Alongside many individuals who use the West Kilbride Library, it is an important part of my daily and weekly activities. Any reduction in opening hours would seem a dismal method to save a few pounds from the Council budget. Surely there are more creative ways to reduce costs that shave a few pennies from a stretched Library service and miniscule budget. A reduction in Council Senior Management costs would seem a good starting point for cost savings!
I hope as an individual member of the Library that my personal satisfaction with the Library is noted as excellent. The proposed reduction in opening hours and service will have a negative effect on my mental health and well being, as I enjoy the interaction with fellow library users and members of staff.
I am responding as an individual but I am also a trustee of the local museum and wish that there were some way that the library service could engage with us to see if there is some possibility of joint working? Nobody has ever approached us before and we were never made aware of any problems.

Over the years West Kilbride Library in particular has faced closure. Now reduced hours. So disappointed, a real treasure for our community.

On behalf of myself and my wife who is also a library member.
Writing as an individual who has benefitted greatly over the years from the local library service.

Love my local library. It is a safe friendly place where I can borrow or use a range of resources and find social events
My use of library facilities often relates to volunteering with community organisations
