The library has always been a source of comfort and inspiration. I loved going to spend time at the library when I was a kid and can remember being dropped off there for hours just enjoying the space that the books provided. There were no computers and I spent most of my time in or around the card catalog.
Los Angeles has a population of 10,000,000.
For those 10,000,000 people, the library is now closed 28% of the time!
Hours at the city's 64 branch libraries also have been reduced because of employee furloughs, or unpaid days off. Starting July 1, library employees were no longer required to take part in that budget-cutting initiative.
If you live in Los Angeles, don't bother going on Sunday, or on Monday either.
