The Baltimore County Public library recently updated its hours and services, extending time for in-person public browsing.
The changes took effect Tuesday, according to Baltimore County Public Library Director Sonia Alcántara-Antoine.
“We are excited to be able to expand our public service hours, bringing back nighttime availability for those who cannot access the library during the day or on weekends,” Alcántara-Antoine said.
New public browsing hours are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
The library will continue to offer services such as computer appointments, grab-and-go meals, hot spots, digital downloads, streaming services and virtual programs and services — in addition to the extended hours.
Also, the library’s popular curbside service will remain in place indefinitely for those who prefer to offer library services remotely, according to the library’s website.
“Customers’ needs and equal access are core values for Baltimore County Public Library, and we know this change will have a positive effect on the community,” Alcántara-Antoine said.
