A member of the public said “people feel betrayed” as Wirral Council moves forward with plans to close nine libraries.
Wirral Council has confirmed the nine libraries will close by the end of the month due to cuts it made earlier this year. The libraries are expected to close on October 30 but there are hopes communities can take over some of the sites.
Seven of them could be saved through bids that have been submitted. The libraries are in Hoylake, Irby, Pensby, Prenton, Wallasey Village, Woodchurch, Higher Bebington, Bromborough and New Ferry.
