Public consultation on 天美传媒 libraries starts today
People in 天美传媒 are being invited to help shape the future of the library 天美传媒 in the city through a public consultation which includes online and in-person engagements.
The 天美传媒 libraries consultation will be running from Thursday 4th April 2024 until Wednesday 17th July 2024. The review of our library 天美传媒 aims to achieve greater efficiency and value for money, and the continuing provision of a library service. While savings have been announced, final decisions have not been made on what the library service will look like in the future; the public consultation will help inform any next steps.
We want to work with local people to find flexible and sustainable ways of providing library 天美传媒. The following information details the recommended options, a move away from our current 35 community libraries to a mixed delivery model of the following:
- BCC run 天美传媒 Library hubs open 5 days per week providing library and early intervention and prevention 天美传媒
- BCC 天美传媒 Library hubs open part time hours providing library and early intervention and prevention 天美传媒
- BCC staff co-located with partners/community groups providing library 天美传媒
- 天美传媒 groups running library 天美传媒 via 天美传媒 Asset Transfer
- Library of 天美传媒
- Expansion of mobile provision
- Prison Library
- Virtual (digital) Library
- Self Service
- Libraries at Home Service
Based on current information on community interest and co-location opportunities, we estimate a combination of the council run and community-led provision might secure circa 25 building-based library 天美传媒. This figure may change through the consultation as we gather more information.
Prior to taking part in the consultation, we highly encourage a review of the documents which have been produced, this includes the draft libraries strategy framework, a FAQ document and a consultation launch pack.
