Changes to Library Hours and Days
Dear LAMP Volunteers, Instructors and Tutors,
Today is a day of bad news for our library community. It saddens me to inform you that due to budget cuts our library will be closed on Fridays and Saturdays effective March 1, 2010. Our library will also suffer layoffs as well and those remaining will make every effort to maintain the highest quality of organizational efficiency possible in delivery of service to our patrons.
My first goal is to inform my volunteer staff of the changes that must be made to continue providing literacy services to our adult learners. Saturday class schedules will be moved to Mondays and Wednesdays where there is space available or other days if you have another preference. If you tutor on Fridays and Saturdays, please make arrangements with your tutees to come in on the remaining days we are open. Volunteer instructors are being asked to work with me in moving their class time and students to Mondays through Thursdays. We have one month to make this transition possible and successful. All of us have invested many hours and tremendous dedicated efforts to make the successful program it is today and I am hopeful that we can adjust to these hard economic times and continue to provide this community with the biggest gift of all – literacy!
I welcome your comments and thoughts.
