Community Invited to Weigh in On Next Strategic Plan

  • October 02, 2025
  • By Baltimore County Public Library

Baltimore County Public Library is in the process of creating a new strategic plan for 2026 to 2031 and we need your help. We are looking to gather information from a variety of stakeholders, including community members who use our 19 branches and mobile services, and those who may not be aware of all the library has to offer.   

How to Help 

We invite you to join one of our community input sessions this October, where light refreshments will be provided. The schedule is as follows: 

  • Wednesday, October 15, 6:30 p.m.—Cockeysville Branch
  • Thursday, October 16, 6:30 p.m.—North Point Branch
  • Monday, October 20, 6:30 p.m.—Randallstown Branch 

This community conversation will guide the development of our new strategic plan and ensure the library continues to meet the needs of our community. Those who attend will be asked the opportunities and challenges our neighbors face, like “how relevant is Baltimore County Public Library in supporting the communities' needs and interests?” and “what are the areas or opportunities where you’d like to see the community explore, learn, create and connect?” The library’s future priorities for programs and services will be directly informed by the input we receive from these meetings. 

Weigh In Online

If you are unable to attend one of the community meetings, you can still weigh in with our online survey. Share your thoughts on the questions and rate thoughts that are shared by others by the deadline on Friday, October 31.
