LAST year the Friends left surveys in the library to get a better idea of what people like or would want to see improved.
Thirty percent of those who responded said they visited the library weekly, and 22% once a fortnight. More than half solely used Molesey Library.
Some 87% said they borrow books, 30% borrow DVDs and 43% use the internet computers. Some 17% come in to read the newspapers and 9% borrow audio books.
The most popular reason for visiting the library, with 91%, was for recreational reading.
Suggestions for improving the service included displaying boards about local history, increasing the number of computers, and offering a post office counter and pub!
Others suggested that community notices and a tea and coffee stand would be welcome, and as these are existing offerings, staff will give thought to better ways of promoting these services.
We thank everyone who took the time to take part in the survey.
