Eleven Hampshire libraries saved by volunteers

Available for over a year

A BBC investigation found 183 libraries closed in the UK since 2016 with nearly 950 reducing their opening hours. Hampshire County Council cut the funding of 14 libraries in the last seven years, with three having to close completely. But some are faring after being taken over by the community and run by volunteers. The BBC's Hampshire & Isle of Wight political reporter Emily Hudson explains which libraries have been affected.
