts, the library is now open 48 hours a week, down from 62.

The library is now open Monday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday and Wednesday from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and closed Sunday.

"While the change may affect some individuals and families, the updated schedule was developed through a thoughtful review of library usage trends, with the goal of minimizing disruption and continuing to provide essential library services to the community," the city said.

Still, the library's digital resources, including eBooks, audiobooks, newspapers, learning tools, and more, are available 24/7.

Library programs like story time, Paws to Read, Booklegger, after school programs, and adult literacy services will continue. New program times will be announced later this month.
