In a passionate appeal to protect treasured communal amenities, local lyricist Dick Appleton composed a song titled ‘Oh, Mr Councillor’ to rally support for the effort to safeguard libraries in North East Lincolnshire, encompassing Grimsby and Cleethorpes. The song, with the refrain ‘Oh, Mr Councillor, hear our plea: save our Central Library,’ seeks to increase the understanding and stimulate active engagement in the continuing public consultation about the destiny of these crucial establishments. The residents are being encouraged to voice their standpoints before the closure of the consultation on 9 July. This information was adapted from the original report carried out by www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk, relayed by us at The Lincoln Post.
