Thanks to The Society of Authors for supporting and publicising the My Library By Right campaign: http://www.societyofauthors.org/soa-news/fight-your-right-back-libraries-campaign Nicola Solomon, Chief Executive of The Society of Authors, said: "Library closures have a devastating, long-lasting and irreparable effect on local communities as well as on the wider community and the nation. "The Government is failing in its statutory obligations to prevent these widespread closures and must act now to avoid irreversible damage."
