Please cut and paste the url into the address line to read more about the study the Library of Virginia is doing and fill out the survey by doing the same to the link at the end of this message.
The Library of Virginia has contracted with Himmel & Wilson, Library Consultants, to conduct a study, “Inventing the Future of Public Library Service in Virginia.” Himmel & Wilson have been assisting public libraries, regional library systems, and state library agencies with their planning and evaluation needs for 17 years. They have conducted similar statewide studies of library service in several states.
The study will focus on the 91 Virginia public library systems and the factors that influence the future of their development. The results of this study will assist the Library of Virginia (LVA) in assuring that the Commonwealth’s public libraries are prepared to meet the challenges of the 21st century as valued community resources, responsive to the rapid changes in technology and society. More information on the study is available at
http://vpl.lib.va.us/hwstudy/default.htm
They have actually set up three URLs with an identical survey at each site. The difference is that the responses will go into separate databases so H&W will be able to separate the opinions of steering committee members from those of library directors and both of those categories from those held in the broader library community. Below is the URL for The GENERAL LIBRARY COMMUNITY:

Dear Fellow Gloucestonian:
We invite you to make a difference in Gloucester! Our Main Public
Library has outgrown its limited space and needs a new home. We now
have an opportunity to be a part of a new venture that will relocate the
library to a building with sufficient space to serve the current and
future needs of county residents.
Mr. Edwin Joseph is leading a drive to create a Main Street Center with
the purchase of the Gloucester Exchange Shopping Center. The property
will be renovated and redesigned as a community center. The Library is
programmed to fill the space formerly occupied by the IGA True Value grocery store. In this location, the Library will be the anchor for several other community service facilities planned for the center.
We ask you to come to a Town Meeting on September 23rd at 7:00 p.m. in the
T.C. Walker Elementary School auditorium to see the architect`s plans for the center
and to hear presentations about what is possible for the Library and the
Main Street Center.
At this time you may ask questions and provide suggestions as to the
uses for the Main Street Center. We would like you to have sufficient
information so that you can make a commitment to become involved in
revitalizing Gloucester’s community resources. This commitment,
whether in the form of vocal support or financial contribution, is
necessary to achieve our goal of a new home for the library and a Main
Street Center containing community resources long dreamed of by
Gloucester residents.
If you have questions that need answers before the September 23rd
meeting, please call Nancy Dwoyer, the Director of the Gloucester
Library, at 804-693-2998..

Greetings from the Library,
I hope you have had a chance to use www.finditva.com. Call the library if you have had any problems getting into the databases. Also, don`t forget you can get into Ancestery Plus at the library only. There are many sites there for people doing genealogical work.
Next time you are in the library, why don`t you pick up a copy of Book Page? It is a great way to find out about new books that will be out soon.
Our web page has new items on it several times a month. You can access it by going to http://www.gloucesterva.info/lib/home.html.
As the second law of library science by Ranganathan says, "May every reader find his book".
