LIBRARY bosses have announced it is business as usual.
Durham County Council’s Peterlee Library, which shared the same site in Burnhope Way with East Durham and Houghall Community College, is operating as normal despite the college moving to a new site in the town.
Rosemary Laxton, the County Council’s head of libraries, learning and culture, said: "Peterlee Library is one of our best performing libraries and even though the college has moved to Howletch, I’m happy to say we are still very much open for the community of Peterlee."
The library is open from 9.30am to 7pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 9.30am to 12.30pm on Wednesday, and 9am to 4pm on Saturday.
