Jo Palmer, Minister for Education

Support for our libraries is clear

As the Minister for Education, I am responsible for overseeing the operations of Libraries Tasmania.

I have already said publicly the Tasmanian Government will not be cutting library hours.

I cannot be any clearer:

We will not be cutting library hours.

We will not be reducing regional library hours.

Regional libraries are the lifeblood of our communities.

I will continue to engage with the Union and ensure Library employees understand their job is secure under our Government.
