From focus groups to district-wide surveys, the library actively sought input from the public, library staff and library stakeholders as to current and future priorities for PCCLD. Without the community’s support, the library would find itself hard- pressed to continue providing quality resources, spaces and services in a fast-changing, dynamic world. From this process emerged six themes which will become the library’s strategic focus for the future. • Create young readers. Winners and runners-up of the Pueblo Girl Essay Contest celebrated in style with a high tea party at Rawlings Library in February. A record 237 entries were submitted for the contest this year. • Strengthen community partnerships. • Bridge the digital divide. • Data-driven planning. • Serve the whole family at all stages of life. • Lifeflong learning begins with staff. The library will work within these areas with the full understanding of its mission to encourage the joy of reading, support lifelong learning and present access to information from around the world. For the full plan, please see: http://www.pueblolibrary.org/sites/default/files/2015_ A knit/crochet/needlework group calling themselves the "Yarnies" take advantage of the Idea strategicplan.pdf Factory in the Rawlings Library on the 2nd floor in March.
