![Page 12: A Look at the Numbers](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815915550346895dc64171/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: A Look at the Numbers](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815915550346895dc64171/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Plan A: Extended Hours Because . . .
• Supported by quantifiable data
• 6:30am opening aligns with UH commuter population patterns
• Can be accomplished with 1 half-time Civil Service position
![Page 14: A Look at the Numbers](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815915550346895dc64171/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Plan B: 24/5 Because . . .
• Affective data very positive
• Quantifiable data indicates growing use
• Remaining open is more cost-effective than closing/opening
• Takes Library Hours issue off the table

Other Factors:
• 4000 users per day vs. 4000 in 9 weeks
• Campus Security sees no problem with expansion that can’t be handled
• Custodial costs pending; no major problems during 24/3
• No security incidents reported during 24/3
