Lincolnwood Library -- Strategic Plan -- Important Dates

Important Dates

  • Community Stakeholders Focus Group, Wednesday July 18th 7:00PM

  • Stakeholders will identify community needs that the Library could potentially address and provide insight on why residents do not visit the Library. This phase will consist of a discussion session with 10-12 community stakeholders. Typically, respondents are leaders in municipal government, education, community organizations, social service agencies, religious organizations, park districts, senior centers and other community and neighborhood groups as appropriate. The Library will select and invite community leaders who can knowledgeably discuss the needs of the community and how the Library might help address these needs. The session will span 90 to 120 minutes.
