A mandatory furlough day was enacted in Dallas, affecting various city services. As a result, public libraries in the city were closed.

This closure came as a disappointment to residents who had planned to visit the libraries during their summer hours. The furlough day was the first of three that are scheduled to take place.

Further information about the furlough days and their impact on city services can be found through FOX 4 News, which reported on the library closures in Dallas.
