Darien Library

Darien Library, seen from the corner of Hecker Avenue and the Post Road

At this presentation, Library staff members will discuss the 2017-2020 Strategic Plan, and also share condensed versions of the feedback we heard from the community over the course of the past six months, followed by a Q&A.

After six months of community meetings and staff workshops, the Darien Library has unveiled its new Strategic Plan. In a change from previous strategic plans, we began our planning process with an extensive series of community meetings. Staff members met with representatives from several dozen groups like the League of Women Voters, Darien Men’s Association, Post 53, and the YWCA, as well as local churches, Town boards, and internal advisory boards.

Rather than asking about the Library, though, meetings asked participants to answer questions like: What do you think Darien will be like in ten years? What are your hopes for Darien? What are your concerns?

Patrons were also given the chance to submit feedback on the same questions anonymously through the Library website.

Refreshments will be served.
