‘IMPACT’
Introducing and Using the Shared Priorities
Branch & Mobile Libraries Group Weekend School
Friday 11th November – Sunday 13th November 2005
Hoole Hall Hotel, Warrington Road, Hoole, Chester CH2 3PD
INTRODUCTION
We all know that what we do makes a difference to people and to
communities.
But how do we know that?
The first efforts to measure that impact, the ‘Shared Priorities’, were
launched this spring, based on seven areas of policy, which have been
agreed by Government and local councils to be of priority. From these,
the Library Impact Measures are being developed.
In this Weekend School we look at two shared priorities in particular:
improving quality of life for young and older people, and building healthier
communities – looking at the newly-introduced impact measures and
at case studies of work already being done to implement and expand
them.
A BMLG School is for your working life, not just for the weekend!
