I do symphasise with the Library manager and his staff however one visit enough for me and after reading the last post about chicken etc I will keep well away.
So far the Beckenham Library is run on far better lines and has a lot more books.
If Lewisham just want a youth club that is fine but why not call it that.
The last poster mentions the staff reprimanding the children. Are you joking you get longer for reprimanding children than for murder.
If it ever returns to a proper library then please let me know.
