HC Deb 11 December 1973 vol 866 cc75-6W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if she will make a statement concerning the future of the library service for education and the teaching profession.

Mr. St. John-Stevas

Following local government reorganisation the public library authorities and the education authorities will be the same and there will be increased opportunities for beneficial links between the public library service and the education service. I am considering the implications for library services for teachers of the proposals in the White Paper "Education: A Framework for Expansion".
