Public consultation on options for the future library provision in Upper Norwood and the surrounding areas is now being undertaken.
Responses are sought from the whole community, including library users, local community groups, representatives from neighbouring boroughs and those who might not at present use the library at all. The questions being asked are around current and future library provision, as well as the potential impact that each of four options might have on individuals and their communities.
Croydon Councils consultation document and questionnaire can now be accessed online at:
http://www.croydon.gov.uk/democracy/consultations/upper-norwood-library-provision/ and hard copies are available to fill in at the Upper Norwood Joint Library, Croydon branch libraries and from council offices.

A deadline of 29 April has been set for people to submit their views.

Please be assured that all correspondence has been noted and we are logging all feedback we are receiving from the community.

Yours sincerely,

Aileen Cahill

Head of Libraries and Culture

London Borough of Croydon

High street,  clock tower shadowed

by  a thick plane tree dripping its leaves

on tarmark & traffic. Shoppers pour out

the supermarket like hunter-gatherers

in search of meaning  (new life? new religion

to cling on before the end?)

The end is close

a poster barks on platform one.

The man with the big issue

smokes in perfect balance with his mood.

Down the leaves creek and shriek

a novel hope for his new soles.

They come and go like laborious termites.

Is he listening  to the deafening

sound of that plane ahead?
