- Open to All? is the report of the research project “Public Library Policy and Social Exclusion”. The project has been funded by the Library and Information Commission and , subsequently, Resource, the Council for Museums, Archives and Libraries, as part of its Value and Impact of Libraries programme. It has been based at the School of Information Management, Leeds Metropolitan University and conducted in partnership with the London Borough of Merton (Libraries), Sheffield Libraries, Archives and Information Services, and John Vincent, an independent consultant. The research was conducted between October 1998 and April 2000. Because of the wide-ranging scope of the research, comprising working papers, case studies in the field and a survey, its findings are published in three volumes. This volume (Vol. 3) gathers together the working papers produced during the course of the project. The other two volumes are organised as follows: Volume 1: Overview and Conclusions comprises an overview of the key issues and findings of the study and the final project conclusions and recommendations (openly access it full text here at E-LIS: http://eprints.rclis.org/archive/00003775/01/lic084.pdf) Volume 2: Survey, Case Studies and Methods contains the detailed empirical findings of the research.
