Abstract
Overcoming disadvantage at the level of communities is a key means of delivering on wider development goals, as well as delivering on individuals’ rights. Libraries have the potential to contribute strongly to regeneration and revitalisation efforts, in particular from the point of view of promoting meaningful inclusion, as illustrated by the available literature. However, they are arguably under-used in this respect, and could be better integrated into planning and delivery (including spending). In this way, they can come closer to making the strongest possible contribution.
