WHAT DO *YOU* WANT AT THE WOODSTOCK PUBLIC LIBRARY?

The Woodstock Public Library wants to hear from you!

We’re beginning the process of envisioning what a 21st Century library service and facility should look like for the community of Woodstock. We’re starting by reaching out to you about what you want in a library and how to make the library as useful as possible to the residents, students, and businesses in Woodstock .

If you have a moment, please fill out our survey, available online. The survey will take 10-12 minutes to complete and is open until  July 19, 2017.

Bonus! Thank you for sharing your answers with us. If you'd like to be entered into a draw for a prize of an iPad Mini (first), Bluetooth Speaker (second), or a Chapters Gift Card (third), please share your e-mail address with us in the last question.  [Employees of Woodstock Public Library, its Board members and City of Woodstock employees are not eligible for the prizes.]
