A group of dedicated librarians and information professionals have set up Voices for the Library, a campaigning website to share positive stories from public libraries and librarians, provide factual information about library usage in the UK and draw together the fragmented responses to the many attacks on UK public library services. This campaign is an opportunity for people to discuss why libraries and librarians are so important, and why it is vital that they are run well and serve their communities effectively. The campaign was set up in August 2010 with the following aims:
1. Share positive stories from public libraries and librarians
2. Provide factual information about library usage in the UK
3. Provide spokespeople for the media with a range of professional expertise
