Help your local Goodwin Library!

Happy summer, everyone!

The following was sent to me by a Goodwin library trustee:

The Hadley Goodwin Memorial Library needs you!  As part of our long-range planning process, the Goodwin Library is conducting a community survey and we are hoping you will take 5 minutes to complete it now. All respondents who provide contact information will be eligible for one of 5 prizes of a $25 gift card to Barnes and Noble. Regardless of whether you provide your contact information or not, all responses will be kept strictly confidential and your individual responses will never be linked to your name. We will be reporting the results of the survey back to the community this fall. To take the survey please go to: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Goodwin2013

We are also holding a focus group for parents of young children on July 18th 4-5 at the library.  Childcare will be provided.  Please come join us and share your thoughts in person!  (flyer attached)

Additionally, the library has an AMAZING summer program full of activities for kids of all ages.  Pop in and check it out!
