Rio Rancho officials announced on May 14 that the city’s public libraries—Loma Colorado, Esther Bone, and The Hub—will close at noon on Friday, May 22 to allow for staff training. Normal operating hours are set to resume on Saturday, May 23.
The early closure affects all three main library branches in Rio Rancho. City officials said the decision was made so library staff can participate in professional development activities. Such training is intended to help staff provide better service and keep up with best practices in library management.
The City of Rio Rancho provides a range of municipal services including utilities, public safety, parks, recreation programs, and library resources as part of its efforts to serve residents and promote community engagement through events and transparency initiatives like commissions and published meeting agendas and minutes, according to the official website.
