2023-2025 Strategic Plan
The Barberton Public Library began a new strategic planning process in January 2022 to prepare for the future of the Library. We completed the last strategic plan in 2015, implementing aspects of a plan created in 2017. The Library is committed to serving the Barberton community and involving our community in the strategic planning process through a Focus Group and Community Survey.
The goal of the current strategic plan is to better serve the community with relevant and innovative outreach initiatives, modern accessible spaces, and staff excellence. The strategic plan is organized around three strategic goals, each supported by strategic objectives and action items. Our staff use this plan as a guide for decision making and effective resource allocation.
Above all, the strategic plan reinforces Barberton Public Library’s commitment to its values, vision, and mission. This plan positions the Library as an essential and ever-evolving asset, enhancing the chapters of the lives of Barberton community members.
