However, a firm decision is still to be made
Campaigners say they are "ecstatic" at the news Labour councillors pledged to keep three at-threat Nottingham libraries open. It comes after the Labour-run Nottingham City Council proposed to close Basford, Aspley and the Radford-Lenton libraries in order to cut costs.
"We have attended every single full council meeting and submitted citizen questions. We have attended all the consultation meetings, the ones on Zoom and the ones at the three libraries. We also set up a crowdfunded advert in the last couple of weeks. The 64-year-old Mr Conway from Sherwood added: "The thought that the Labour council might take those facilities away is an absolute disgrace. We have persuaded enough of them now to come on side and do the right thing, which they have done.
In recent weeks, libraries across the country have started to be used as warm rooms to help with the cost of living crisis. Campaigners from Save Nottingham Libraries have called for the three threatened libraries to be used this way and believe it could have been a key reason in the decision.
