All library staff (from any type of library and in any role) are invited to join a focus group to help OLIS gather information to prepare its new strategic plan for statewide library services. This purpose of this focus group is to obtain a better understanding of the future service needs of RI's youth services departments and school libraries and to evaluate the importance and effectiveness of current OLIS services so that we may strategically plan how to best direct resources and funding over the next five years. Your participation will help OLIS assess what areas of library service we can provide that will be most impactful over the next five years.
