Forwarded FYI. -----Original Message----- From: W. David Samuelsen [mailto:dsam@sampubco.com] Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 8:55 PM To: ARCHIVES-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [ARCHIVES] SLC's Family History Library Hours Changed Official as of today.... The hours for Family History Library in Salt Lake City had been changed effective JULY FIRST. Monday: 8 am to 5 pm Tuesday-Saturday: 8 am to 9 pm Personally I knew about the change over a week ago but I was asked not to announce until the Library has the chance to post the announcement themselves. Notice is posted on entrance doors to Library as well as by the elevators. The reason given: Low patron use 7:30 am to 8 am and after 9 pm as well as energy costs, particularly electricity usage in proporation to low patron usage during those times. Lately, from my personal observations, there appears to be less use of the Library in last 3 months. The last time the Library was crowded was way back in February. Very unusual NOT to have crowds about every 2 weeks after several years of crowds. Permission is granted to forward to many appropriate lists including but not limited to: county lists, society lists and surname lists. Not restricted to Rootsweb lists. W. David Samuelsen, long-time patron of Family History Library
