Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) announced the reinstatem­ent of its official working hours across all Dubai Public Library branches: From 8am to 8pm, Saturdays to Thursdays, starting from yesterday (September 18).

This decision comes in line with the UAE’s directives to return to normal life, taking into account the continued applicatio­n of all precaution­ary and preventive measures to ensure a safe experience for library members.

This step also comes as part of the preparatio­ns to welcome visitors to Expo 2020 Dubai, the largest internatio­nal exhibition that opens on October 1.

Dubai Culture manages the Dubai Public Library’s network of branches, which includes Al Mankhool, Al Safa Art and Design, Al Rashidiya, Umm Suqeim, Hatta, Hor Al Anz and Al Twar, allowing community members to easily access a wide range of books covering a wide range of topics, in both Arabic and English, by providing highly efficient services backed up by the latest technologi­es used in this field.
