Virtual book club… but don’t mention the closures
I read thoroughly The Brent Magazine (issue 111, February 2011) I received this morning. I was looking for further borough-wide communications on the library services ‘transformation’ consultation.
Alas, there was nothing to be found.
Brent Library Service have, however, announced a virtual book club.
Virtual indeed; the closure of half the libraries in Brent will not make it easy for the ‘book lovers’ of Brent to meet.
As only 9% of the library service budget is spent on books, and with no increase on the horizon, perhaps virtual also applies to the books.
