As mentioned, this was opened by Erdington U.D.C. to be inherited by Birmingham in 1912. Similar to on the south side when BHam also inherited the Kings Norton & Northfield U.D.C. libraries. Birmingham has never had a good record of library provision or of maintaining what it has. I won't even mention the current on going crisis..........
