Consortium Strategic Plan

We urge you to take the survey for the Evergreen Indiana Strategic Plan so that we may successfully plan our next steps for the consortium. Without your input, we will not have a guide to move us forward. We want to hear from everyone – all library staff, all board members, all admins, and all committee members. If you have questions about which survey you should take, please contact Courtney.
