Ikaroa Hui : Engaging with your Community & Building Relationships

Working with you community will be to your benefit. There is nothing better than having your community as an advocate for your library, especially in these tough times.

Everything we do must fit within the four well beings, cultural well being, environment well being, social well being and economic well being.

We need to work with our local community, the business community the educational community and the council community. They are our greatest assets.

It is not what you know but who you know.  So get involved, say yes!

Sponsorship is the key to sucess in what ever form you can get.
Local Groups like operatic society, repetory groups, teachers, scouts guiding etc can all be useful know, you never know when a theme for a holiday programme a book launch they may be useful to help you.
Working with you community will be to your benefit, so get involved in your community, get to know your community.
