Open Library System

 The open library model represents a new way of working for public libraries. It is designed to be used a complimentary and integral part of the overall service delivery. The idea is based on a successful model pioneered and extensively used in Scandinavia. It uses technology and processes to enable a library to open with or without staff needing to be present. This technology enables councils to make further choices about how services are delivered and can be used to maintain or even extend opening times to suit the needs of the individual community they serve at a time when austerity is forcing Local Authorities to reduce opening hours or even close libraries.

Open Libraries offers a significant departure to the service delivery, this innovation and new way of working offers potential benefits far beyond just the extension of library opening hours. The potential is limited to the imagination of those stakeholders engaged in optimising the benefits of the library service and lies in the creation and maintenance of community hubs and in supporting the national aspirations for libraries across the world.
