Effective Sunday, July 31, the Main location of the Orange County Public Library in downtown Hillsborough will be open every Sunday, noon-6 p.m.
The Orange County Board of County Commissioners approved restoring Sunday hours when it approved the county’s budget in June.
“We are happy that the Commissioners supported the return of Sunday hours and are excited to offer access to library services seven days a week in Hillsborough,” said Erin Sapienza, library director.
“I think it’s important for the library to be open on Sunday afternoons,” said Orange County Commissioner Sally Greene, who co-sponsored the budget amendment with Chair Renee Price to restore Sunday hours. “It’s the best time for some people to go there.”
The Orange County Public Library has two locations, the Main Library at 137 W. Margaret Lane in downtown Hillsborough, and the Cybrary at 100 N. Greensboro Street in downtown Carrboro.
