Florence, AZ – The Town of Florence is excited to announce that starting Monday, April 1st, the Viney Jones Library will be launching a pilot program to expand its days and hours of operation! During this three-month trial period, the library will open on Mondays and extend its closing time until 8:00 p.m. on both Mondays and Thursdays.
The library’s schedule April 1 – June 30 is as follows:
- Monday: 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. (excluding holidays)
- Tuesday: 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
- Wednesday: 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
- Thursday: 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m.
- Friday: 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
- Saturday: 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
- Sunday: Closed
During these extended hours, community members are encouraged to explore the library’s Makerspace, where they can unleash their creativity by crafting custom buttons and jewelry. They can also reserve high-tech equipment such as the 3D Printer, Glow Forge laser printer, and Cricut cutting machine after becoming Makerspace certified with the help of our friendly library staff.
This initiative reflects the town’s commitment to evaluating new solutions to meet our community’s needs. We recognize the importance of listening to our residents, gathering community feedback, and using that information to continually improve our recreational programs and services.
In line with this commitment, during this trial period, the Town will be sharing a survey to collect our community’s thoughts on this pilot program and other enhancements being considered for the Florence Fitness Center. We encourage all residents to participate in this survey and share their input on how our library and fitness center can better meet their needs.
For questions or additional information about this program, please call (520) 868-8311. We look forward to hearing from you and hope to see you at the Viney Jones Library!
