Eugene, OR – According to the officials, the updated schedule is as follows:

Downtown Library

  • Monday, Friday, Saturday: 9:30 a.m. – 6 p.m.
  • Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: 9:30 a.m. – 8 p.m.
  • Sunday: 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.

Bethel and Sheldon Branches

  • Monday, Wednesday, Thursday: 9:30 a.m. – 6 p.m.
  • Tuesday: Noon – 8 p.m.
  • Friday, Saturday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
  • Sunday: Closed

This adjustment aims to optimize staff coverage and provide direct public service during the busiest hours.

The change comes as a result of staff size reductions in the City of Eugene’s budget process.

The library’s staffing was reduced by 12 part-time positions in FY24 and an additional two part-time positions in FY25.
