Ararat Rural City mayor, Jo Armstrong said the purpose of the survey is to expand services and programming offered at the Ararat Library.
"Libraries are about so more than books - they foster learning, provide assistance with digital literacy, create social connections and are a meeting place for the local community," she said.
"The Ararat Library is a much-loved community asset for our community and visitors in town, promoting lifelong learning, connecting people via shared interests, and supporting access to information.
"The purpose of the survey is to better understand community use and deliver more inclusive, meaningful, and engaging programs that truly enrich the community.
