The library will be open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.
These changes were approved by the Evanston Public Library Board of Trustees on Aug. 18.
Evanston Public Library also plans to launch “open+” hours, or additional self-service hours at the Robert Crown Library, later in the fall. These hours will run Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and Friday to Sunday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Additionally, use of meeting rooms will resume at both locations on this date. Patrons must reserve the space and maintain social distancing. Each meeting room has a maximum number of patrons based on the six feet of distance suggested by the health department.
Additional information from the library will be announced in the coming days.
