The site was torched by vandals in dramatic rioting in the summer on County Road
A community has come together in a celebration of its unbeatable spirit to make the rebirth of a hub targeted and torched by vandals during the height of the summer riots.
Scores of libraries – from Lancashire and Newcastle to Southampton, Cornwall and even the Isle of Wight took part. Ahead of this evening’s procession, which featured children from neighbouring Arnot St Mary School, infinity symbol lights were shone in the sky above the library on Tuesday evening. The theme of light has been used to symbolise libraries as places of sanctuary, knowledge and community.
