Upper Moreland Library to Hold Open House

The (UMFPL) is looking for some input.

In its continuous effort toward improving library services, UMFPL will host an Open House, May 12, featuring a community forum.

The forum invites library stakeholders the opportunity to voice their opinions and join a discussion directly with decision makers of the library.

“The feedback gathered from tomorrow's community forum will aid in determining the Library's strategic plan for future services,” Katie Fitzpatrick, UMFPL Head of Technical Services, said in a correspondence. “This forum provides area residents with a wonderful opportunity to voice the desire for future services and an opinion of current services.”

Fitzpatrick encourages all area residents to participate, especially those who may not frequent the library.

The forum will feature specific times for particular library patrons:

• 10 - 10:30 a.m. – Parents of young children

• 11 - 11:30 a.m. – For seniors/retired residents

• 12 - 12:30 p.m. – For adults 30-40 years old

• 1 - 1:30 p.m. – For teenage students

“Overall, we are excited to get feedback from the community we serve and to learn what we can do in the future to ensure the Library is fulfilling the needs of current and potential patrons,” Fitzpatrick said.

In addition to the community forum, the library will provide surveys. Those who are unable to attend, however, can also complete the survey about library services, by visiting www.uppermorelandlibrary.org/about/survey.
