Proceeding contribution from Mel Stride (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 January 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Library Services.


Library Services

I welcome the fact that the hon. Lady has secured the debate, because like her I believe that libraries are extremely important. Does she applaud the Government, as I do, for the future libraries programme? It is considering the future of libraries, involving communities more in how they should be shaped, whether through the use of technology, as community centres or by facilitating transactions and access to local services. Does she see that as a positive thing that the Government are doing as a commitment to libraries?
