Have your say on BCP Council library service
Residents in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole have the opportunity to have their say on the council’s first library strategy.
If you care about the library service across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole don’t miss the opportunity to put forward your views.
Matti Raudsepp, head of Customer and Property said: “This is the first, but very important step in the process of BCP Council developing a Library Strategy. It is vital we hear from library users – including our residents who use the Home Library Service, along with the voices of children and young people and those residents who do not currently use their local library. If you don’t use your local library, tell us why not.”
Cllr Andy Martin, portfolio holder for Customer, Communications and Culture said: “I passionately believe that our libraries must continue to play an absolutely central role at the heart of our communities, and they should become more important than they have ever been. I am committed to ensuring that our libraries meet the needs and expectations of our community.
“This survey is a valuable opportunity for residents to have their voices heard and help shape the future of our library service. I encourage everyone to take part and share their thoughts and ideas.”
You can take part in the survey by visiting https://haveyoursay.bcpcouncil.gov.uk/libraries. There are three online surveys available for people to complete; one aimed at adults and two designed for children and young people (one for aged 9 and under and one for aged 10+). Users of the home library service will receive their survey directly.
Paper copies of the survey are also available at every BCP Library and there is also an easy-read version of the survey which can be made available upon request.
The survey closes at 11.59pm on 18 June.
