    The library is great!
    But it would be necessary to extend the hours and open on Saturdays as it is an ideal place to focus (although sometimes you have to make a Shhhhh)
    The time now is ideal for children but is not supported for adults, high school students, college or people who come later to work and they need a wider slot and absolute silence, especially in times of examinations.
    It would be fantastic! especially the possibility of opening on Saturdays. Hire more staff to make this possible.
    Thank you.
