Bloomfield Public Library spent FY 2023 focusing on the future, saying goodbye to the present, and putting into gear plans that were years in the making. We wrote a successful $5.526 million grant to keep our library buildings project moving forward. We had formal farewell parties to celebrate and say goodbye to Prosser and McMahon Wintonbury Libraries as we knew them. And finally, on Friday, June 30, 2023, we closed our doors to the public and activated the final stages of our move out process. All the while, library services to our deserving public continued, with our strategic plan guiding the way. Please join Director Lane as we talk about the year and share our forecasts for the future.
