San Diego officials unveiled plans May 6 to partially reverse a proposal to slash library hours by 23 percent but said staffing challenges will delay plans to restore Sunday hours and that most branches in the 36-library city system will stay closed through the summer.
The La Jolla/Riford Library branch at 7555 Draper Ave. is open for limited in-person services from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 to 5:30 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays.
