  • Do you have a good understanding of all library services and programs offered in person and online? 
  • Do you know who your municipal leaders are? County legislators? State and federal representatives? 
  • Is it easy for a new resident in your service area to access library services? 

• • Have you adequately funded budget lines related to outreach and public relations?
