SAVE ALYTH LIBRARY!

SAVE ALYTH LIBRARY!

The Issue

Alyth Library is under threat.

Rural libraries across Perthshire are under threat of closure, to be replaced by either inadequate mobile libraries, or nothing at all.

But a library has a significance beyond book lending; it is an irreplaceable community hub. 

Library services positively impact people across different age groups and backgrounds - from young learners nurturing their reading skills, to older generations who find company and shared interests in its comfortable surroundings.

Scottish libraries not only serve as an essential provider of free reading materials, but also play a crucial role in fostering community engagement and improved wellbeing. 

Closing Alyth Library would deny our community access to these valuable resources and harm our town. 

It is our responsibility to save it as a place of learning, exploration, and community connection. 

Please join us in urging Perth and Kinross Council to reconsider the proposed closures and secure the future of Alyth Library – sign our petition today.
