Assessing the Viability of the Belsize Community Library
Público DepositedConteúdo disponível para baixar
open in viewerThe Belsize Community Library (BCL) in Camden, London has faced new challenges serving their community after the withdrawal of government funding. This project identified opportunities for the BCL to obtain sustainable financial support and increase community engagement. We immersed ourselves in seven library activities, interviewed five community libraries and three staff members, surveyed 14 Camden residents, and conducted an analysis of BCL social media platforms. Based on our findings, we offered a series of recommendations for the BCL to generate revenue (e.g., paid events and advertising adult-oriented activities) and increase community engagement (e.g., social media presence, youth events for 11-16-year-olds, and student study space).
