Some of the data used to produce this report has been revised since initial publication, due to a small change in the way we calculate confidence intervals. Please use the revised Oct-Dec 21 data tables or annual data tables or annual report, rather than the data on this report, for our latest estimates.

Correction 19/5/2022 – The phrase “Respondents from the North West (10%) were less likely to engage with the physical library services than respondents from other regions (12-18%).” was incorrectly included in the Library chapter. This has now been removed.
