@SaveNottmLib One of the managers involved in trying to shut down the Aspley library told me it was because the library was not being used. It’s on the edge of a huge “council estate”. She pushed for the new Sherwood library in preference to it. Typical #CultOfManagerialism incompetence.

@PonyPonyPony4 They're MUCH cheaper than the shared service centres to run. But they're not linked to dodgy & expensive PFI deals so that's why hours get cut to impact the footfall & then reduced footfall is used to push for closures. Nottingham Labour are awful for working class communities.

@SaveNottmLib Someone at the Lenton consultation last time worked out that these are some of the cheapest libraries to run per user.

In Nottingham when we fought 3 library closures in 2022 the equality impact assessments were damning. It was VERY obvious libraries targeted were in areas that had the most need for resources & support. The same 3 libraries & another in a similar area are under threat again.

Such an eye-opener, I don’t think library closures had been mapped against index of multiple deprivation before.Surely equality impact assessment should have picked this up. Need to fix council underfunding. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@CILIPinfo @BBCr4today @richove Paid, professional library staff are essential for an accountable and professional library system. Volunteers do great work but every library should have a paid, professional librarian present. A school would never be run by volunteers - why should libraries?

On @BBCr4today @richove calls on Govt to address 'critical' issues in #Libraries. "Responsibility is held by Govt to provide a comprehensive & efficient library service" - service needs to be more 'joined up' - an "infrastructure for democracy" From 02:23 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

The library minister also has statutory duty to 'promote the improvement of the public library service' - both duties can be interpreted with far greater ambition

@ayubkhan786 Local/national campaigners & unions have been using deprivation indices etc to argue against library cuts and closures for years, I wrote a guide to doing this for ‘Speak up for Libraries’. Most EIA’s like consultations aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.

@SaveNottmLib @BBCr4today The Labour led Nottingham City council is planning to close yet more libraries - it is clear that @UKLabour has no vision for libraries seeing them as a burden not an agent of social mobility

@mrjamesob wouldn’t it be good if we had a renewed vision for libraries in our communities ?

Very much tracks with the situation in Nottingham. Councillors pretended to be offended when we asked why cuts were being targeted in working class areas. And yet they are. Support our campaign, sign our petition here: tinyurl.com/NottmSOL

Important new analysis from @BBCNews reveals extent of library cuts since 2016. The poorest areas are around four times more likely to lose a local library than the richest. Our CEO @HunterIsobel is quoted bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

This is an enormous scandal and needs to be a priority for the new Government. Libraries are absolutely vital community assets, particularly in the most deprived past of the country. We’re proud to champion them through @WarmWelcome_UK
