Welcome to the Garfield County Public Library District! It is my privilege and pleasure to serve as Executive Director.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Over the past year, our library board and staff have been working on developing a strategic plan. It began with a series of staff interviews with community leaders. We spoke to (among others) business owners, non-profit owners, educators, faith-based leaders, civic organizations, health care providers, and both elected and appointed government officials. Then we tried to boil it down to seven recurrent themes, the issues that local leaders kept identifying. This mindmap (start at the one o\u2019clock position and read clockwise for themes, and top to bottom for subcategories) provides a graphic representation of our findings in order of significance. (The more often people mentioned it, the higher we ranked it.)<\/span><\/p>

My motto: it is not the job of the community to make a great library; it is the job of the library to make a great community. So our second step was to try to craft a strategic plan that brings the social asset of the library (see this article on <\/span>social capital<\/span><\/a>) to bear on our shared concerns.<\/span><\/p>

While we\u2019re still fleshing out all the objectives and subtasks, I thought the community might be interested in our key areas of emphasis.<\/span><\/p>
