Shrewsbury – The Board of Library Trustees of the Shrewsbury Public Library announced that donations from private citizens, community groups and businesses have once again assured that the library will be open on Sundays from October through May. Library Director Ellen Dolan reports that this season’s funding was completed much earlier than past years, and noted that great enthusiasm around the remodeled and expanded building may have played a part securing that funding so early in the year.
With full funding in place, the library will be open on Sunday afternoons from 1 to 5 p.m. through May 21, 2017. Sunday afternoons have become a popular day for library use, with people of all ages visiting for work, study, meeting and enjoyment.
