Wheatley Lane gets Self Service install

Wheatley Lane library has now had a Self Service unit installed with a view to extending the opening hours, and the volunteers have been trained. The volunteers were very enthusiastic and the rotas for the next 5 weeks have been allocated. The Library will now open on Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings.
