Written Question

Public Libraries

Thursday 3rd November 2016

Asked by: Mike Wood (Conservative - Kingswinford and South Staffordshire)

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to support library provision.

Answered by Rob Wilson

The Government, together with the Local Government Association, set up the Leadership for Libraries Taskforce in 2015. The Taskforce has already published Toolkits and case studies to assist local authorities. We have also been developing, with the Taskforce, a draft vision and action plan for public libraries in England and this will be published shortly.
