The proposed changes would have a slight positive impact for me in that a slight increase to opening time on saturday and Wednesdays (half days) would be useful to me and the earlier closure on Tuedays would have no negative impact. However that would be more to do with convenience than being vital to my access/use of the library. Having previously lived in West Kilbride and used that library and still sometimes doing so the proposed timetable of two full days open at the beginning of the week, two full days closed at the end of the working week and Wednesday and Saturdays as half days on alternative weeks seems a complicated proposal not offering consistency of service over the week, within decreased hours. The decrease in opening days and hours for Fairlie Library will I believe be a negitive move for that community too. The libraries are integral parts of these communities offering both services and community resources and opportunities for local community contact.
The impact on your proposed changes would have no impact on me. However, the library in Largs is never empty, and caters for people out at work and popping in after office hours. The computer room is a great asset. New bank hub super idea. Food hub helps people in and out of work. The staff are first class always polite, helpful and as a senior resident of Largs I never fell rushed,.
No impact
The loss of the later opening on a Tuesday
I am very aware of fewer staff leading to loss of services they provide. I would be very upset if staff members were cut
I do not think hubs within districts will fulfil anything like the same function as I question how much people from other towns will use them.

No
Wouldn't.
I am retired so can fit in with opening times, however for workers it is a different matter.
None. Library is a great resource!
