  • Are the goals and objectives of the plan designed to meet the needs expressed by the community? 
  • Are budget decisions based on goals expressed in the board-approved long-range plan? 

• • Does the library have an operational plan to address gaps in resources necessary to be successful in achieving the goals set in the long-range plan?
