Library hours could be cut in November

The Gwinnett County Public Library could trim hours at its 15 branches in November unless it finds more money.

Board of Trustees Chairman Phillip Saxton said the board will use fund balances to maintain the branches’ seven-day, 53-hour-per-week schedule until “around November.”

“Without additional funding the public can expect that we may have to cut our hours of operation,” Saxton said at Monday’s board meeting.
