The Provincial Library and Libraries Nova Scotia are looking for feedback from library users who take advantage of the province's Borrow Anywhere, Return Anywhere service.
University, college, and public library users can provide feedback about the program by filling out a short survey online during November and December.
"The Borrow Anywhere, Return Anywhere program helps put books and learning resources in the hands of Nova Scotians," said Education Minister Marilyn More. "The survey is a way for the province to improve library services to better serve families in every region of the province -- particularly those who travel to find the books they want to read."
Since September 2009, Borrow Anywhere, Return Anywhere has allowed Nova Scotians to borrow materials from any university, college or public library in the province and return the materials to the library of their choice.
"Library users are thrilled with the convenience this initiative provides," said Robert Campbell, librarian at Cape Breton University and co-chair of Libraries Nova Scotia. "It's like every citizen of Nova Scotia having a library in their own backyard."
The survey is available at
