Library performance
Our Library and Museum Enquiry and Service Standards set out the level of service our members can expect, including response times. These standards are reviewed each year and can be found on our Policies, Reports and Publications page.
We regularly monitor our performance and publish the results below. This data comes from our annual library survey, member feedback forms, and internal reviews.
