- The Library of Michigan's Plan 2020-2023
Over a six-month period in 2019, the Library of Michigan developed a strategic plan for 2020-2023.
The Library has done an excellent job of supporting libraries and collecting and disseminating information about the state. However, many people have no idea about the breadth of the Library’s collections and the diverse ways it supports literacy, libraries throughout the state, and the professionals who work in the field. And, as libraries play changing roles in their communities, the types of supports they need continue to change as well.Read Strategic Plan
