Following extensive community consultation last year, the strategy outlines Campaspe Shire Council’s vision for the future of library services in the region, aiming to enhance community engagement, improve access to resources, and support lifelong learning.
Campaspe Shire Mayor Daniel Mackrell encouraged everyone to review the draft strategy and provide input.
‘’This is the first time we have renewed the strategy for the library for several years, so the renewed draft strategy marks a significant step in our commitment to fostering a vibrant, informed, and connected Campaspe community,’’ he said.
‘’Our libraries have evolved to meet residents’ changing needs, embracing new technologies and expanding services.’’
The draft strategy sets out strategic goals and priority actions summed up in four words – read, belong, access, and grow – aiming to increase community literacy, foster connections, improve access to resources, and grow the libraries’ impact by engaging with new audiences of all ages and abilities.
You can read the draft strategy online or in person at any of the library depots and branches.
