Quick Reminder:  If you are visiting our neighboring libraries during our hiatus from business as usual and particularly like (or dislike for that matter), some aspect of that library's service or layout, please let us know.  The staff and I are working on plans for the library when we re-open and this is the ideal time for input.  We also welcome input about our former layout.  What worked?  What would you change? 

Remember that we recently completed a couple of years of strategic planning, with extensive input from the community (focus groups, surveys and interviews).  That information is proving to be very useful as we plan our next phase. 

We greatly appreciate your input.  You can find the full plan in the "About Us" pull down menu on our website.
