Campaigners say Nottingham City Council is being "disrespectful" after a final decision on saving three libraries was pushed back by a month. The authority first revealed at the start of the year that it was planning to close three libraries to save £233,000.
But a "restructure of frontline services" means £154,000 has already been saved to date and that shutting the three libraries would now only save £79,000. Thousands of members of the public also opposed the closure of the Basford, Aspley and Radford-Lenton libraries during a consultation.
A closed meeting in November then saw Labour councillors reportedly voting to save the three libraries. But this decision is yet to be officially confirmed by Nottingham City Council's executive board.
