14.41 A research paper produced in 2011 by the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLAC) identifies a number of potential benefits of community run libraries: • Local Authorities – reducing costs, achieving economic and policy objectives around employment, deprivation and community engagement, as well as social benefits. • Communities – the opportunity for consumers to be included as participants and have influence over their service provision, and to respond to placebased needs through co-location, asset transfer and income generation. • Users – continued access, and in some cases increased or improved access to library services when library buildings would otherwise have closed. They meet the needs of people who want access to information, books and other media, including the internet and the civic space for study, learning, reading or simply meeting others. 14.42 Surrey’s PVR report made it clear that continued support through stock and IT provision, as well as training and other support will be offered to libraries such as New Haw and Virginia Water. To ensure standards and service, key expectations would be clearly identified to potential partners; however a flexible approach would be adopted to ensure that community partnerships could be tailored to the local community 48 . 14.43 Addlestone and Egham libraries have self service technology which will also go into New Haw and Virginia Water to support the community partnerships. 14.44 Libraries are increasingly being asked to take on more activities on behalf of councils and government (e.g. concessionary bus passes), putting additional pressure on a strained provider. The range of services offered in libraries has increased significantly with libraries playing a key role in helping people to learn and improve IT skills and get on line as government services switch over to online only services. Children's and cultural activities in libraries, reading schemes, author talks, reading groups are always oversubscribed and are likely to need expansion when development occurs over the plan period. 14.45 Specific services which will be relevant over the plan period are summarised as follows: 14.46 Library Direct: This service provides means for people who cannot get to a library themselves to have library provision. It includes at present housebound book services, housebound e-book delivery services, the RNIB book service for blind people, services to residential homes and sheltered housing. It is expanding into provision for young carers and young people with disabilities. It includes dial a ride provision for access to a library for people without a bus pass who meet the need criteria. 14.47 The over 50s population (who are the main users of this service) is set to rise over the plan period. As such it is forecast that the usage of the Library Direct service and the residential homes service (which replaced the mobile library service), is likely to increase over the plan period. 14.48 IT provision and assistive technology in Runnymede libraries: Libraries will need to continue their current key role in providing access to IT and IT skills for communities in Runnymede. Given that education is increasingly using IT for all forms of learning, that there is an ageing population who will consistently need IT help, and that reading formats are becoming increasingly e-based, it is expected that demands on library IT will increase across the board over the plan period. 14.49 Specific changes by 2026 are expected to include: 48 PVR: Surrey Library Service-Community Partnered Libraries Cabinet Report 24 July 2012 Pg 3 Page | 149 Runnymede IDP DRAFT – February 2013
• Increased IT costs, in infrastructure, hardware, licences, wi-fi, technical support and access to IT systems given the predicted increase in the overall population over the plan period and the push to use IT to access services. • Increased need for assistive technology, hardware (mobility assistance, physical impairment equipment, software- e.g. screen readers, magnification etc) given that the population is aging. • Rise of e-books and e-learning and increase in e-use by a generation who have grown up with it. Balance of library stocks and resources will shift to e- resources and e-books. Costs will increase because e-books and e- resources are more expensive than paper because of the licensing arrangements. 60% of stocks will be e-stocks which are 20% more expensive than paper. 14.50 An additional branch library may be required to support the DERA development. Costs and funding sources 14.51 Proposals to change the nature of the service delivery over the plan period have an emphasis on IT provision and electronic resources. This will not require the physical expansion of the existing libraries in the Borough. Instead improvements will be required to improve the quality and range of service, updating the current provision and reflecting the changing needs of the community. 14.52 The main funding source for such changes for such changes over the plan period is considered to come from SCC. In addition however, community partnership libraries are also likely to rely on local fundraising and sponsorship. As with all public services, libraries in Surrey are facing budget cuts to meet the reduced level of revenue available from central Government. The impact of this is reflected in the position set out in the recommendations of the PVR review. 14.53 Funding for specific projects is as follows: 14.54 Library Direct: SCC estimates that the cost of this service over the plan period will be in the region of £333,765. The funding that SCC is able to contribute to this service over the same period is £216,690. This leaves a gap in funding of £117,075. 14.55 IT provision and assistive technology in Runnymede libraries: SCC has confirmed that the cost of the IT project over the plan period would be £2,160,000. The funding that will be provided by SCC over this same period will be £1,635,000. This leaves a funding gap therefore of £525,000. 14.56 Additional branch library at the DERA site: SCC has advised that if a new housing development generates a new community library, then for electrics, licencing, IT equipment, self service kiosks, printers etc, an additional £30,000 per annum would be required to support the library.
