During the summer of 2025, the Library conducted a community survey where we found our respondents were generally very satisfied with the services offered by the Library; however, there are always areas in which we can continue to improve and grow. The Board and staff reviewed the information gathered and developed four goals to focus on from 2026 to 2028.
These goals are:
- Deliver responsive programs and resources that meet the diverse needs of the community
- Strengthen marketing, outreach, and partnerships to demonstrate the Library’s value
- Create welcoming, inspiring, and accessible library spaces
- Enhance internal workplace culture to foster staff growth and engagement
The Library fosters a desire to continue learning, and we have started 2026 off strong by implementing a programming survey to help our leaders learn how patrons discovered the program they attended and what other types of programs they’re interested in. In addition, we are examining the Library’s website to ensure it is accessible and easy to navigate. Finally, we heard from the community that they wanted more sustainable programs. I’m happy to announce that with funding from the Friends of the Library, we debuted our Seed Library!
