Thomas Crane Public Library Strategic Planning

As part of the Strategic Planning process, the Thomas Crane Public Library is seeking community input

What is a Strategic Plan?

The Strategic Plan articulates overall service priorities & specific goals, and will serve as the library’s organizational compass for the next 5 years, guiding the development of annual action plans and helping to provide exceptional services. Strategic planning makes it possible for the library to make a real difference in the everyday lives of Quincy residents.  View The Library’s previous Strategic Plan for 2018 – 2022 here.

Listening Sessions

The Thomas Crane Public Library will host two public listening sessions at each library branch to engage with the community and hear residents’ thoughts. Please join us at any of our listening sessions.

There is also an online community survey to further share your thoughts! Print copies of the survey are available at all Quincy Library locations. The survey closes on April 21.

Translations of the survey (Simplified Chinese 中文, Traditional Chinese 中文 (繁体字), Portuguese Português, Vietnamese Tiếng Việt, and Spanish Español) are available in both online and print form!
