Fight to stop rare books sell-off
September 2, 2008 - 1:00pm — Blake
An action group says it is "aghast" at plans to sell some of Wales' oldest and rarest books.
A new action group, Cardiff Heritage Friends, which includes local residents, historians, other academics, solicitors, and librarians, is calling for the council to stop the sale "of some of Wales' greatest treasures".
"Improvements will include technological advances that will benefit all library users across the city," he said.
