Tauranga Library Proposed book Charges Withdrawn

In case you missed it, Tauranga City Council rejected the proposed Library charges. This is great news, although the proposed staff savings are a worry. Just how are they going to achieve those? I suspect we all now how
Now we wait to see what happens on South Taranaki. News on their changes should come out next week.
Tauranga City Council today rejected the proposal to charge for all library books for adults as a way to reduce the rates income required to run the service. They instead voted unanimously to stick with the status quo and continue to only charge for the usual ‘Top Title’ books they currently charge for.
