<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m passing this along as I know there has been interest in the Aspect Institute’s work previously:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">To help library and community leaders use the report, <a href="http://www.libraryvision.org/the_report" target="_blank"><i>Rising to the Challenge: Re-Envisioning Public Libraries</i></a>, the Aspen Institute created
the <i>Action Guide for Re-Envisioning Your Public Library, version 2.0</i> a set of resources for convening a community dialogue and helping communities take action to re-envision their own public library.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">The Action Guide, Version 2.0. is the newest version of the Action Guide. The content has been abridged and reorganized into three main modules—a Learning Pathway, Leading Pathway and Implementing Pathway—to enable
library and community professionals to commit to focusing on a specific set of objectives—one pathway at a time. It contains activities and worksheets for evaluating the current level of activity and support for the library, determining goals and action steps,
and planning and convening a community dialogue.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To download the guide, please go <a href="http://www.libraryvision.org/download_action_guide">
here</a>. The full <a href="https://www.aspeninstitute.org/news/press-release/aspen-institute-releases-version-2-0-action-guide-re-envisioning-public-library/">
