Source and date notes

The Federal Reserve distinguishes Reserve Bank and Board of Governors treatment when a holiday falls on Saturday or Sunday. Saturday holidays leave Reserve Banks open on the preceding Friday while the Board is closed; Sunday holidays close all Federal Reserve offices on the following Monday. This schedule does not claim that all banks, employers, exchanges or payment systems follow it.
