Supplementary notes

* Visitors as at March 31 annually.
The source indicates: "Onsite visitors were lower in 2012/13 mainly due to the impact of an entry charge for two exhibitions and the adverse affect of the Olympics and Paralympics on our summer attendance figures. There were a high number of onsite visitors in 2010/11 due to the huge success of the Magnificent Maps and Evolving English exhibitions. Visitors to the British Library's virtual public access facilities have been boosted by the improving performance of the Online Gallery in 2013/14."
