November 4, 2013 1535

The Social Welfare Portal at the British Library will celebrate its first birthday on December 12th, and we would like you to tell us what you think of the service by completing a short survey. Feedback will be used to help us develop and hopefully improve the Portal. Please visit our home page between November 18th and December 20th 2013 to access the form. Names of people who complete the survey will be entered in a prize draw for a Kindle Fire HD.
