Young people have their say on libraries

Borough of Poole is inviting under-16s to fill in a questionnaire about the children's services currently on offer at libraries across the town.

They will be asked about their experiences of using the library and the available resources, and encouraged to draw or write down any ideas to make the library better for them.

They can complete the questionnaire at Poole Central, Branksome, Broadstone, Canford Cliffs, Canford Heath, Hamworthy, Oakdale, Parkstone and Rossmore libraries from September 24 to 29.

Library staff will be on hand to assist young people who want to complete a questionnaire.

Copies of the questionnaire will also be available from Borough of Poole's mobile library between September 24 and October 6.

Cllr Peter Adams, Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Culture and Leisure, said: "Libraries play a big part in many of our young people's lives and are a valuable resource for their learning experiences. It is important that we listen to our young library users so that the service we provide remains relevant and useful."

Borough of Poole libraries offer a range of services and events for children. As well as books and magazines, there is a range of story tapes and CDs, DVDs, videos and computer games, plus books for teenage readers.
