Sad days in Hampshire
More newspaper articles today
It never rains... and here is more bad publicity for the councillors about the library service in Hampshire.
This project, which is costing £7m, was never needed-- for £2m the council could have made satisfactory renovation to the fine existing building. However these officers were determined to build a monument to dumbed down culture and literature. In five years Hampshire County Council has spent more money on its library service than any other council in England -- and managed to make the libraries worse and less used than almost anywhere else.
