Central Library Forced To Close 
BY ANTONY HOPKER

The lights have gone out on bookworms in Coventry as a power cut has forced the city’s central library to close.

The building in Smithford Way was shut yesterday morning because fuses blew, and electricians have not yet been able to repair the damage.

With lighting and electrical equipment such as issuing machines not working, the library could be shut for much of the day.

It should be open later this afternoon, but people should ring on 024 7683 2314 before coming along in case it is still closed.

Assistant City Librarian Colin Scott said:

"We've closed the library while the fault is being sorted out for health and safety reasons.

“If customers want to bring items back they can still do so at the Information Centre downstairs, although they won't be able to take anything else out."

The mobile library will still be on its usual route around the city.
