Please sign this petition to fight to safeguard the future of Birkdale Library for our local community and our future generations. Birkdale library is the most user friendly library in the Southport area because it provides off road parking facilities. This is particulary relevant for the elderly, disabled and for families. The library is not just for books but provides important services that involve and include every sector of our community. The availability of computers is essential in todays society as not everyone has this facility at home.

Updates

October 29, 2012

I am currently organizing the data from our petition to present to the local council office. We are drafting a formal letter that highlights the specific necessity of the library's parking facilities for our elderly and disabled residents.

The administration has acknowledged the surge in public interest and confirmed a meeting to discuss the site's future. I am currently drafting a formal response that focuses on the necessity of the parking facilities and computer access for our community members. Expect further updates once the meeting concludes.

My kids use the computers here every week for school work. We really need this place to stay open for the neighborhood.

Ridiculous idea to close it. The parking is the only reason I can actually take my mum there. Leave it alone.

So many elderly people rely on this branch. Where are they supposed to go now? Fix the budget somewhere else.
