  • Performance Changes Caused by Increases in Camden Libraries’ Opening Hours
    PERFORMANCE CHANGES CAUSED BY INCREASES IN CAMDEN LIBRARIES’ OPENING HOURS In January 2009, Camden Council increased the opening hours of its public libraries. However, it did not increase the opening hours by a constant number or a constant proportion, but by a method which favoured bigger libraries. CPLUG had argued strenuously against this, but to no avail. CPLUG’s Concerns The suggested reason for increasing Camden’s library opening hours was that it would enable more people to visit the libraries. CPLUG did not disagree with this assumption and attempted to ensure that the available resources were allocated where they would do the most good, rather than where was most bureaucratically convenient. This “value for money” argument went unheeded. One of CPLUG’s major concerns was the effect that a large allocation of resources to the Swiss Cottage Library (library no. 3 in map below) would have on the surrounding smaller libraries. In the recent past, this library has benefited when other libraries have not. Thus, the public increasingly has tended to use Swiss Cottage in place of the local libraries. It is to be expected that this cannibalisation of the user pool will lead to a continually reinforced downward spiral for the small libraries and is a recipe for eventual library closures - very bad news for those who have difficulty travelling. It is also bad for community cohesion and for the environment. It is tempting to assume that the cost of implementing the opening hours changes is simply proportional to the change in those hours. However, the size of the library has a marked affect on the cost.

I am delighted that this year’s theme is “the spoken word.” As a linguist myself I place great value on the use and importance of language. The activities this year cover a wide range of different forms including rap, writing, song, film and performing arts. These events involve many local groups and organisations, ranging from the Roundhouse to Nostalgie Ya Mboka, a local Congolese radio station. Although I only became Leader following the local elections in May, I have been a Camden Councillor in West Hampstead for over 12 years and have the pleasure of working with many of the groups and organisations taking part in Black History Month. I am really pleased that the events cover the length and breadth of the borough, as well as catering for many different tastes and interests, and that most are free or low cost.

  • Sample Community Library Business Plan PHCL
    BUSINESS PLAN SAMPLE TEMPLATE On 25th July 2017 the inaugural meeting of the Libraries Peer Network Pilot took place. A number of libraries agreed to share information for the benefit of new and existing community libraries in the UK. For its part Primrose Hill Community Library agreed to share its business plan, and that plan, revised last year, is attached. We hope it may be useful in provoking ideas for others, although we are very conscious every library has its own special set of circumstances. Potential Use Of The Plan Our business plan was designed to be multi-functional so that one version could provide the information required for the local council, for our donors, for potential grant givers and for volunteers and users. When our library was slated for closure by the local council, the two arguments made were; (a) that it was ‘surplus to requirements’, given that a number of larger libraries were reasonably close, and (b) general comments about scarcity of council funds. The first battle, which we seem to be winning, is to prove we are not surplus to requirements. We felt it was important to have a scientific basis for it and that our work should be seen in the context of Camden Council’s library plans. For this reason we sought to collect data sets comparable to the data collected by the local council network, and also look particularly at the vulnerable groups for which we play a special role i.e. the very young and very old for whom being close is essential.
