Libraries All Party Parliamentary Group
The launch of the new Libraries APPG takes place on Wednesday 14 December 2011.
All-party groups are more informal than other cross-party bodies such as select committees of the House. They mainly comprise backbench Members of the House of Commons and Lords but may also include ministers and non-parliamentarians.
