There could be more publicity about events at the libraries, but  of course it’s up to the Council to advertise them if they are Council sponsored events. As I’ve pointed out before the pages of Around Ealing could be used for such information, indeed it could carry a comprehensive listing for all events for the coming months. It would be a lot more useful than the ramblings of Comrade Bell. Drop into Northfields library when it’s open and you will see that it’s pretty busy most of the time. When I moved to Northfields some years ago it was open late for a few evenings, which made it very useful for anyone getting off the Tube. We were told at last week’s meeting, which wasn’t held at the library but at a (presumably) hires church hall, that borrowing numbers have fallen but are still reasonably strong. Clearly numbers will drop if the library isn’t open all the time but people are still making an effort to use it. Close it and tell everyone to trek up to Ealing Broadway will simply see a large number of library users give up on the service. Here’s the petition link again: https://ealing.cmis.uk.com/ealing/E-petitions/tabid/143/ID/73/Save-Ealing-s-Seven-Libraries.aspx
