Welcome to Libraries is a magazine-style guide funded by Arts Council England, designed to impart valuable insights and links for public library staff and welcome you into your new role, providing the information you need as you begin your career journey.
Welcome to Libraries celebrates public libraries as an indispensable part of local communities. Library leaders want their service to reflect the rich diversity of the populations they serve, be free at the point of contact, and be
welcoming and inclusive to all. This guide, developed with input and expertise of members of staff in public libraries across England, was created with those priorities in mind.
