Adjusting library opening hours - Library Master Plan

One of the strategic lines of the 2021-2030 Library Master Plan is to facilitate access to library services. To this end, service hours have been adjusted as a measure to promote work-life balance for both users and library staff.

This measure proposes:

  • Implementing work shifts that promote greater equity among all staff.
  • Adjusting service hours to facilitate the work-life balance of employees.
  • Bringing forward the schedule of afternoon activities to encourage participation by a greater diversity of users.
  • Ensuring more inclusive and equitable access to library services.


Time impacts:

  • Improved quality leisure and equity in educational and leisure activities.
  • Promotion of social and cultural participation.
