Absolutely ridiculous, as I used to return books on a Saturday morning (when finished it on a Thursday or Friday); now I got to wait until Tuesday or Thursday to return the book.
Community hub are cutting staff hours.
You can still return books at different libraries.
It’s like when I go busking I don’t just consider me I consider buisnesss so after 2 to 3 hours (sometime less if local guidelines are in place) I move so that im at least 100 yards out of ear shot of buisnesses snd I won’t return for another 2 hours if at all ro that spot
Sadly my local childhood library had this motto but it still went even after it was voulteer run and now it’s a housing estate which makes it all full circle ro be fair as over the road form the library when o moved in was a disused petrol station it was disused becuase they wanted it to become a housing estate
housing without services is like adhd without hyper focus i.e madness
Oh, no. What a blow. So many people need a access to a post office now that so many bank / building society physical branches have closed down in lots of towns and villages.
I wondered if your library had a friends of / users of group - you can see the type of "support your library" campaigns which such local groups organise:
In our area, we are very fortunate that the county public library service also operates a couple of apps - so you can also access: eBooks, Audio Books, online newspapers and magazines, music recordings (free, using the details from your usual library card).
Although I generally prefer to read a physical book; if I am in hibernation mode - I am glad of using those public library apps too.
