COLORADO SPRINGS — The future of some libraries in Colorado Springs is a topic of discussion set for the Board of Trustees on Wednesday.

In a meeting earlier in October the board met to begin to decide on the future of the Rockrimmon and Ruth Holley branches.

The board is considering the following this evening:

  • Closing the Rockrimmon and Ruth Holley Library Branches
  • Asking voters to increase funding to keep both but move the Ruth Holley Branch closer to Powers Boulevard
  • Ask voters to increase funding to keep both open and add a new location on Powers Boulevard
  • News5's Peter Choi will be at tonight's meeting at Library 21c at 5 p.m. and will bring you the latest on the boards decision as well as community reaction on News5 at 6 p.m.

    Can't make it in person? You can join the virtual meeting here .

    We are curious and want to know if you still use libraries. Let us know by filling out the survey below.
