Libraries
The Radyr library refurbishment scheme was completed at a total cost of
£565,000 and the library reopened in June. In respect of the Central library,
internal glass panels received a specialist coating in order to comply with
health and safety requirements, with works to the entrance door to be
completed early in 2013/14.
Whilst an application to WG in 2012/13 for £100,000 of grant funding towards
works at Canton Library was unsuccessful, grant of £120,000 has been
awarded for 2013/14. The scheme, expected to cost £700,000, has been
delayed whilst options for service delivery are considered as part of the Hub
proposals. A start on site is expected in July 2013.
