Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Changes to Wood Green Library - plans available for public viewing today and tomorrow
A bit short notice but initial plans for the changes to Wood Green Library will be available for public viewing today and tomorrow.
Wood Green Library which will include the Wood Green Customer Services Centre (currently at 48 Station Road).
The Council will be holding two drop-in sessions at Wood Green Library, where you can find out more about the plans to make these extra services available on the ground floor.
The designs for the new-look ground floor will be on show and staff from libraries and customer services will be on hand, as well as the architects, to answer questions.
The sessions will be held:
- Thursday 16 July 6 - 8pm
- Friday 17 July 11am - 2pm

Thanks. Indeed very short notice. What have they themselves done to publicise this?

Meanwhile Marcus Garvey Library in Tottenham is apparently displaying notices saying it will shortly be closed for six months for 'refurbishment'. This is before any plans for the 22-storey Apex tower have been published, they are due in September is the latest claim. Just because the Council has agreed to sell* that bit of land to Grainger which will necessitate the decanting of the Apex House Customer Services into the library, doesn't automatically mean they will be able to go ahead, surely? There is the planning procedure to go through, and the possibility of judicial review, or maybe Grainger will just implode out of sheer hubris. Nothing is final, yet. There's just a smidgeon of democratic process left.
For both Wood Green and Marcus Garvey, the Council is proclaiming this as an advantage, as improvements to the library service. But what has paying my parking tickets in that building have to do with a Library service? Is anyone being taken in by this extreme spin?
* 0.4 hectare of prime brownfield land within 20 yards of one of the best tube lines in London - for £3.4million, secret deal, no tender.

They're building one already next door. Hopefully with something more interesting than a tesco metro underneath. Probably not though.
