The community is invited to share their feedback by taking a
brief online survey on possible changes to Arapahoe Library
District hours at four of its libraries. The survey will be
available on ALD’s homepage at www.arapahoelibraries.org
from Feb. 22 through March 1.

“For several months, the Arapahoe Library District has been
studying when patrons are most likely and least likely to visit
Castlewood, Eloise May, Koelbel and Smoky Hill libraries,” said
Director of Library Services Reed Osborne. “As a result, we are
considering changing the hours libraries are open to better
accommodate our patrons’ needs.”

While the total number of hours ALD is open will not increase,
it is possible to adjust the hours so that some libraries are open
a little longer, during the time when patrons tend to visit the
library most. For example, to be open an additional hour on one
day, affected libraries will need to close earlier or open later on
another day.

The online survey will be available for one week only, and
results will be posted when available. For more information, visit
