It was announced this week that following the Government's Comprehensive Spending Review and the need to save £1.1million during the 2011/2012 period that a number of front line service were to be closed. 

This includes Tadcaster Library

This is in direct contrast to the investment that has been invested in to Pocklington library, at a cost to the local tax payer of £1.3m and the recent renovation of Harrogate library at the cost of £3.4 million!!

Local libraries are essential to our children’s education, they encourage children to read, research and discover facts about the world they live in and develop their education.

A local library is an essential part of the local community.

Help prevent this callous, unsympathetic closure of Tadcaster library by completing the support form and join the campaign to keep Tadcaster Library open.

Please sign the petition and help save Tadcaster Library from closure.

The lack of transparency regarding the rationale for closing this library remains a primary concern for our campaign organizers. We are actively drafting formal inquiries to the council to demand a review of the decision in light of the significant investments made in other facilities.

The momentum behind this campaign has grown significantly in recent days. Your collective commitment to preserving our library reflects how deeply this institution is valued by the community.

What a joke. Millions spent elsewhere but nothing for us. Disgraceful.

Libraries are for everyone not just people in the fancy cities. Leave it open.

Tadcaster needs this library. Cutting services is just the lazy way out. Keep it open!
