Press ReleaseICPL strategic plan finalized


The Iowa City Public Library will work to CONNECT, ENGAGE, and ENRICH users under the priorities of a new strategic plan.

The plan, which covers the Fiscal Years 2016 through 2021, is the result of months of data gathering, analysis, and community conversations. It was approved by the Library Board of Trustees in September.

“Strategic planning is something we do every five years to determine the needs of our community and what the Library can do to meet them,” Library Director Susan Craig says. “It’s about looking ahead. What does our community need? What does our community want?”

A PDF of the strategic plan can be viewed online at http://www.icpl.org/policies/ or picked up at the Library. The new plan begins on July 1, 2015.
