Everyone will have easy access to new technologies and information. In brief, this project is an opportunity to improve all aspects of library service to the city, improve the appearance of the downtown, and strengthen the city's business district. A city-appointed Board of Trustees is charged with overseeing library services to the community. A professionally-trained Library Director administers the library on behalf of the trustees. Municipal appropriations cover the salaries of employees and provide for the purchase of books, supplies, materials, and other operating expenses.
Private donations supplement the library's operating budget.
The Brockton Library Foundation, Inc., is a nonprofit organization that has been created to raise public awareness and financial support for the services provided by the Brockton Public Library system. The Foundation is sponsoring this fundraising endeavor. You, your neighbors and friends will be needed to form volunteer teams throughout the area. These volunteers will select, from a list of names, the prospects they wish to visit. Nobody will be asked to see more than a small number of prospects.
