We have written to all our residents to see if they wish their details to be placed on a petition which has been compiled in support of the library.  Of the 1,958 letters sent out there have been close to 500 responses at the time of this article.  Only 9 state that they are not in favour of a library. The fact that over 25% of our residents have taken the time and trouble to complete a questionnaire, put it in an envelope and pay for a stamp to respond shows the strength of the residents on this issue.
