The decision on funding and support for years 2020/21 and 2021/22 was delegated to the Cabinet Member and Executive Director.  

 

Therefore, the purpose of the report is to seek approval for future funding and support for Associate and Co-delivered libraries for years 2020/21 and 2021/22 from the Executive Director and Cabinet Member.

Decision:

That the Council:

 

(1)  Continue support for Associate libraries until 31st March 2022 to assist their viability and stability with a support package to the value of £209k. 

 

(2)  The support package to include a grant pot, a new book fund,  a training package and the operational costs of the Associate libraries remaining on the Library Management System. A breakdown of the support package is listed in Section 1.4 ‘Specific Requests of the Proposal’. 

 

(3)  Continued support for the Associate and Co-delivered libraries until 31st March 2022 where this can be resourced by the Library, Archives and Information Service (LAIS) with existing staff and core budget. This includes support from SCC run Hub libraries, advice and support with local and national initiatives, I.T support and training relating to the Library Management System.

 

(4)  Continued support for Co-delivered libraries to 31st March 2022. Co-delivered libraries receive the same offer as SCC’s Hub libraries without the staffing and funded from LAIS core funding.  Building running costs are paid directly by SLAIS.  Co-delivered libraries may be re-charged for running costs that are above the budget due to extended non-library usage of the building.
