MOTION NO. 20

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

This committee asks that the Chief Executive supports the residents in Adamstown area with outdoor events in particular weekly Story Telling in Our Parks (Tandy's Lane). To ask that pop up library events be included in the parks. Such events will be run by local volunteers including TY students and any support from libraries re materials and experience story tellers would be welcomed.

REPORT:

This is a lovely community idea and the library service would be interested in supporting it where it can. We already have operational commitments for the running of 7 libraries, mobile library services and the management of events etc. We would be happy to bring the pop up library when staffing allows and weather permitting.  We can also advise on storytellers and provide books for TY students who are taking part.
