A POOLE library will close tomorrow as essential maintenance work is carried out.
Canford Cliffs Library, on Western Road, is due to shut temporarily.
A spokesperson for BCP Council said: “Due to essential maintenance Canford Cliffs will be closed on Friday 5 January.
“The nearest other libraries are Branksome Library and Westbourne Library. We apologise for any inconvenience.”
It is expected to reopen the next day on Saturday, January 6 at 9.30am.
However, future opening times for libraries across the district remain unclear following a public consultation.
Hours are set to be slashed by an average of 10 hours a week, at each library, from April, as part of cost-cutting plans
Expected to save £440,200, the council is expected to announce further budget cuts to save £12.6 million.
Grass cutting, CCTV cameras, paddling pools and tip opening hours are all set to be impacted later this year, subject to the consultation's findings.
