BUILDING THE VILLAGE: SUSTAINED PROGRAMMING TO MEET DIVERSE COMMUNITY NEEDS

Presenter: Diane Brown, Branch Manager, New Haven Free Public Library, Stetson Library Branch

Learn how to develop sustainable community partnerships and programs on a “zero” budget. New Haven Free Public Library’s Stetson Branch Library is located in the predominantly African American Dixwell/Newhallville neighborhoods, both of which are underserved and faced with many challenges. When Diane Brown was named Branch Manager in 2006, the library branch was struggling to maintain its position as a safe haven within the two communities. Diane set out to create a “Village” environment where all members of the community could share a safe, warm and nurturing environment. Two years later, her labor succeeded with excellent community assessment techniques, including seeking assistance and commitment from community agencies, organizations and local city departments such as the police, parks and recreation, and schools.
