Common Sense in Dorset
It looks like Common Sense is breaking out in Dorset.
There is an inspiring article in the local paper
If anybody down there see this- the key is to ask the council to indicate in detail where the staff costs are incurred. They will find that relatively little is in the actual libraries. I would be delighted to help if asked
I have mentioned the poor financial analysis provided to the councillors and people of Dorset before.
It is possible to reduce the administrative cost of a library service by 90% these days.
There's another article this morning in the Dorset Echo. And another piece this evening. Not only are the people of Dorset doing a marvellous job, but so are their local newspapers.
