Think of the children, their future and the opportunities we had that they won't. It's unforgivable.

As a social care worker I see the need for libraries to support vulnerable & elderly people. Don't take away a social link they need.

The closure of any library is a cause for concern. To close a whole group of them in one area is to deny the people of that area with something vital in our civilisation - free access to knowledge and with it, self-improvement.

This is an appalling act which will be seriously detrimental to the lives of Walsall citizens. Libraries are an essential part society, allowing access to information, and free resources for self education. In an era when adult education is increasingly commoditized it is vital that full access to libraries is maintained. This is not just a threat to leisure and education, but a threat to democracy itself.

The government are quick to highlight what our youngsters are not achieving in the basics including reading.Without libraries to support our youngsters from day one the local councils/government aren't helping children to achieve childrens potential in reading & socialising.Disadvantaged families with no access to internet will be further disadvantaged.Libraries support all age groups in the community a lifeline for those who live alone.

My grandchildren go to this library to learn them the importance of reading. They also attend the playgroup.
