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


Library Services

I have heard a great deal of talk in this debate about the use of volunteers. I am interested to know whether other hon. Members share my sentiment about the use of volunteers. I presume that the Minister is dissociating himself from the view, and I am grateful to him for that, because it is insulting to skilled librarians to suggest that they can be replaced simply by volunteers.
