Economic Value of Public Libraries #wlic2015

Aldermen and mayors in political
debate March 2015 in Aarhus
Meet the Danish Think Tank Libraires of the Future at at IFLA-poster session at #wlic2015

The first Danish study on the economic impact of the Danish public library - the first assessment of the economic value of the public libraries and new insights to discuss the role libraries play in modern society. 

NEED OF DEMONSTRATING VALUE AND IMPACT
The traditionel role of public libraries is changing, and therefore libraries are finding it in­creasingly difficult to defend their economic justification and have an ever-increasing need to demonstrate their impact on and value for society. User satisfaction and number of book loans are far from adequate if we are to learn more about how to assess the role and impact of libraries. Activity – which can be measured – is one thing; value is quite another.

The understanding of the total value created by libraries has been relative­ly limited. Therefore, the Danish Think Tank initiated the first analysis of its kind: “The Economic Impact of Public Libraires in Denmark”.

Meet the Danish Think Tank Libraires of the Future at at IFLA-poster session. Poster presentations are scheduled between 12:00 and 14:00 on Monday 17 and Tuesday 18 August 2015. Poster board number 32.
The analysis is conducted by Copenhagen Econocmics and supported by the Danish Agency for Culture’s development funds. Hent undersøgelsen i lang udgave eller kort udgave

From input to impact


3 CONTRIBUTIONS

CULTURAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT = DKK 4 BN (USD 600 MIO)
Danes put a value on libraries correspond­ing to a total level of willingness to pay up to DKK 4 bn (USD 600 mio) a year. Significantly, more than the DKK 2.5 bn (USD 370 mio) they current­ly pay for libraries via taxes. This high willingness to pay is that libraries fulfil a crucial role as a cultural, social and educational institution – for both users and non-users.

VALUE THROUGH DIGITAL TRANSITION = DKK 200 MI0 (USD 30 MIO)
50,000 Danes get their computer skills upgraded at libraries every year. This accelerates and eases the transition to a digital society and creates value in the form of savings in the public and private sectors in four effects: the transition to email, digital self-service, increased use of online banking and time savings associated.

VALUE THROUGH READING = DKK 2 BN (USD 300 MIO)
Libraries contribute with DKK 2 bn (USD 300 mio) annually through high­er education productivity gains through three interrelated effects:



1. Libraries improve children’s reading skills
2. Better reading skills directly affect educational level
3. A high level of education produces greater economic benefit

The quantitative impact is 0,1% of GDP.

REFLECTIONS & REACTIONS
The analysis is the first analysis of its kind in Denmark and object to intensive publicity and discussions about the role and impact of public libraries and ways of measuring cultural institutions.

The report has lead to:
A strengthened debate about public libraries and their contribution to society
Qualified debate about the future role and primary tasks of public libraries
Increased political awareness of the impact of public libraries on society
Discussions on how libraries exploit their competences better
Provided competitive’ arguments and improve library advocacy
Introduced new ways of measuring cultural institutions

Oversigt viser årelang nedbarbering af bibliotekerne - lad det være et wake-up call

"Oversigt viser årelang nedbarbering af bibliotekerne – »grænsen er nok nået« ifølge interesseorganisation" er overskriften på en artikel i Kulturmonitor i dag. Og denne milde underdrivelse om at grænsen nok er nået stammer fra mig og Danmarks Biblioteksforening. Den kunne også have været børn der ikke har adgang til bøger bliver dårligere til at læse. Baggrunden for artiklen er en opgørelse som kulturministeriet har lavet til SF’s socialordfører, Theresa Berg-Andersen. Her har ministeren opgjort antallet af for biblioteker fra 2006 og frem til i dag og gjort det klart, at antallet af danske biblioteker er faldet drastisk gennem de sidste 17 år. Opgørelsen viser at at antallet af biblioteksfilialer, er faldet fra 420 (2006) til 310 (2022) altså en en lukning af 1/4 af bibliotekerne. Havde de dykket lidt længere tilbage end til kommunalreformen kunne de se at antallet er halveret siden 1996 hvor der var 900 betjeningssteder. Stof til politisk eftertanke I Kulturmonitor siger

Fremtidens fysiske bibliotek i Slagelse

Idé I mange år havde Slagelse Centralbibliotek ønsket en udbygning. I 2000 blev arkitekt Claus Bjarrum derfor inviteret til at fortælle om biblioteksbyggeri. Han sagde de magiske ord: I har masser af plads, I bruger den bare forkert! Det blev et af udgangspunkterne da projekt Fremtidens fysiske bibliotek tog sin begyndelse. Biblioteket havde også i nogle år haft en række organisatoriske udfordringer. Derfor valgte man at kæde de to ting sammen. Lundgaard konsulenterne blev koblet på en organisationsudvikling, samtidig med at en arkitekt fra Claus Bjarrum A/S fulgte processen. Den ny organisationsplan byggede på fire dimensioner: Kultur, Viden og Information, Børn samt en social dimension. Denne organisation har vi løbende udfoldet, men det er en ganske anden historie. Med udgangspunkt i disse dimensioner tegnede arkitekten tre skitser til et nyt bibliotek i de eksisterende bygninger. Et entusiastisk kulturudvalg traf den endelige beslutning om at iværksætte skitse 1 til godt 10 mio. kr

Der er brug for bibliotekerne som aldrig før også for Vanopslagh

Hen over sommeren har der været en del debat om biblioteket, som opstod i kølvandet på at formanden for Liberal Alliances Alex Vanopslagh i sin bog ’Vejen til ansvar’ forslår at lukke bibliotekerne. Debatten koger stadig og i dag tager vi en tur i et par radiokanaler, hvor Radio4 sætter emnet til debat kl. 9.00-10.00 og Paw Østergaard Jensen, formand for Danmarks Biblioteksforening spiller ud i Radio4 kl. 09.35 i en snak om, hvorfor det er der er behov for bibliotekerne som ingensinde før og det er da også landets mest besøgte kulturinstitution. P1 Debat forsætter Kl 12.15 -13.30 (denne er udsat til senere på ugen) hvor spørgsmålene igennem debatten bliver: ’Luk folkebibliotekerne? Kan og bør private erstatte dem? Vil det sætte viden, dannelse og lokalsamfund og sammenhængskraft over styr, hvis man lukker? Er bogen død? Er det bibliotekernes rolle at holde diverse arrangementer? Og er systemet indrettet rigtigt i kommunalt regi?’ Panelet er: Jens Kristian Lütken (V) KBH, Simon Fe
