Last year Ramsey County Library began a pilot study in order to evaluate the feasibility of increasing hours on Tuesday mornings at the library in New Brighton. A positive effect was seen in both circulation and visits with the added hours. The library in New Brighton will not only maintain the Tuesday mornings, but will also add Monday hours. In late December, the County Board voted to add Monday hours from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting April 4, 2016. The New Brighton branch will then be open 45 hours a week.
