Pepys Resource Centre mentioned in Parliament

Pepys Resource Centre was mentioned in a Parliamentary debate on library services by local Member of Parliament, Joan Ruddock (Lewisham,Deptford).

"In a constant drive for efficiency, Lewisham has also developed new models. We acquired three additional community libraries over those years. One, at the Pepys resource centre in my constituency, is run by ECO Computer Systems in partnership with Hyde Housing and is supported by local volunteers and, crucially, by the council's library and information service, which supports new facilities by providing up-to-date stock, delivering professional advice, organising activities and promotions, training partner organisations and offering technical services such as access to online resources."
