The threat to the Central Library
- Wellington Scoop
- For many of us, the word “library” has comfortable connotations. It suggests rows of books in which to browse, make discoveries and pass them on to friends and family. Beyond being a resource centre for culture and practical information, a typical library is also a community meeting ground and a safe drop-in space for kids after school. It is also one of the relatively few public destinations in town where people don’t have to spend money. At present, the content and function of libraries – and the funding for them – are in flux. Those on higher incomes don’t need or use libraries as much.

Libraries have more than just books!
- Hutt City Council
- Pani Christie would know. Being a Pou Tiaki (Host) at Wainuiomata would obviously sway her view. However, it’s been Pani’s experience outside of her hosting role that really solidified the extensive resource a Neighbourhood Hub or Library has to offer.
