Our Mobile
Library Service
Finally in this context, the Mobile Library service had its second major review of its routes and stops. Changes were made in order to make the routes and van maintenance more efficient and ensure that the staff had sufficient travel time.
In addition, new stops were introduced in the final 3 communities where static libraries had closed at the end of 2016/17. These changes have resulted in a small decrease in book issues this year. However we have seen an increase of 1,193 Home Delivery Service book issues reaching 38 Nursing Homes and Sheltered Housing complexes and 243 individuals with a total of 35,880 issues. The service is becoming centralised and standardised ensuring that service for home delivery readers across Fife is of the same high standard regardless of where the readers live.
