Dakota County Library is seeking public input as it sets priorities and direction for the future. The library is encouraging residents to take a brief survey to help inform how the library can serve the community better.
The survey is available online in English, Spanish and Somali through Friday, July 26, 2024. The library wants to hear from library users as well as non-users.
Responses will be kept anonymous and grouped into categories to help shape the library's new strategic plan. A summary of community input will be shared on the library website later this year, and the strategic plan will be published once complete in 2025.
The strategic planning process will include community engagement throughout summer 2024. The library will attend community events, host community conversations, conduct individual interviews and share the community survey widely to better understand the community's evolving needs.
