Supported by: Tavish Scott* Members' Business motions that have not achieved cross party support *S5M-02708 Richard Lyle: Save Newarthill Library That the Parliament understands that — Newarthill Library in North Lanarkshire reportedly faces closure as part of proposals by CultureNL, which is an arm's-length external organisation of North Lanarkshire Council; notes that 2,666 people have signed a petition against the closure of this facility; understands that the library is one of a host of community facilities and much-needed library facilities that are closing in the hearts of villages across North Lanarkshire; notes the text of the petition, which highlights that closing libraries can seem like closing the future to many in communities who wish to use the facility to write their own story; further notes the calls on CultureNL and North Lanarkshire Council to review the approach that they have adopted to the closure of community centres and libraries that so enrich communities and act as hubs of engagement, activity and learning for people of all ages; considers that the loss of libraries and community facilities has a significant impact on local people accessing important services and information, and wishes the Save Newarthill Library campaign the very best of success as it continues to work against the closure of the community library.
