Branch Recommendations Children Outreach |
|
| Children Outreach: An additional recommendation made especially in cases where it is suggested that a branch be closed is to work with residents of the area to determine how it can ensure that young children have access to public library service. It is evident in nearly all of the public response to the plan that people place a high value on children's access to library service. The recommendations above suggest that between now and 2011 that the 19 branches of the library system be reduced by a at least 25% depending on funding, use and logistics of relocating services. As this is done, it will be even more important to make sure that strategies are in place to ensure that young children have access to library service. An effort should be to review strategies currently in place, options available with an eye toward strengthening access to this important segment of our population. | ||
