Six of Aberdeen’s libraries will close this week after a last-ditch effort to save them was unsuccessful.

However, the Save Aberdeen Libraries campaign – an umbrella group bringing together campaigns to save Cornhill, Cults, Ferryhill, Kaimhill, Northfield and Woodside libraries – has said it is considering legal action against Aberdeen City Council, according to the Herald.
