  3. Metropolis Research Pty Ltd • Established in 1998, Metropolis Research specialises in providing quality research services to local and state government.  • Extensive experience in assisting local governments to understand the characteristics, behaviours, views and expectations of their communities. • Currently conducting surveys for the Cities of Darebin, Greater Geelong, Maribyrnong, Melbourne, Melton, Moreland, Port Phillip, Whittlesea and Moonee Valley.

  4. Some questions to answer • What is the profile of the people who use the library and is it different to the profile of people who do not use the library? • Will the population change over time? • What are the reasons why people use the library service and why others don’t? • How important is the library service to the community and how satisfied are they with the service being provided? • What changes could be made to the library service to encourage more people to use it?

  5. Why you need to know your community • Demand is likely to differ across different customers’ groups • Identifying customers’ profiles is useful to attract new customers • Reasons that trigger customers’ behaviours can be modified appropriately to increase satisfaction • Identifying customers’ level of satisfaction early on can prevent unexpected drops in visit frequencies • Improvements that need to be done should be guided by customers’ expectations

  6. Census of Population & Housing
