The Indianola Public Library expanded their open hours earlier this summer. The library is now open Monday-Thursday from 9am-8pm, Friday and Saturday from 8am to 5pm, and Sunday from 1pm to 5pm. Library Director Michele Patrick tells KNIA News the hour changes are to accommodate the increase in library visits and the growing community, which adds over 300 hours the library is open to the public each year. The new hours will also add additional Storytime events, taking place at 9:30 am and 10:30 am on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as Saturday Stories at 10:30 am.
