Activity with children and young people

The emphasis on partnership working and holistic service delivery in Every Child Matters and Youth Matters means that there is a major opportunity for museums, libraries and archives to become involved in developing integrated service provision for one of their major constituencies: children and young people. 

This is an opportunity that needs to be grasped by museums, libraries and archives. Articulating (and improving) the evidence base regarding museums, libraries and archives’ activities for children and young people is a key part of realising this opportunity.

This study carried out in 2006 gives clear recommendations for improving the evidence base and improving engagement with local and regional partners and then sets out the offer which museums, libraries and archives have for children and young people.
