CHILDREN across the borough are being asked what they think about libraries as part of a nationwide survey.
Between Monday (October 17) and Sunday, October 30, Dudley Council will be running a survey asking how children and young people use the library and how satisfied they are with particular services and with the library overall.
From these results, the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy’s (CIPFA) library survey gathers information to map the recent trends for local authority run libraries across the UK.
Councillor Rachel Harris, cabinet member for health and wellbeing, said: “The way in which people use libraries is constantly changing and so it’s important that we carry out these surveys so that we can provide the type of library service that users want.”
Parents and carers are being advised to complete the survey – which can be completed at any Dudley borough library – for children aged up to seven.
If older children are unable to complete the questionnaire by themselves, then parents, carers or members of staff at the library can help.
