The Swift Library Consortium consists of 22 Public Library Services (16 across Victoria and six located in NSW including Marrickville Library & History Services). These libraries share a single catalogue, processes and procedures. This provides library patrons with a greater range and variety of titles to choose from when wanting to borrow from their local library. In addition, the Consortium has been able to generate savings to libraries through its combined purchasing position.
The sharing of collections alone has seen the level of loans between Consortium libraries increase from 50,000 items in 2007 to 650,000 in the last year.
To further improve the services offered to our patrons, Swift is seeking Marrickville Library patron’s views during the month of November 2011.
The survey can be done online or by filling in a survey form at Marrickville Library.
