A fresh consultation into new plans for Gloucestershire’s library service is likely to start in January 2012.
Gloucestershire County Council will be speaking to parish and town councils, community groups, library users, residents and our partners to get feedback on new draft plans.
Councillors and council officers are now concentrating on designing a new library service after the previous plans were quashed by a judge last month.
The council is looking to create a service that really works for Gloucestershire – but is also affordable and sustainable in the long run.
It has also started working with the Equality and Human Rights Commission – the UK’s independent regulator for equality.
On 20th January 2012, Cabinet will meet to confirm the details of the draft library plans and if they agree, a public consultation to gather feedback on the proposals will start soon after.
Exact dates and details will be publicised closer to the time, but the consultation is likely to take six weeks.
