  • Executive Summary of Library and One Stop Shop Service Consultation Report Background
    Executive summary of Library and one stop shop service consultation report Background Cornwall Council, like other local authorities, has to find substantial budget savings and further Government funding cuts have resulted in a required saving of £1.8 million from the Libraries and One Stop Shop £4m budget. Cornwall Council consulted, between 1 April and 10 June 2015, with stakeholders and the public on their views for how the future Library and One Stop Shop service could be delivered in the face of budget savings equating to approximately 40% over the next two years. The consultation and engagement programme aimed to provide the opportunity for everyone to comment on options and voice their concerns, views and ideas for future delivery of library and one stop shop services. The consultation responses have informed the recommendation for a preferred option for the running of library and one stop shop services. Two service models were outlined for consultees to consider and everyone was also encouraged to propose other models of service delivery identified within the report as model X. Model A: Transfer or ‘devolve’ the operation of libraries to other interested parties e.g. to a Town/Parish Council or community organisation Model B: Alternative whole service model e.g. transfer the operation of libraries to a trust, commercial organisation, or social enterprise, or through outsourcing A business case form was available on the Councils website and in hard copy for those groups and organisations interested in devolved service delivery models (Model A). A soft market test was undertaken and a notice was published on tendersincornwall.co.uk and Contracts Finder for companies or groups interested in the delivery of a whole service model (Model B).

Uaunton BARNICOTT &- PEARCE, ATHEN^UM PRESS 1907 BARNICOTT AND PEARCE PRINTERS Preface. T is usual to write something as a preface, and this generally appears to be to make some excuse for having written at all. In a pre- face to Tom Toole and his Friends — a very interesting book published a few years ago, by Mrs. Henry Sandford, in which the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, together with the Wedgwoods and many other eminent men of that day figure,—the author says, on one occasion, when surrounded by old letters, note books, etc., an old and faithful servant remon- " " strated with her thus : And what for ? she " demanded very emphatically. There's many a hundred dozen books already as nobody ever reads." Her hook certainly justified her efforts, and needed no excuse. But what shall I say of this } What for do 1 launch this little book, which only refers to the parish ot Mylor ^ vi Preface. The great majority of us are convinced that the county of our birth is the best part of Eng- land, and if we are folk country-born, that our parish is the most favoured spot in it. With something of this idea prompting me, I have en- deavoured to look up all available information and documents, and elaborate such by personal recollections and by reference to authorities.
