Waarom mense teken

Librarys are important!

I have worked in this library as TRT and it is an amazing resource for the community. It is used both by the school and the community. How can you have a school without a library.

My 96yr old mother still lives at home in Riverton, she has limited ability to be out & about. Reading is a big joy to her.
Please save this important well used asset!

Libraries support all ages in the community, and provide a hub for people to connect, study, learn and relax. A local library is integral to its community.

I understand how important this facility is to the High School and to the district community. My three children attended school there and I worked there. I know just how much work and financial assistance from the District Council went into setting up this wonderful facility. Elderly people used it consistently not only to find appropriate books etc but for a place to chat and communicate with like minded people. Young people used it to assist their young families and accustom them to the values importance and enjoyment of ‘reading’ and attaining information .
There will always be a place in this world for Books even though you might argue that technology has taken over.
