Whanganui's mobile library will be providing reduced services during the next few weeks.
The normal timetable has been cut back because some of the mobile library staff are unavailable, Whanganui District Library frontline services manager Nicholas Keene said.
"We regret the inconvenience and will be back to normal as soon as possible," Mr Keene said.
"We've tried to contact our regulars to let them know but there will be people we haven't been able to get a message to."
The suburban stops that have been temporarily cut are:
Springvale: September 19 and October 3.
Ladysmith Flats and Aramoho Shopping Centre: September 20 and October 4.
Caversham Park and Mowhanau Beach: September 21 and October 5.
Whanganui East shops and Kitchener St: September 22 and October 6.
