The Greene County Public Library (GCPL) is an Ohio County District Library established for the benefit of the citizens of Greene County pursuant to Ohio Revised Code § 3375.19. We are honored to provide library services to the residents of Greene County.

This Strategic Plan defines the key areas that GCPL will focus on between 2009 and 2012. It was developed from community input through a county-wide survey taken in 2008, the ideas from a community focus group, suggestions from individual patrons, and input from GCPL staff at all levels. GCPL’s planning approach was adapted from the Public Library Association Service Responses 2007 by Wayne Piper of the Ohio Library Council.
