Cotton, Sally Agency Cooperation Community Attitudes Community Characteristics Community Information Services Community Services Community Support Delivery Systems Financial Support Foreign Countries Information Centers Library Role Library Services Program Descriptions Program Implementation Public Libraries Publicity Reference Services Rural Areas User Needs (Information) Of potential interest to small towns in rural areas, this report describes England's first attempt at applying to a rural area the concept of a multi-agency information and advice center based on a library. The comprehensive review covers all phases of the project: (1) identification of a community's information and advice needs; (2) consultation with existing providers to design an integrated service; (3) establishment of a co-operative management committee and a local liaison group; (4) setting up an information center with shared use of premises; (5) administration of an integrated service through sharing resources and responsibilities; (6) development of joint publicity and marketing of the information services; and (7) identification of a community's reactions to a new service. Part I sets forth the objectives of the project, describes South Molton and its rural hinterland including the area's library and information services, and summarizes steps in project implementation. Part II covers the operation of the project including funding, administration, publicity, and community support. The report emphasizes continuous liaison and cooperation among many organizations in developing a sound basis from which to try to meet local needs. Appendices provide references, a directory of agencies, questionnaires, survey results, sample newsletters, and other related documents. (JHZ)
