Just a few photos from today’s silent protest on Main St/ PCH. I have an injured knee, so I wasn’t able to walk from the Main St Branch Library. Luckily, I got a good parking spot next to Pier Plaza. I love all the creative, homemade signs! #handsoffourlibrary
The beleaguered Hendon Library, saved but not saved by @BarnetLabour. Why is the rebuild at the rear not solely for public use? Sharing a @MiddlesexUni auditorium sounds fantastic but the community does not get 1st pick. Disingenuous plan. #HandsOffOurLibrary
@LibraryCampaign @BarnetCouncil
seeks to demolish rear extension of Hendon Library and turnover it over to 'anyone having a requisite interest in the site' for the purpose of a number of planning obligations. Looks like they're offloading a public asset of community importance
@SaveHendon @MiddlesexUni @BarnetCouncil The stunning façade of Hendon Library exudes gravitas and grandeur. Who would not want to be part of this magnificent building? #RidingOnCoatTails #StopTheHendonLandGrab #HandsOffOurLibrary
@SaveHendon @MobilisePublic "Barnet Council have asked you to ask us to tell you" 🤣🤣 about what we think of @BarnetCouncil & @MiddlesexUni's baby - #HendonHub. We did tell you in 2021 but you are not scaling it down in any way. #nonsultation #HandsOffOurLibrary #StoptheHendonLandGrab
@LibraryCampaign @SaveHendon The iconic flagship Library of Barnet where archives are stored, the go-to place for local studies/research, where school resources are provided...Not just for Hendon residents but all of Barnet & further afield. #HandsOffOurLibrary

Built for the public & saved by the public. I remain simultaneously nostalgic about visits in the good old days as well as recent demos outside chambers of the Town Hall where people wielded placards & spoke to save our beloved Library. #HandsOffOurLibrary
To celebrate the saving of Hendon Library, here are some photographs of the civic heart of Hendon from the early 20th Century
Thank you to all those who have preserved this historic space!
The Tory "debilitate flagship Hendon Library so that it can justifiably be turned into @MiddlesexUni's business school" #HendonHub plan = a terrible way to destroy a notable & cherished community asset. #handsoffourlibrary
Gather in response to an array of egregious, inappropriate, racist and unethical behavior by the Anchorage Library Deputy Director of Services Judy Eledge.
9/9: We have a strong, viable community plan, created with the expertise of neighbours who hail from a variety of specialisms. We're so excited to discuss with the new Labour administration in the hope that it's not too late to scale things down. #HandsOffOurLibrary #Hope4Hendon
6/9: In January 2022, @BarnetTories voted to move the community's library into PART of the GROUND FLOOR of an ugly new multi-storey block & lease the library to @MiddlesexUni to use as their Business School. #HandsOffOurLibrary
@LibraryCampaign Today, we found this wonderful photograph of our library from 1931 when it was known as The Central Library. Our Independent Candidate @franca4hendon has been campaigning with us for the past 15 months to save it. Roll on Judicial Review …#HandsOffOurLibrary #GiveOneVoteToFranca
Hendon Library then known as “Central Library” and Hendon Town Hall c. 1931. Those gates! #HandsOffOurLibrary #SaveHendon
@BarnetCouncil & @MiddlesexUni's #HendonHub new library consultation was rigged:
- no option given to keep existing library
- Qs only asked what services residents would want in new library. Skewed results implying a new library is needed.
#HandsOffOurLibrary
In 2015 I helped the national campaigning coalition ‘Speak up for Libraries’ write their ‘Manifesto for Libraries’ and sadly 7 years later we are still fighting for a long-term future 😞

@BarnetTories We need our heritage public library building back. It's not the same replacing it in the ground floor of a residential block with insufficient space & staff to be make it a state of the art facility. #StoptheHendonLandGrab #HandsOffOurLibrary

We need proper funding.
We need proper staffing.
We need proper policies/strategies.
We need hope.
We need your support.

CALLING HENDON! This is not a drill. https://t.co/DbMWu8kKxP via @UKChange #GiveOneVoteToFranca #HandsOffOurLibrary #SaveHendon
Heritage shouldn’t be something a council picks up or drops depending on their development plans. It creates a sense of character, place and civic pride for our communities. It must be protected. Because once it’s gone it’s gone. #GiveOneVoteToFranca *FACEBOOK LIVE EVENT SOON!*
@BrokenBarnet I'm practically barefoot all the time. Must be super balmy where I am..oh. I'm in Hendon where it's truly barmy; it's where @BarnetTories lost their heads & voted for #HendonHub. #StoptheHendonLandGrab #HandsOffOurLibrary #saveourcommunity
