Library users across Shropshire are invited to have their say on proposals to changes to library opening hours. |
The consultation is in
response to the further £585,000 savings that Library Services is required to
make as part of Shropshire Council’s £23m savings plan identified for 2016/17
in its Financial Strategy 2016/17 – 2018/19.
The new times suggested in the proposals have been based on an analysis of visitor numbers to each of the libraries which was undertaken to identify the quietest periods which, according to the research, have been identified as evenings and Saturday afternoons.
The proposed changes to library opening hours are forecast to generate savings of approximately £55,000 per annum.
