Subject: Re: NCC report - Playlist for public servicesI am delighted to see Chris Batt's response to this matter.He makes extremely valid points.What had occurred to me was that a visit to a library, and one to a museum is so entirely different. I suspect that on the whole library use and visits are a routine part of users lives, part of their lifestyle etc. Whereas for probably a majority of museum visitors it is both a less frequent occasion, and probably an event of some sort. e.g "take the kids" in the holidays., "see the Dinosaurs", a short term travelling exhibition,or while in London or any city., a special project etc, or in the vicinity. so the experience and how you rate it is likely to be different and for many the museum experience is less usual and more novel.I would hope a new approach is now made by NCC to produce fairer and more similar comparisons.f
