Community Survey 2022
We Hear You!
We asked for your input about the Library's materials, services, and programs in our yearly community survey distributed in August 2022 and thank everyone who responded.
Please see the results of the survey compiled here, including helpful tips to direct you to library resources you may not be aware of.
The Library will make every effort to address your concerns and suggestions in the year ahead to the best of our physical and financial ability.
All our good wishes for a happy and healthy New Year!
