Library Needs Assessment & Library Plan 2020
What POWERFUL conversation we have had this past week!!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! to all 338 Librarians who have reviewed the draft Library Plan 2020 and answered the Library Needs Assessment..... but...... we sure are missing a lot of voices--- about 1,000 to be exact. For this reason, I am going to leave the Library Needs Assessment open until tomorrow - September 8th at 10 pm. So, if you missed your first opportunity-- hopefully things are more manageable this week and you will use this second chance. If you feel uncomfortable commenting on the draft, feel free to just complete the other questions on the needs analysis and skip the 2020 questions. We have been asked for funding priorities to present to the legislature-- with only 338 voices...........?
