The gift of reading is a tremendous gift. Every town should have a library and an easily accessible one - a quiet refuge for those who wish to read, study or just be quiet. Don't throw this away.

Who is it who comes up with these crazy policies. Surely, at the end of the day, there must be other areas where cuts can be made, which would not have such a devastating effect on the local community.

Libraries play a vital role in local communities, particularly in a rural region like Dumfries and Galoway.

A library is a vital service for all the community which gives all the population a chance to either read books which they may not be able to afford to buy and an important place for information. As Wigtown is Scotlands National book town it would be a disgrace to cut the hours of opening.

The proposed cuts are disgraceful, especially in Wigtown which is a centre of excellence in literature.

Come on council-this is Scotland's National Book Town- people come from all over the world to visit. Cutting the opening tomes so drastically, is just plain crazy !!!!
