CUTBACKS have affected numerous libraries. Some have shut, some have lost services, while communities are running others once under the auspices of the local authority.
So it’s welcome news that Dorset County Council has invested £2m on improving Christchurch Library.
The library now has 60 per cent more space.
It now offers more books with better choice and better facilities for youngsters and families. Libraries are a vital resource for learning. Anything which encourages more people through their doors definitely gets an A+.
