We the undersigned ask you to rethink your plans to slash the budget for libraries and consider the alternatives put forward by our Green councillors.

The Issue

Like other libraries in Liverpool, Sefton Park Library is an important part of our community. Do not close it.

The Greens are proposing taking £1.634m from two separate funds which are used for optional discretionary projects and using it to prevent any library closures in Liverpool. We recognise that many of these projects do good things, but on balance we think protecting the library service should be a priority. We proposed this as an amendment to the most recent council budget, but the proposal was rejected.
