Attached version approved by unanimous vote. 5:38 p.m. PUBLIC COMMENT None. 5:39 p.m. BUSINESS/ACTION 2. Strategic Planning Training with Heidi Fendrick from the State Library. Fendrick reported on her visit to San Juan County and complimented the library system. She shared a template for a three-year strategic planning process that has been used successfully by other rural libraries. The template included four major steps: 1) creating a strategic planning committee, 2) gathering community input through surveys and stakeholder focus groups, 3) analyzing and synthesizing data to create a strategic plan, and 4) implementing a plan and sharing it with the community. Fendrick said the process could be adjusted for the San Juan County Library Board's needs, and the template was only a suggestion. The library director and board discussed how to adapt the plan to fit it with the current strategic plan, and the potential challenges with getting community involvement and turnout.
