I am surprised that contributors to this board have not commented our town’s mention in Private Eye (No. 1490) under the headline “library News”. The chief executive of WCBC announced a review of library services and “the eye” pointed out that the last such review resulted in the prediction that rather than saving, it would cost an additional £200,000 to transfer libraries to schools or volunteer groups.
I’m surprised the former report never saw the light of day!
