Effective Monday, July 06, the Tipp City Public Library will have reduced hours of operation.
New hours are: Mondays, 12:30 to 8:30 p.m., Tuesdays, noon to 5:30 p.m.; Wednesdays, noon to 8:30 p.m.; Thursdays, closed; Fridays, noon to 6 p.m.; and Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (opening at 9 a.m. on Saturdays during Tippecanoe Farmers’ Market).
The library’s state funding through the first half of 2009 is down by 15 percent when compared to the same period in 2008. State funding for libraries is predicted to be down 15 to 20 percent for the second half of 2009 as well. These reductions make it impossible for the library to continue to operate as it has in the past.
Currently, program plans are being adjusted to reflect the decreased hours of operations. The library staff will make that information available as soon as it is complete. If you have plans to attend a library program on or after July 06, please call 667-3826 to ensure that it is still offered.
Tipp City Public Library is located at 11 E. Main St., and the telephone number is 667-3826. Find the library online at http://www.tippcitylibrary.org.
