OCLC Webinar: What you can do for your rural community

OCLC’s WebJunction offers a number of webinar recordings available for free (once you create a free WebJunction account). One webinar in a recent OCLC promo caught our eye.

Engaged Planning: Ask What You Can Do For Your Rural Community

Your community needs the library, and planning for the future of your library begins with understanding the community and their aspirations. Once you understand what your rural community wants and needs, you can assess how the library can help them. In this webinar, understand the important steps of this engaged planning process, including internal assessment, data collection and analysis, trustee involvement, and community conversations. Learn what it means for your library to “turn outward” to secure its place at the heart of your community.
