Witherle Memorial Library is inviting the community to participate in a survey as part of a comprehensive planning process led by the Library’s Board of Trustees and Strategic Planning Committee. Community members are encouraged to share their perspectives on current services, programming, digital resources, partnerships, facility needs, and future priorities. At the end of the survey, you will have the option to remain anonymous or provide your email to be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate to the Auxford Market or Compass Rose Books.
