Abstract
The Barrie Public Library undertook a study to document its social and economic contributions to the local community. We used The Library’s Contribution to Your Community – a manual developed by Southern Ontario Library Service. This article describes our experience with the manual, why and how we did the study, our key findings and the results of the work.
