Residents in the Dallas area were affected by the city's first mandatory furlough day. The day resulted in the closure of public libraries, which was a disappointment to those who had planned to visit.

The closure was part of a citywide furlough, with two more days scheduled. Details about the furlough and its impact on city services are available from news outlets.
