   The River Valley District Library will provide access to information, especially that
    information and current popular material which is of immediate relevance and interest to
    meeting the present and future needs of the community it serves. Prudent management
   and development of resources as well as cooperating with other libraries and other
   educational and government institutions are critical to accomplishing the library's mission.

   To serve the needs of the community in the broadest sense of the mission the following
   strategic priority areas have been defined:

   Program, service, facility and material development that meets the needs of the
   community and their involvement to increase knowledge and awareness of library
   services.    We plan to provide and improve on an environment that offers comfortable,
  safe accessibility with up-to-date technology. Fiscal resource development to expand
  library services, technologies, and facilities to better suit the needs of the district
   community.
   The above shall be maintained by an adequate staff of librarians and supportive
   personnel. Ongoing co-operation with other libraries and agencies will minimize
  unnecessary duplication and increase user satisfaction.
