2019-2024 Strategic Plan
On January 7, 2019, we have the SWOT Analysis scheduled for the whole board and supervisors from 4:00 – 6:00pm.  

Prior to this meeting, trustees will be asked to carefully review some documents including notes from the listening sessions & surveys, Rising to the Challenge: Re-Envisioning Public Libraries from The Aspen Institute publication and slides, SOAR (strengths, opportunities, aspirations and results), and S.M.A.R.T objectives.  Halverson will email them. It was felt that the SOAR Analysis may work better for the library.  This will be the most important meeting of the strategic planning process.

Turner left the meeting at 3:05pm.

Halverson will get the agenda for January 7 to Lenz by December 28.

Adjournment
Motion made by Engelbert, seconded by Halverson, to adjourn.  Meeting adjourned at 3:17pm  

Respectfully submitted,
Kathy Dreyer, recording secretary
