Strategic Plan 2006
Vision Statement — adopted June 2006
The Austin Public
Library is a stimulating learning environment that is used by many Austin and Mower County residents. It has interesting, current collections and resources, and up-to-date technology. It is fast, easy, and pleasant to use, and knowledgeable staff is available to help. Library programs promote reading and computer literacy.
Prioritized Roles — adopted June 2006
The Austin Public Library's roles, in order of importance, are: lifelong learning, information literacy with an emphasis on technology, and current topics and titles. These roles are met while maintaining the library's role as a “commons” and preserving its current environment.
