I am extremely disappointed at the further proposed cuts to Sunderland Library Services as reported in the Echo on January 11.

Libraries are a social, educational and cultural facility, providing a community space accessible to everyone.

This includes providing valuable computer access to people who otherwise have no such opportunity.

The consultation process is also laughable.
