Report on evening opening at Riverside Library

Introduction. The aim of this report is to assess whether Riverside Library should extend its opening hours on weekday evenings. It is based on a survey of users carried out between 3 and 17 March and on a review of staffing records for the previous year.

Findings. In total, 214 users completed the survey. Roughly one in three respondents said that they were unable to visit the library before five o'clock because of work or study commitments, and 62 per cent were in favour of later closing. Demand appears to be strongest on Tuesdays and Thursdays, when many students prepare for evening classes. By contrast, only a small minority expressed interest in Sunday opening.

It was also found that the study area is almost full between four and six o'clock, which suggests that existing space is already under pressure. However, it should be noted that staff costs would rise if the building remained open until nine. According to the figures supplied by the finance office, an additional evening would cost approximately £1,150 per month.

Conclusions. There is clear evidence of unmet demand, particularly among people who work during the day. Nevertheless, a permanent change would carry financial risk, and the data on weekend use is too limited to draw reliable conclusions.

Recommendations. It is recommended that the library introduce late opening on Tuesdays and Thursdays on a six-month trial basis. Attendance should be monitored each month, and the results reviewed before any permanent decision is made. Provided that funding can be secured from the community budget, the trial could begin in September.

解答例

Report on early-morning gym opening

Introduction. The purpose of this report is to consider whether the college gym should open at seven o'clock on weekdays. It is based on a survey of 120 students and on estimates supplied by the finance office.

Findings. Forty-five per cent of respondents said that they would like the gym to open at seven o'clock, and many added that they currently travel to a private gym because of the limited hours here. Although this falls short of a majority, it represents a substantial group of potential users, and the demand appears to be genuine.

Extra staffing would cost approximately £900 per month. However, no data is yet available on how usage might change during the winter months, when dark, cold mornings may well discourage early exercise. It should therefore be noted that the current figures may overstate long-term interest.

Conclusions. There is reasonable evidence of demand, but it is not yet strong enough to justify a permanent commitment, particularly as winter attendance is unknown.

Recommendations. It is recommended that the gym open early on three weekdays for one term, and that attendance be recorded daily so that staffing can be adjusted if demand changes. Students should also be told about the trial through the college website and notice boards. Provided that the trial attracts at least thirty users per session, the arrangement could then be extended.
