Save our Saturdays!
Saturday is a busy day for public libraries across the city. Now those Saturday library days are under threat. BCC has proposed a 50% cut to Saturday openings across the city. Libraries are not luxuries. They are learning centres, safe spaces, warm hubs, and community lifelines. Birmingham needs more access, not less.

Open letter to Cllr Suleman, Cabinet Member for Libraries
We are writing to express our collective concern, as representatives of Friends of Library groups and library campaigns across the city, about the ongoing closure of libraries and slashing of opening hours, especially Saturday opening hours.
