COMMUNITY FEEDBACK WEEK BEGINS NOVEMBER 16!
RCS Community Library will spend the week of
November 16 listening to community feedback about the quality of the
Library's services. The results will guide the Library's planning
over the next few years. We also hope to set a pattern for ongoing
communication between community members and the Library, and to increase
awareness of Library resources and activities.
The Library's Trustees, using long lists
of district residents, randomly invited people to eight different
feedback sessions (aka focus groups), some organized by age group
and some organized by hamlet.
Participation is a one-time-only commitment that will help the
Library to serve you better. If you received an invitation, please
come! Your Trustee contact person can answer your questions and is
waiting to hear from you!
