A Civic Future for Community Media and Library Services in Leicester As Leicester City Council embarks on a public consultation about the future of its Library and Information Services, there is a valuable opportunity to open a wider conversation about the role of communication, creativity, and civic storytelling in the life of the city. This consultation process comes at a time when the needs of communities are shifting. In an era of rapid social and technological change, there is a growing recognition that access to editorially independent news, opportunities for meaningful discussion, and platforms for sharing stories that reflect the lived experiences of communities are essential foundations of civic life. https://decentered.co.uk/a-civic-future-for-community-media-and-library-services-in-leicester/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
