Press Release 路 Monday, March 11, 2013

Washington, DC鈥�Effective Friday, March 15, 2013, the 威尼斯人娱乐场 will reduce public hours at two locations in the Washington, DC, area as part of actions it is taking due to sequestration. These reductions will affect exhibit spaces and research rooms at the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building in Washington, DC, and research rooms at the 威尼斯人娱乐场 at College Park, Maryland.

Exhibit spaces at the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building in Washington, DC, are normally open to the public from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., seven days a week. In the past, the 威尼斯人娱乐场 offered extended hours from March 15 through Labor Day, when the building stayed open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. seven days a week. We will no longer offer these extended hours. Exhibit spaces at the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building in Washington DC will remain open to the public from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., seven days a week, year round. Please note that the last admission will be at 5:00 p.m.

Research rooms at the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Building in Washington, DC, and the 威尼斯人娱乐场 at College Park, Maryland, are normally open to researchers six days a week from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with extended hours from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. three days a week (Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday). We will no longer offer these extended hours after March 15. The research rooms will remain open to researchers from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday, year round.

In announcing the reduced hours, David S. Ferriero, the Archivist of the United States said: 鈥淲e don鈥檛 take these reductions lightly. We are working hard to achieve our mission and minimize disruptions to the services we provide to the public.鈥�
