Wellington Town Council and Telford & Wrekin Council have agreed a partnership deal for the Town Council to take over the day-to-day management of Wellington Library.

The agreement, which comes into effect from Tuesday 1 April, will see the library service and staff transfer to Wellington Town Council, following the same management model that has proved effective at other community libraries in the borough.

Wellington Library will remain at Wellington Civic Centre and will continue to be open seven days a week, staffed on the same days as it currently is, therefore the transfer should be seamless for customers.

Telford & Wrekin Council’s First Point, providing access to the local authority’s services will also remain at Wellington Library.
