Summary

The library announced public service from June 2 through August 31, 1980, with hours on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. The notice attributed the summer arrangement to CETA funding and said service would end after August 31.

Evidence and limits

This is a public notice, not a library administrative ledger.
