SO Central Library, another great building that hundreds of people of all ages rely on and use daily, has to stay shut longer than first thought because of greater repairs.

Why aren’t these buildings checked year on year and repairs carried out instead of ignoring the small problems until they become huge?

I doubt St Helens Town Hall is left when repairs are needed as that would upset all the councillors who use it.

I know other libraries are opening longer but they don’t have as many services as Central Library and it means more travelling for people.
