MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

QUESTION NO.2

QUESTION: Councillor M. Duff

Would the Chief Executive indicate if there is an intention in the near future to extend the opening hours of all Libraries in the County Area and if so, will he detail the individual Libraries by name and area. 

REPLY:

'There are no plans at present to increase the opening hours of branch libraries, which are currently 54.5 hours per week in our fulltime branch libraries, which includes four late night openings and Saturday opening. The matter could be considered as part of the new Library Development Plan Strategy 2018-2022, which we are currently out on public consultation on. Also the matter will be considered as part of the opening of the two new library projects for North Clondalkin and Castletymon.'
