Help us embrace the future!

To help align our hours with the needs of the community, we want to hear thoughts! Please share your feedback on library hours by completing the survey below, sharing your preferred hours, or attending a focus group.

An open-hours assessment helps develop a plan to establish the best possible public operating hours for each of the Sacramento Public Library's 28 branches.

Our goals are to align hours with community needs and identify service gaps. This will help support our libraries in better serving our community.

Your feedback will be used to create goals and priorities for optimal operating hours. This information is crucial for identifying how capital and operating investments will be used in the future.

Most importantly, it helps us ensure our libraries are a place for everyone. Your opinion and ideas help guide library hour recommendations.

The Sacramento Public Library wants to ensure that the hours of operation at all branches meet the needs of each individual community.

To do that, your library sought insight and expertise from a qualified and experienced company, LibraryIQ, to conduct a thorough assessment aimed at establishing the most effective public operating hours for each of the 28 branches.

The result of this project will be a comprehensive report recommending optimal hours of operation based on the input of the community.
