In December 2015 the Mayor ignored the results of the council's own consultation and made the decision to press ahead with library cuts that will close 4 more council run libraries and replace them with volunteer staffed “community libraries.”  Now is the time to build a bigger campaign and plan actions to beat these cuts. 

Open to all library campaigners including library workers.

Further evidence emerges of the danger posed to Libraries once they are outside of council control

It's recently come to light that one of the community groups tasked with running our libraries since 2011 secured funding by putting the library up as collateral. 

Thankfully on this occasion, there has been no reason to call in the assets, but this shows just how at risk our libraries will be.

Public Meeting Tonight

Unison have booked a room at the St Laurence Church tonight from 7pm.
We'll be discussing strategies to resist and protest the proposed cuts.
All supporters of the libraries are welcome
