WICOMICO PUBLIC LIBRARY SUNDAY HOURS RESTORED

The Downtown Branch of Wicomico Public Library is pleased to announce that it will be open on Sunday throughout the school year. Beginning September 7th through May 17th the Library will be open from 1pm until 5pm.  

Sundays are an important family day. Wicomico Public Library is pleased to have the opportunity to better serve our community by extending the availability of its services. These new hours are in addition to the Sunday hours at the Centre Branch -11am until 6pm, year-round.

“We are thrilled to be able to open the Downtown Library on Sundays.” stated Executive Director Andrea Berstler. “This has been an ongoing request from the community since budget cuts forced the Library to reduce hours in 2009.  We appreciate the support of the County Executive, Rick Pollitt. His recommendation to the County Council that these hours needed to be restored demonstrates his understanding that the Library is a vital service in our community.  County Council’s actions in keeping this recommendation in the budget means that we can be more accessible to our community.”  

Wicomico Public Library has locations in Downtown Salisbury, the Centre at Salisbury, in Pittsville, and the Library Bookmobile. Your public library provides classes and events, resources and online services that support learning build communities and enrich lives. You Belong @ Wicomico Public Library!
