Water Problems at Willesden Green Library

The water supply problems at Willesden Library continue.  From conversation, I understand that the ground area flooded taking out the electrics on the bottom floor as well as crucially a pump to supply the building with water.  It is still not entirely clear what the source of the flooding is.

It must be very frustrating for both the tenants and the staff, who are having to cancel some events.

There is some hope of opening next week although this is still unclear.  Presumably once the building is operating again there will be various efforts to claim compensation.

Unfortunately, this is likely to lead to Brent being unable to replicate its rise in loans and visit usage for next year as Willesden is the busiest in terms of loans and the second busiest in terms of visits.  

UPDATE 31.07.18

The Library service have managed to open Willesden Library as of today (31.07.18)
