As part of the next stage of their reopening, libraries in Stirling are once again offering hearing aid batteries, food waste caddy liners and dog waste bags as part of the ‘Select and Collect’ service.
To collect these items, residents should get in touch with the individual libraries via phone or email to arrange an appointment during an available slot.
Items are available in the following quantities when residents contact the library:
– Batteries – two packets of batteries per hearing aid
– Food caddy liners – one roll (max six per year)
– Dog bags – one packet.
Convener of the Community Planning and Regeneration Committee, Councillor Chris Kane, said: “Our much loved libraries offer more than just books, they are important community hubs that provide vital resources for so many of our residents.
We have extended the hours that our libraries are available so we can bring back the supply services for waste bags and hearing aid batteries which have always proved popular.”
Vice Convenor of the Community Planning and Regeneration Committee , Maureen Bennison added “This is another welcome step forward in the re-opening of our libraries as we begin to offer more and more services to our residents.
Safety remains our top priority and it is essential that we maintain this cautious, step-by-step approach, complying with national guidance and helping protect our communities and library workers.”
