Before you Leave
  1. Please ensure the room is left in a tidy state. Brushes and a dust pan and brush are kept by the sink in the toilet.
  2. Please take all your rubbish away with you – there are no refuse collections from the Reading Room.
  3. Please ensure all lights and heaters are turned off and windows are closed.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Please can you note that as a cost cutting measure the Council will no longer be paying for refuse collections from the wheelie bins outside the Reading Room.

Can you therefore take all waste material away from the Reading Room for disposal elsewhere.

We appreciate your co-operation in this request.
