New Library?

April 25, 2012 | 2 comments

Help the Library and Museum plan their future

The New London Public Library and New London Public Museum are hosting two focus groups on May 2 and May 10, everyone is invited. The UW-Extension office in Waupaca developed the focus groups for the library and museum to get public input on the future of the two organizations. Sign up today to get your voice heard. The focus groups will meet at the library on Wednesday May 2 at 1:00 PM and on Thursday May 10 at 7:00 PM. The meetings will take about one hour. Contact the library at 982-8519 or ahunt@mail.owls.lib.wi.us to sign up today!


The purpose of the focus groups is to get a better understanding of the community needs that the library and museum are able to address. We want to know how the organizations can best address our community’s needs and how we can create an environment of discovery for our community now and well into the future. All ideas are on the table including building a new, more functional library and allowing the museum to take over the current historic building. But we can’t move forward until we know what our community wants. Please plan on attending one of the focus groups and help these vital community organizations better serve you and future generations. Get your voice heard!

The New London Public Library is committed to providing materials, services and programs to meet the educational and recreational needs of the community. The purpose of the New London Public Museum is to preserve and promote our community’s natural, native and historical culture for the benefit of the public.

  1. With the digital age it has been said that libraries are going to be a thing of the past.

  2. No matter how "digital" we are, libraies will never become a thing of the past. If you are not a user of a library, you're not aware of how many services they provide.
