What’s new in the Trustee Handbook? What Makes a Plan?

Check out the Planning and Evaluation chapter to learn more about the components of a strong strategic plan document. The chapter explains the difference between a mission and vision statement; clarifies how to best use goals, objectives to structure activities for success; and helps position discussions about strategy before identifying the tactics that will bring your goals to life.

Trustee responsibilities are small in number but broad in scope. This monthly Bulletin feature is designed to point out sections that are new in the updated version of the Handbook for Library Trustees of New York State.
