Your Voice Matters: Participate in the National Library Social Impact Survey


Hamilton Public Library is proud to partner with the Canadian Urban Libraries Council (CULC) on an important nationwide initiative that will shape the future of public libraries across Canada. They are measuring the social impact of public libraries, and they need your help to make this research comprehensive and meaningful.


Why This Survey Matters

Public libraries are more than just repositories of books – they're vital community hubs that provide essential services, foster learning, create connections, and support the diverse needs of residents. This groundbreaking study will help them better understand how libraries contribute to the social fabric of our communities and identify opportunities for improvement.

Your participation in this survey will directly contribute to:


  • Improving HPL services based on real community feedback

  • Enhancing programs and resources that matter most to Hamilton residents

  • Building stronger community connections through library initiatives

  • Informing future library planning across Canada



Who Should Participate?

Everyone! Whether you're a regular library member who visits weekly, someone who occasionally drops by for events, or even if you've only used library services once or twice – your perspective is valuable. They want to hear from all community members, regardless of how frequently you use library services.


Quick and Anonymous

The survey is designed to be completed quickly while providing meaningful insights. Your responses are completely anonymous, so you can share honest feedback about your experiences and suggestions for improvement without any concerns about privacy.
