AB  - The closing years of the last decade saw the United Kingdom
government trying to implement changes which could drastically alter the
concept of the public library service in this country. These
developments provoked a nationwide reaction from both librarians and the
public which was expressed in the national and local press as well as in
the anticipated professional sources. In the event the measures taken
were not as draconian as feared, but the threat to the public library
service remains. These events are chronicled and illustrated.
