The long-awaited committee to look after the interests of West Barnes Library has been named after last night's meeting.

The meeting, which was attended by 25 people, was a follow-up to an initial gathering on March 22, where there was apparently a lot of disagreement about whether elected councillors should sit on the committee.

The following positions were elected:

  • Chair: John Nicholson;
  • Vice-chair: Rachel Taylor;
  • Secretary: Bob Forsberg;
  • Publicity officer: Bob Forsberg;
  • Treasurer: Penny Price.

But the committee is still looking for people to fill the following positions:

  • Volunteer coordinator;
  • Membership secretary;
  • Social and Fundraising officer.

The next meeting will be at the library on Monday, April 11, at 7pm.

The Friends have also set up a new website: fowbl.blogspot.com.
