National recognition for Staffordshire Libraries

| Help shape the future of our libraries |
| Did you know Staffordshire’s library service has been recognised nationally by Arts Council England as one of the best in the country for working with local communities?
We’re proud of all our service’s achievements, but now we want to hear from you.
Libraries today are so much more than places to borrow books. They’re safe, welcoming spaces where you can learn, connect, create and discover.
So, what would make your local library even better? More activities? Different services? A new way to use the space? This is your chance to shape the future of our 43 libraries and mobile library service.
The consultation runs until 5 January. Share your ideas online or pick up a paper copy at any Staffordshire library
Your feedback will help us make libraries even more useful and exciting for everyone. |
