UPDATED 10/26: Read the results of our recent Library User Satisfaction Survey on sites, staff and technology. Your opinions will be discussed at the upcoming "invent the future of the Library" sessions described below. Thanks to all who took that initial survey and if you haven't already, please complete our on-going survey on services and programming.
This month and next, Arlington Public Library will host a series of public gatherings to create?with its customers?a shared vision of the future for the Library.
The goal of these gatherings is to help answer questions like: Where are we going as a library? Where do we need to go? And what will it take to get there?
