Seattle Public Library would like to get citizen input on Library services.

Broadview Library

 Here’s your chance to give some feedback  on services at the Broadview Branch. Make sure when you go on line to use the word Broadview in your comments.

If citizens cannot attend the meetings, they can offer their comments on line at: http://www.spl.org/about-the-library/libraries-for-all/lfa-plan/share-your-thoughts

In January, the Library will be holding 3 important meetings to get citizen input on Library service priorities in four key areas: library hours, books and materials, computers and online resources, and building maintenance. There will also be a discussion of strategies to stabilize Library funding. I am writing to invite your members to attend and ask your assistance in sharing this information with your community.

Share your thoughts with the Library

Do you check out books or DVDs from the Library? Do you come to the Library for story time, to use a free computer or listen to an author? Or do you come for homework help for students, Internet access, research, community events, job search activities, or online learning? The Seattle Public Library needs to hear from you! The Library wants your input on priorities for improvement in four essential areas:  hours, books and materials, computers and online services, and maintenance. Strategies for stabilizing Library funding will also be discussed. Please join us for these important community meetings.
