Plan of Service
Morinville Community Library Plan of Service 2020-2024
The province of Alberta's Libraries Regulation requires boards to have a current plan of service, including a mission statement, goals and objectives, based on a community needs assessment. Our plan of service is created by the Morinville Library Board and sets our priorities for 5 years. Download the Plan of Service or view the highlights below.
