The Forestville Branch of the Bristol Public Library will open at 8:30 AM, Monday–Saturday, instead  of 10:00 AM. The earlier open will provide more convenience to working people, parents,  and other busy members of the community. The earlier hours come at no additional cost to the community, as staff were already working in the building at 8:30 AM. All Bristol and  area residents are welcome to make use of the Manross Branch of the Bristol Public Library. Residents use their  Bristol library card at the branch. Library cards from all Connecticut public libraries may also be used.
