Whether it’s your first day as a Colorado library director or it’s your seven-hundredth day, there’s always a lot to know. Wouldn’t it be great to have an uncomplicated guide? Well, here it is! Introducing the New Director’s Guide for Public Libraries from your Colleagues on Call at CLiC.
- First time working with a board? This guide covers it.
- Confused about what to do at the beginning of the year vs. the end of the year? We offer an annual planning calendar.
- Wondering what statistics to keep and for whom? “Your Library by the Numbers” section has got you covered.
- Do you have a Friends group or a Library Foundation? Or is it both? Should I have one or the other? It’s there—in the guide.
The guide provides succinct foundational information with links to find out more when you are ready. No need to page through non-relevant google results or let your questions go unanswered. This guide is written for library directors who are working in the field and need answers now (or maybe yesterday).
The CLiC Colleague on Call team created this guide expressly for new library directors in rural communities just like yours. Not a new Director? You never know what you might find to inspire and refresh.
A friendly heads up that the CLiC office will be closed Friday, July 3 in observance of Independence Day.
