Closure Of Carnegie Library In Lambeth

The closed Carnegie Library in Herne Hill, south London. The local community occupied their important resource for learning and social hub. After a long campaign by locals, Lambeth have gone ahead and closed the library's doors for the last time because they say, cuts to their budget mean millions must be saved. They plan to re-purpose it into a gym although details are unknown.
