Brampton Public Library: Overview Location: Brampton Public Library CEO: Cathy Matyas What functions does the Brampton Public Library serve? o Brampton Library enriches the lives of Brampton residents by promoting literacy, and by providing access to recreational materials and information in a welcoming environment that fosters connections with others and with the community. Goals and Objectives Our Goals The Library has identified three key goals in its current Strategic Plan, which covers 2009 to 2012. These are: 1. To build on a strong base The Library must maintain its strong operational base, as it changes and grows to meet the needs of an expanding and diverse community. The Library is committed to being an effective and efficient organization that uses best practices and new technologies to ensure that the necessary infrastructure and organizational capacity are in place to support its growth. 2. To increase access to library service, and close the gap in membership and use The Library is expanding, with two new facilities currently under construction in partnership with the city. This increased access to library service is a significant step forward in helping meet the challenge of meeting the information and recreation needs of our growing community, and ensuring that all citizens in Brampton have convenient access to library service. 4
Brampton Public Library: Overview 3. Become a more inclusive library One of the underlying values of public libraries is inclusion. Being an inclusive library is about making sure the public library is welcoming and accessible to everyone. It is also about providing library services that recognize and respect the diversity of the community that is serves. Brampton is a rapidly growing and increasingly diverse municipality, with more than 175 distinct ethnic backgrounds and 70 different languages represented locally. Library customers vary considerably in their information needs, reading interests, and their use of new technologies. While our Library cannot be all things to all people, it must strive to reflect the community and provide a place where people from all walks of life and all backgrounds feel welcome and can connect. It must ensure that no one in our community is left behind, which is one of the cornerstones of public library service. 5
