NJLA Economic Recovery Task Force Survey
The Economic Recovery Task Force was created by the NJLA Public Policy committee to provide a strategy to leverage libraries' role in the community to better help New Jersey communities during our economic recovery.
The next step in this process is to learn what services/resources New Jersey libraries are currently offering that support economic recovery as well as to better understand what each library feels about the support they could be or already do provide via a brief analysis of the successes and shortcomings of these efforts.
