Library officials say they don't have the budget to expand hours "significantly," so they're shifting hours at three branches to try to meet the needs of residents who say they want more access.
The Long Beach Public Library will now be accepting any U.S. state driver’s license or ID card, U.S. passport, military identification, U.S. permanent resident card, work or student visa, foreign consulate ID card, or foreign passport to obtain a full-access library card.
