All rights reserved. - Family History Library Reduces Hours The Family History Library in Salt Lake City has announced new library hours beginning 1 July 2003. The library will be open Mondays from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., and Tuesdays through Saturdays from 8:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M.. Frequent library users will note that this reflects opening one-half hour later, and closing one hour earlier from Tuesday through Saturday. Glade I. Nelson, Director of the Family History Library, pointed out that the library will still be open 74 hours per week, considerably more than any other major genealogical facility in the U.S. He also hopes that patrons will be able to adjust their schedules to fit all their research needs within the new open hours. The reductions were necessary because of a decrease in staff and volunteers.
