Old Windsor Library Closure

RBWM Council is proposing to transform its library service, whilst ensuring our communities remain resilient and citizens independent, information provided is trusted, resources are well managed and offer value for money. However, RBWM must make savings of £8 million and it is proposed that Libraries contribute £292k towards this target. A consultation has been launched to gather feedback. Old Windsor Library is down to be closed. Read the additional documents for more information.
