Library system survey extended

Would you like to see the Monmouth County Library System sponsor more author talks or children’s story times? Tell the library about it.

The library system will extend its community survey on programming for at least two more months, in order to reach as many Monmouth County residents as possible, according to Renee B. Swartz, Monmouth County Library Commission chairwoman.

The county-wide survey of library patrons and residents began Feb. 1. The 12- question survey asks patrons how often they use the library, and what type of events and programming they would like to see there.

The survey is available online on the library’s Internet website at www.monmouthcountylib. org. In addition, visitors to all county library branches will be able to complete the survey using one of the library’s computers, or complete a paper copy if they prefer.

Results of the survey will help the library commission plan future events and programs to better meet the needs and interests of the residents of Monmouth County, according to Library Director Ken Sheinbaum.
