[Publib] Transforming Libraries Initiative

[Beverly Michaels]

I would imagine that Leslie knows about this, since Mt Laurel is only about 90 minutes from Princeton, but a very successful transformation is described at

(Forwarded on behalf of ALA President-elect Leslie Burger)

I would like to enlist your help for a very exciting and interactive project
that will help transform libraries! 

Libraries Transform Communities is the theme I have chosen for my
presidential initiative. We know that when libraries are transformed either
by new service programs, renovations, or new buildings that the communities
they serve are in turn transformed. Part of the initiative is to create a
Transformation Tool Kit, which will have tips and ideas for how to transform
your library, and stories from libraries that have been transformed. 

This is where I need your help, send in your transformation stories and
photographs. Explain briefly how your library been changed? How have your
library users and community been transformed? The stories and photographs
that you submit will be featured on my website,
http://lb.princetonlibrary.org. 

Send all materials to Romina Gutierrez at rgutierrez at princetonlibrary.org as
soon as possible. 

I hope you share your transformation stories with me and with the library
community! 

Thank you in advance for your participation. 

Leslie Burger
ALA President-Elect
