UPPER HUTT CITY LIBRARY
I note that the Library will reopen soon in its own purpose built building, owned by us. Books are a costly asset that require specific climate controlled conditions to stop books rotting and being eaten by a variety of insects etc. So any talk of rehousing them anywhere but a purpose built environment is just a nonsense.
Our Current Mayor and Council have proven to me that they are less than honest, twist and withhold information to the point of my legally compelling them to give it to me and also tried to redefine the meaning of research.
I have little to no confidence that they might put the Library back to straight forward shelving and genre separation or abandon the so called "philosophical trend" so favoured by M. Read.
