LIBRARY AND INFORMATION SERVICES

Woodville Independents recognise that the right to free and equitable access to basic information is a cornerstone of our democratic society. Public libraries are centres for free and equitable access to learning, literature, heritage, knowledge and cultural activity.

On behalf of my Party, I support the principle, that they should be places that are safe, convenient and accessible community spaces that encourage interaction and information seeking.

Library services should also provide access for those unable to visit and thus mobile services should be provided.

    It's great to see this sort of support for public libraries. Good on you!
