MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

QUESTION NO.14

QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

To ask when a meeting will be held to discuss the Library Development Plan 2018 – 2022 and will councillors be able to make submissions/enter motions? 

REPLY:

"Councillors were invited by email on 12th October to complete an online survey on South Dublin County Council's Library Development Plan 2018-2022. Councillors were also invited to attend a public consultation in the County Library on 9th November 2017. A link to the survey and a call for submissions was posted on SDCC's submissions portal on the website and a posting on the Intranet also invited Council staff to partake in the survey. This was posted on 12th October and remained there until the 2nd November. In addition a press release to local newspapers was issued inviting participation in the survey and/or to send in submissions. Hard copies of the survey were available in all our branch libraries and the survey was also available on public PCs in our branch libraries.

Councillors can still make submissions on the Library Development Plan 2018-2022 to the County Librarian. It is hoped to collate the information and present a draft report to Arts, Culture, Gaeilge, Heritage and  Libraries SPC in early 2018."
