Questions to Keep in Mind:

How often do I connect with county or city officials?

Introduction by Tracy Cook

Local government officials are stakeholders in the success of your library. We'll use the term "stakeholder" frequently in this course. We invite you to start thinking about who your local government officials are and the individuals who may become active stakeholders.

Lead Consulting and Learning Librarian Tracy Cook provides an introduction to our topic in this short excerpt from a webinar held in April 2024.
