Support National Wear Red Day this Friday

Houston Public Library will be participating in support of National Wear Red Day this Friday, Feb. 7, 2014, and we are urging staff to wear red that day. 

National Wear Red Day®, held the first Friday of every February, is the American Heart Association’s (AHA) special day to bring attention to heart disease. The AHA encourages everyone to wear red, raise their voices, know their cardiovascular risk and take action to live longer, healthier lives.   http://www.goredforwomen.org/wearredday

Info Required During Service Interruptions & Closures

Hello all,

We are now being asked to report more information on the service interruptions and temporary closures that happen in Neighborhood Libraries. 

The criteria for closing a branch due to no heat or A/C is if the temperature is below 60 degrees or higher than 80 degrees.  You will need to give us the temperature and the time it was taken when reporting your problem.

Also, for all interruptions/closures, we need to report the impact on customers and staff.  Impact on customers include any programs that needed to be canceled or no access to specific services like public wi-fi.  Impact on staff include deployment to other locations or working off-line.

Please be prepared to answer these questions when you call to report your problem, or when your service has been restored, and/or you are reopening.

Thank you,

G Yolanda Anguiano
