Dear all
I have been trying to identify the amount our Trust invests in
providing a Library Service for it's staff, I have added together the
service costs, salary costs (plus on costs) and the running costs for
the Library and divided that figure by our potential user group. This
gives me a figure of £141 expenditure per member of staff for this
financial year.
Has anyone done anything similar?
I would be interested to know what formula you used for calculating
your figure and I would be particularly interested to know how our
outcome compares to other Trusts or other Cancer Institutes.
Also, does anybody know if there are any National Guidelines for
Hospital expenditure on Library Services.
Thank you
Melanie
