Summary of Request

The Library would like to publish the Mendocino County Library 2023-2024 Annual Report to share the accomplishments and the status of the County Library with the public. The report includes a section on each library branch and the Bookmobile with news about library outreach, information technology, grants, statistics, finances, and more. The Report is made available online and can be printed upon request. This year’s Library Annual Report continues the tradition started in 2019 to provide accountability and information to the public who voted in good faith to support the communities’ libraries and outreach efforts.

 

Additionally, the Library Advisory Board is submitting their Annual Report which includes details on all the branches’ shared activities as well as programs that are unique to each branch. Information on the activities of the Friends of the Library groups that exist in support of the branches are included. The Library Advisory Board is also including two requests for the Board of Supervisors.

 

Our Mendocino County Library Annual Reports and the Library Advisory Board’s Annual Report continue the tradition of providing accountability and information to the public and to the Board of Supervisors and helps to further the Board of Supervisors’ Strategic Plan goal of an “Effective County Government.”
