Sarah Teather on Libraries

Our library strategy got support from an unexpected quarter  according to this blog.  Sarah Teather, no less, regrets the budget situation that is forcing library closures, but agrees with the thrust of our fewer, better libraries strategy.  Of course, all Brent Council services would be better if the government of which she is a member had not decided to cut back public spending further and faster than anyone suggested in the General Election, but lets not be churlish.

I think if you actually listened to it properly - she actually said she wanted councils to think "out of the box" and think of innovative ways to combine services to make libraries work to increase foot fall - perhaps you should listen to her and think about what you could do to save our precious libraries rather than shutting them all to make your showcase Uber library in WEMBLEY
