Did Sinn Fein councillor support the closure of the Andersonstown Library?

The Northern Ireland Library Authority approved the closure of a number of libraries in Northern Ireland at Lisburn City Library, 23 Linenhall Street, Lisburn, on Tuesday, 18 May 2010. including Andersonstown library.
Cllr Anne Brolly of Sinn Fein was at that meeting. Did she approve the closure of Andersonstown Library?. This particular library was very dear to me as it introduced me to a love of literature, along with countless many other working class families. No where in the minutes does it record her voting against the closure.

I took part in subsequent protests in a bid to save the library, which failed. These protests were primarily organised by Sinn Fein.

It sounds like Sinn Fein's budget strategy, They voted for the cuts and then took part in trade union marches against the cuts.
