Need to print a paper at 8 p.m., pick up a hold before work, or browse the shelves on Sunday?
Hybrid-access Libraries are opening their doors a little wider for people who need access at different times of the day.
Palmer Lake, Ute Pass, and Calhan libraries will offer hours from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week, excluding holidays and emergency closures.
The libraries will have staffed and unstaffed hours to provide additional time for students to work on papers or on computers; business leaders to drop in to make copies; families to arrive in pajamas for bedtime stories.
Patrons must take the necessary training for each location to use the libraries outside of staffed hours. They must be at least 18 years old, have held a 400-series library card for at least 90 days, and be in good standing with PPLD.
In total, each Library will be available for 112 hours a week.
Timeframe for hybrid access to start:
- Palmer Lake Library - Aug. 31
- Calhan Library - September
- Ute Pass Library - December
Go to ppld.org/hybrid-access for more information and to take the training, apply for a badge, and start using the Library!
