VISION AND MISSION STATEMENTS
Vision Statement
Our patrons are inspired about the Hamilton-Wenham Public Library
because they know that it is a dynamic and welcoming destination, and
a portal to a commonwealth of information, creative programs,
leading-edge technology, and materials to satisfy every curiosity.
We believe all
questions and requests are important and we strive for excellence in
the quality of answers we offer. We listen to our patrons, surprise
them with superior service, and embrace change when it will improve
our library.
We develop community
partnerships that minimize duplication of efforts and strengthen our
library as a valuable resource to every member of our two towns.
We promote the joy of
reading and the value of lifelong learning to all.
Mission Statement
The Hamilton-Wenham Public Library is a publicly-funded institution
dedicated to the common good by serving the informational,
educational, cultural, and recreational needs of the community and
encouraging its patrons in the lifelong pursuit of learning and
personal growth. The library will be responsive to the needs of its
diverse users, advocate and support the use of appropriate technology,
build an excellent collection, commit itself to the highest ideals of
library service and the principles of intellectual freedom, and
provide a welcoming meeting place for the community.
