I think it would be a great blow to the surrounding area if this facility is closed down. This happened in my own community some years ago when the local library was closed. It's such a shame to see it happening yet again.

"Freedom, prosperity and the development of society and individuals are fundamental human values. They will only be attained through the ability of well-informed citizens to exercise their democratic rights and to play an active role in society. Constructive participation and the development of democracy depend on satisfactory education as well as on free and unlimited access to knowledge, thought, culture and information. The public library, the local gateway to knowledge, provides a basic condition for lifelong learning, independent decision-making and cultural development of the individual and social groups. This Manifesto proclaims UNESCO's belief in the public library as a living force for education, culture and information, and as an essential agent for the fostering of peace and spiritual welfare through the minds of men and women. UNESCO therefore encourages national and local governments to support and actively engage in the development of public libraries."

Please leave this valuable resource open for the local community and all future children, who like me, will have their lives considerably enhanced by it's existence.

It is well loved and used frequently for lots of reasons besides borrowing books. Local school children use it. There is an old peoples complex just across the road and the larger complex of The Shrewsbury Alms Houses on Talbot Place - all in walking distance for oap's. When Park Hill development is finished it will be needed more.

There are too many libraries across the county closing. It's not good enough
