      <title>Future of the Central Library consultation</title>
      <link>https://www.letstalk.wellington.govt.nz/central-library</link>
      <description>The Central Library has been our city’s living room and a vital part of our vibrant inner city for decades. The building itself isn’t safe to use. There are several ways to make it safe for people to be in, which also brings new possibilities in using the space. This is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to set up the central library to continue to support Wellington's diverse communities for at least the next 50 years.  Before decisions can be made on the future Central Library in October 2020 - we need to know what you think!</description>
