Could you please send me the following information:
– The top 10 most borrowed books at your libraries in the each of the last five calendar years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 (to the latest available date).
I’m asking for one list for each year – in other words, the top 10 across all your libraries, not individual top 10s for each library.
We do not hold the information prior to 2023; the information has been compiled by Libraries Unlimited together with libraries for Torbay and not only for Devon.
We can confirm that in Devon the top 10 most borrowed books in 2023 are:
