Revised Hours of Operation Effective January 2026:

As of January 2026, both NCPL Avilla and NCPL Cromwell will have new operating hours. NCPL Avilla and NCPL Cromwell will be CLOSED on Fridays, and NCPL Cromwell will now be open on Mondays. NCPL Albion's hours will remain unchanged. The hours shown above are the current hours of operation for each NCPL location.

Why this change was made:
This difficult decision has been made to preserve essential library services in the midst of current challenges such as decreasing revenues and staffing shortages. The choice of closing a weekday (Friday) was determined based on results of our community survey.
