Fund the Libraries in Northern Ireland

Stop the real terms cut in funding of our libraries.

Why is this important?

Libraries are vital public services for our communities to come together and learn in NI. However, funding has been cut in real terms by almost £20 million pounds over the past decade. The financial situation is so dire that there is no budget to buy books and libraries have had to reduce opening hours.

It's time for the government to fund our libraries properly!
