Help Shape The Future Of Cambridgeshire Libraries

Since 2012, Cambridgeshire County Council Library Service has saved £2.5m but now needs to save a further £0.5m. Previously, savings have been made from back office support, management costs, a more self-service approach, some service reductions and other efficiencies across the service.

Now, they have to make some tough decisions and they are asking people for their opinions about the options facing them.

Proposals include a combination of reducing opening hours at larger libraries, reducing management and professional staff and spending less on new library stock.

Other options are still being discussed by the Council (in particular, budget proposals for completely cutting the Mobile Library Service).

If you want some input in the process then please take some time to complete this survey by Monday, 15th February.
