Dear All,
Rosemary Combridge has just drawn my attention to this. It may interest
some list subscribers.

Forwarded message follows:
You may have seen the reports concerning the projected 7% cut in the
British Library's annual budget which, if put into effect, are likely to
lead to charging readers for admission, reductions in opening hours and
the closure of the Colindale Newspaper Library.
Anyone who has been there recently will know that the BL is already
struggling to meet the demands on its resources. It needs extra funding,
not further cuts.
If you would like to register your opposition to these cuts, there is
now a petition on the No.10 website:

All the best
Martin
