Engaging the Community

The Library Network (TLN) – Jim Pletz, Director Initiating a new community focus was a top goal for The Library Network. Monies were allocated to contract the services of a Community Engagement Specialist. The goal was simple – is there fertile ground to cultivate TLN and member outreach efforts to cooperative members? What can a cooperative undertake that members are unable to undertake? Dale Jaslove fit our needs in a manner that was unrivaled. After five months working the varied communities that are served by TLN libraries, the following new programs and engagements are underway: • Alzheimer’s Association – Sessions for family members and caregivers, and another for community membes • Center Stage - A return engagement of top-rated programs • Jazz in the D - A multimedia program on jazz in 1920’s Detroit • Michigan Opera Theater - A performance and critical study of a forthcoming show • Sponsorships: Reduced admission tickets for The Detroit Red Wings, Little Caesar’s Arena Tours, Fox Theater with presentation of a library cardType your paragraph here.
