York County Libraries (YCL) will continue the Community Conversations series at four library locations. Led by Robert Lambert, YCL president, the event will provide a forum for community members to share what they need from their libraries. In turn, Lambert will update residents about the projects and strategic initiatives that the library system is implementing to address community needs.
To fuel this year's Community Conversations dialogue, Lambert is seeking answers from attendees to the several questions: "What do you love about your library?" and "What would 100% success look like for your library?" and "What would it take to get your library there?" and "How can York County Libraries walk alongside you in your journey in life and learning?" A report summarizing what is learned will be shared with the public online at the end of the year. Information gleaned through past public discussions led by Lambert have influenced library strategic plans.
The 2019 Community Conversations are scheduled on several dates and times. Sessions will be held on Thursday, May 23, and Tuesday, Nov. 19, at Dover Area Community Library, 3700-3 Davidsburg Road, Dover; on Thursdays, June 6 and Nov. 21, Paul Smith Library of Southern York County, 80 Constitution Ave., Shrewsbury; on Tuesday, Sept. 24, at Guthrie Memorial Library, 2 Library Place, Hanover; and on Wednesday, Sept. 25, at Kaltreider-Benfer Library, 147 S. Charles St., Red Lion. All sessions will begin at 7 p.m.
The meetings are open to the public and free to attend. Questions may be directed to individual libraries or to YCL staff at 717-849-6969. For directions and more information, readers may visit http://www.yorklibraries.org.
