Windsor Public Library begins winter hours on Sunday

School is back in session, and the Windsor Public Library will switch its hours across the system this week.

The library will begin the transition to what it terms "winter hours" on Sunday, with the rest of the branches making the change on Monday.

The Central Branch on Ouellette Avenue, the Budimir Branch on Grand Marais Road West, and the Riverside Branch on Wyandotte Street East, will be open Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

All other branches are closed on Sunday.

The winter hours at the Central, Riverside, and Budimir Branches are as follows.

  • Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Central Branch only.

  • Monday through Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., at Budimir and Riverside.

  • Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at all three branches.

  • Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at all three branches.

The winter hours at the Bridgeview, Chisholm, Fontainebleau, Forest Glade, Muir, and Seminole Branches are as follows.

  • Monday and Wednesday from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.

  • Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

  • Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

  • Closed on Sunday.

The library's Local History Branch, located at 3312 Sandwich Street, follows the six-day-per-week schedule but closes for an hour each day for lunch.

Winter hours are in effect until December 22. The system will close for a two-week holiday break before beginning a new schedule in January 2025.

The library's official website is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
