What Thriving Libraries Do Right
Check out the notes from Marylaine Block's latest presentation, titled What Thriving Libraries Do Right: Help Their Communities Achieve Their Aspirations. She says that public libraries need to address the issues the public cares most about -- public safety/crime, employment, housing, and education -- and they need to help the community articulate its values and tell its story, promote citizenship, and be a connector. Lotsa links.Labels: community, how-to, librarianship, library, local, marylaine, public library
