Sorry, this is a bit off topic. When I saw the title of the thread I just had to come here to rant.
My city council (Birmingham, UK) spent a fortune building a now famous, state of the art, library (which admittedly looks like something from a sci fi movie). After spending so much money putting this amazing building into place, the council then made many of the staff redundant and drastically reduced the opening hours.
The old library, though small, at least was well-staffed and was open for decent hours.
Many of the local libraries are suffering from cuts too.
Rant over!
