Move to Alert Level 2 - affect on Libraries
At 12 noon today, the Waikato Region moves to Alert Level 2. Our libraries will be open but with restrictions in place.
This will affect our opening hours and our programmes will also be affected. There will be no Toddler Time (Thursday) and no Makerspace in Te Awamutu Library (Thursday).
No events will take place until further notice. Tonight's event in Cambridge (Disaster on Four Small Paws) has been cancelled. There will be no Film Club on Friday night.
Please stay safe, and remember to stay home if you are feeling unwell.
Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?
Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.
At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.
Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
