DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Annually, as a State Aid grant-receiving public library, we are required to submit documents by December 1st, as specified by the State Library of Florida. One required document is an annual plan of service, which has been approved by the library's Governing Body.
Attached is the proposed Marion County Public Library System Annual Plan of Service, 2026-27. The proposed annual plan of service is adapted from the approved Marion County Public Library System Operational Plan of Service, 2025-2030.
The vision, mission, three goals, and objectives remain the same in this annual plan as they appear in the operational plan. The activities included are what may reasonably be initiated, continued, or accomplished in the upcoming fiscal year based on already approved resources via the annual budgeting process. Activities associated with the Annual Plan of Service may reflect continuation of a particular aspect of service, investigation into the feasibility of a service, or improved efficiency.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; the revenue from the State Aid to Libraries grant for Marion County for FY 2026-27 is estimated to be approximately $110,000. Costs associated with the implementation of the Annual Plan of Service have already been reflected in the approved budget.
