Pembrokeshire's library service is continuing to improve.

A recent 2010/11 Assessment by the Welsh Government has found that the service run by Pembrokeshire County Council has achieved 11 of the 14 Welsh Public Library standards.

This is an improvement on the nine standards achieved in 2009/10 and the six achieved in 2008/09.

The Welsh local authority average for standards achieved is nine.

"I welcome this report as it shows that our library service is continuing to improve," said Clr. Rob Lewis, cabinet member for cultural services.

"We have invested a great deal in improving our library buildings and our staff have worked hard to ensure that our loyal library customers have the best possible service.

"This report shows that we are on the right track and I anticipate that this time next year we will have improved even further."

The annual report by the Welsh Government into library services is carried out Government officials, heads of library services and external experts.
