Croydon Library Consultation

Friday, 12 February, 2021
Croydon Library Consultation

Croydon Council has launched an Online Public Consultation on the future of our fantastic Libraries across the borough, the first stage will close on the 14th March 2021.

To many across the borough, Libraries are more than a place you can borrow books, it is also a vitally relied on Community Hub. The most deprived across the borough rely on this front line community asset, and it is vital that the whole community has the opportunity to have their say, and help shape and save our libraries in Croydon! 

The online consultation can be accessed via this link, please make sure you complete the consultation before the 14th March 2021!

In addition, a dedicated telephone number has been setup, for anyone who is unable or would struggle to complete the consultation online. To request the use of this service please call: 0207 884 5159. 

If you know anyone who would struggle to complete the consultation online, or is unable to access it online, please share this dedicated phone number with them. I encourage you all to please think of at least one person who would benefit from knowing this phone number, so they are able to take part and have their say. Together as a community we can ensure the fullest representation of our community is heard!

There will be several webinars taking place for residents to question the Councils proposals, and will be taking place as follows:
