I've only scanned the report and will in time go through it with a fine toothed comb, but two quick points;
Although they claim to have collaborated with a large number of "public library employees and stakeholders" when you actually look at the list of participants at the end of the report they are all Managers, Directors, CEO's etc., so hardly representative of the whole workforce and service.
The other thing is, and I could be wrong, that they refrain from using the word 'entrepreneurial', which is refreshing.

You might like to see also Designing Libraries' coverage of the report, following Rachel's original posting, at http://www.designinglibraries.org.uk/index.asp?PageID=388. We are clearly of a mind with Helen.
