Library hours to change in Markle

The Markle Public Library will operate under new hours beginning Sept. 1.

In an effort to meet patrons’ needs with more varied and flexible operating hours, the library will be open Monday and Friday from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m.; Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and closed Wednesday and Sunday.

During the community planning meetings the Huntington and Markle libraries held in January, Markle patrons expressed their wish for morning hours, as well as more hours on the weekends.

The Markle Library is responding to that feedback by shifting the hours to a schedule patrons have requested and will better fit a variety of schedules.

While this means the Markle Library will still be open 33 hours per week —the same number of hours it’s currently open — the times now range across mornings, afternoons and evenings to accommodate the variety of times patrons wish to visit the library.

The Markle Public Library is currently open Monday through Friday from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon, and will continue to be open during those hours through August.
