Following the recent budget announcement on Thursday evening, a proposal has been put forward to reduce the full-time branch library services from 6 to 5 days a week. This means access would be reduced from 48.5 hours to 40.5 hours per week. There are a number of libraries who will be affected by this proposal, including Rhiwbina library.
Rhiwbina Councillors have heard from many residents who are concerned about this. Therefore, a petition has been organised, which will be in local shops from Tuesday 5th February 2013.
You can find the online petition by clicking here.
Over the next two weeks, starting from yesterday the Library staff will be keeping a record of the numbers using this library. It is very important therefore that we use the library as much as possible during this time as the records will then indicate to the decision makers why this library should be kept open exactly as it is at present.USE IT OR LOSE IT!
