ATTACHMENT C 28 <br />DRAFT <br />Orange County Public Library Strategic Plan <br />2013 -2016 <br />"Libraries provide access to the world of technology through wireless connection, and public computers. <br />They also provide meeting places for adults and teenagers, in addition to providing useful programs in <br />maintaining the community's economic growth. Most important of all, libraries are often the first <br />contact a child has outside of his home with the outside world through "Story Time" and can (be) the <br />basis of that child's future education and success in the world" (Orange County resident, November 6, <br />2012) <br />"I am unsure how it will all work out with the online resources starting to rev up - I love the <br />downloadable books. However, I love having a place for my kids to go and rummage through books to <br />really get a feel for different kinds of literature and to be exposed to so many things that would not <br />happen online. I love that there are clubs that meet there and that there is a teen room and so many <br />events for kids, both young and older" (Orange County resident, November 11, 2012) <br />1IPage <br />ORANGE 1O f TY <br />
