The shake-up, external - aimed at saving the city council £700,000 a year - will also see Derby's Central Library relocated from its current Wardwick base to the Council House on Corporation Street.

It will mean the loss of 46 jobs - 39 library staff and seven cleaners.

The 10 libraries set to be managed by volunteers are Chellaston, Sinfin, Chaddesden, Blagreaves, Allestree, Allenton, Mackworth, Spondon, Springwood and Derwent.

The council will run Central Library (to be renamed Riverside LIbrary after its move), Local Studies Library, Alvaston, Pear Tree and Mickleover.
