DISCUSSION

Operational and Project Activities

Statistics

4 Total loans for the period 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018 were 1,238,126 representing a decrease of 59,686 or -4.6% of loans compared to the same period in 2016/17. Decreased loans were recorded at all service locations, except for the South Dunedin Community Pop Up Library and Service Centre which opened on 8 September 2017.

5 Total loans from the Mosgiel Library in 2017/18 were 206,675, down by 8,586 loans or -4.0% compared to 2016/17. Total loans for the Bookbuses in 2017/18 were 93,066 loans, down by 1,805 loans or -1.9% compared to 2016/17. A more detailed breakdown of borrowing from the Bookbus stops in the Mosgiel Taieri Community Board area is presented in paragraph 17 below.

6 This trend for reduced borrowing is mirrored throughout New Zealand and overseas, reflecting changes in customer usage patterns with increased use of digital content.

7 Total visitation to Libraries in 2017/18 increased by 11,198 visits or 1.0% compared to 2016/17. The key driver for this increase was new visitation to the South Dunedin Community Pop Up Library and Service Centre.

8 Total visitation to the Mosgiel Library in 2017/18 was 143,990, down by 3,076 visits or -2.1% compared to 2016/17. Total visitation to the Bookbuses was 67,517, down by 2,574 visits or -3.7% compared to 2016/17.

9 A total of 119,897 reference enquiries were received by Libraries during 2017/18 representing a decrease of 11,758 enquiries or -8.9% compared to the same period in 2016/17. Total reference enquiries received by the Mosgiel Library in 2017/18 were 10,574, up by 239 enquiries or 2.3% on 2016/17. Total reference enquiries received by the Bookbuses in 2017/18 were 20,462, up by 535 enquiries or 2.7% compared to 2016/17.

Service Centres

10 Attachment A provides a summary of the range and level of transactions through the Mosgiel Service Centre in the period from 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018 and a comparison with the same period in 2016/17.

11 A total of 5,258 Service Centre transactions were conducted at the Mosgiel Library Service Centre, down by 879 transactions or -14.3% compared to 2016/17. Key changes in the Service Centre transactions were fewer animal registrations, parking ticket and rates payments compared to 2016/17, with a trend for increased online payments.

12 The reported closure of the Mosgiel New Zealand Post office at the end of the year may increase the volume of rates payments at the Mosgiel Library Service Centre.

· Syrian Tour

In June 2018, a group of 10 Syrian refugees along with their tutor, a translator and three helpers visited the Mosgiel Library and Service Centre. The group was provided with a tour of the Library and all were registered as library members. The group made another visit a week later to focus on areas most relevant to them for their classes.

· Sea Week

On 5 March and to support Sea Week 2018, professional storyteller Kaitrin McMullan presented her ‘Stupendous Pinniped Puppet Show’ to an entranced audience of 97 children and 17 adults.

Mosgiel Library Service Centre Building

14 The following activities related to the Mosgiel Library and Service Centre building were undertaken:

· Planning and design for the Mosgiel Library roof replacement project

· Installation of motor scooter parking near the front door of the Mosgiel Library

· Replacement of three defective heaters

Council Collaboration

15 The Mosgiel Library and Service Centre has been active in collaboration with other Council departments through a two-week display of the Public Art Lab, display and venue for the consultation on the 2018/28 10-Year Plan and by providing staff support for the Dunedin Customer Services team during staff meetings.

Bookbus Timetable

16 The Dunedin Public Libraries Bookbus visits Mosgiel for one hour and forty minutes on Wednesdays. Stop locations and times are as follows:

Willow Park: 11.30am – 12 noon

Brooklands: 1.15pm – 2.00pm

Elmgrove: 2.15pm – 2.40pm

Bookbus Usage

17 The pattern of low Bookbus usage in the Mosgiel area continued into 2018, with the Mosgiel stops being among the least used of all 49 Bookbus stops. The Bookbus librarian has reported that there are only two regular customers at Willow Park and Brooklands, with no borrowing at Elmgrove for the year to date. This low usage contrasts sharply with other Community Board areas, without access to a community library. For example, there is an average of 42 items borrowed at each of the twelve stops in the Otago Peninsula and Saddle Hill areas.

Average Weekly Loans	2014	2015	2016	2017	2018 to August	Mins at stop
Willow Park	19	18	20	13	12	30
Brooklands	8	7	9	7	8	45
Elmgrove	15	10	20	14	0	25
Total Loans	42	35	49	34	20

18 Promotional activities, letterbox drops, and newspaper articles have been used to raise awareness of the Mosgiel Bookbus stops over several years, but have been unable to favourably impact Bookbus usage over this time.

Mobile Library Services Review

19 The final report from the consultant working on the Mobile Library Services Review has been received and is being considered. An internal project manager has been appointed to oversee the implementation of the final outcomes of the review.

20 In the 2018/28 10-Year Plan, Council has approved $600,000 in 2018/19 for the replacement of the current Bookbus vehicles and the implementation of the Mobile Library Services Review.
