Metropolitan Libraries Annual Statistical Survey
The Statistics collate information from the member libraries including population, number of libraries and staff, budgets, acquisitions, fees, collections and materials, membership, visitors, loans, opening hours, enquiries, internet provision and usage, multicultural activities and outreach services. The Statistics also include website addresses of Metropolitan Libraries Section member libraries.
Prior to 2004, the statistics were compiled by Hannover Public Library. Toronto Public Library has assumed responsibility for the compilation of data referring to the years 2004-2010. Since 2012 Helsinki City Library has taken over the project.
