Histoire administrative

Explore York Libraries and Archives Mutual Ltd was founded on 1 May 2014, when the Libraries and Archives Service of City of York Council spun-out as an independent entity. The organisation is an industrial and provident mutual, with staff and community members and is viewed as charitable by HMRC for tax purposes.

Explore runs the libraries across the City of York area on behalf of the council, as well as the Archives and Local History service, based at York Explore in the city centre. The service also runs a number of Reading Cafes in York and a mobile library service.

Explore was initially awarded a five year contract from City of York Council. In March 2019, it was awarded a further 15 year contract, ensuring that the company would provide services until 2034.
