Abstract

With 133 nationalities and over 70 languages spoken among its 193,000 population the City of Fairfield in metropolitan Sydney is Australia's most multicultural and multilingual local government area. In 2004 its library commissioned a survey funded by a State Library of NSW grant to discover why older immigrants use the library less than others, and how their use could be increased. In an Australian, and possibly world first, the survey explored the behaviour of library users and nonusers in three language groups, Arabic/Assyrian, Spanish and Vietnamese. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
