FROM THE DIRECTOR IN THIS ISSUE What is a 9 library? Set Up a Family Fun Night What is a library? A building full of books? A community gathering place? 10 Familiar faces? Helpful, friendly staff? YES— all this and so much more! We love to talk about how libraries are always changing to meet the needs of the community, and the past year has given us the opportunity to show it. When the pandemic hit, our world changed overnight. Things we just Get Reading took for granted were gone and we were left to figure out how to navigate Suggestions a “new normal” in a world that didn’t quite make sense anymore. We wondered how to best serve our community during these unusual times. While it has been a challenge, it has also been an opportunity for us to grow. To think outside of the box. To challenge ourselves to think beyond our four walls. We had to be flexible, find creative solutions, and pivot quickly. Thankfully, our library is staffed with very creative and imagi- native people, so we did just that. 13 As we re-opened our buildings last summer, we began alternative ways to offer library services. When you couldn’t come to us, we came to you— through Library-to-Go services, the digital library, and virtual programs! Our digital materials usage—eBooks, eMagazines, eAudiobooks—exploded. Find a Job Our bookmobiles visited at community stops. We were so grateful to be able to continue to connect with the community in new and exciting ways. I see the light at the end of the tunnel and am filled with hope for the future. We hope to begin in-person events in the coming months. As you walk back into the library and familiar surroundings, there are a lot of changes, 14 but one thing stays the same—everyone at Stark Library will be excited to see you!

is Underway! We have an exciting update to share with you—we officially kicked off our Re|imagine project in February! Construction is underway at North Branch and on target for a mid-summer re-opening. We can’t wait to see the results! What can I expect? We want your library to be a place you want to spend your day. In addition to some cosmetic upgrades such as fresh paint and new carpet, you can look forward to more charging options for your devices, flexible meeting spaces, and comfortable furniture. Of course, these are just a few of the exciting upgrades you can look forward to. If you want a sneak peek at what to expect, stop by our new Jackson Community Branch at North Park to see how we Re|imagined it for the 21st century. Jackson is home to technology and features we plan to roll out systemwide including user-friendly self-checks, dedicated children and teen areas, and study rooms—perfect for school, tutoring, and even small business meetings! What’s Next? East Canton is our next branch to undergo updates and is slated to begin on June 14. Madge Youtz Branch will follow on August 16. During Phase 2 of Re|imagine, in 2022, Perry, DeHoff Memorial, and Lake Community branches will undergo renovation. What do I do While my Branch is Closed? Each branch will take several months to complete (depending on the size and complexity), but don’t worry, we would never leave you hanging! Alternate services will be available while each branch is being upgraded—the Bookmobile will visit each location regularly. You can also access our Library-to-Go Services and our Online Library!
