Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION

Bclc is a voluntary, cooperative membership network of the public libraries in baldwin county. In support of the member libraries, bclc will provide a range of services to meet member library needs. Elevating all libraries in the county to meet the alabama library association standards for alabama public libraries is a continuing objective. The public library, as an institution, is a unique social phenomenon whose impact affects all levels of society. As part of the community support structure, the public library is central to the dissemination of information in a democratic society. Technology is changing the way we communicate and the way we find and make use of the information we need. It is the public library's role to identify the needs of their community and then to provide public access to knowledge in whatever form it takes, including technology when appropriate. Bclc will continue to pursue the goals established by our technology plan, and implement as many of the supporting activities as possible.

Knowledge in whatever form it takes, including technology when appropriate. Bclc will continue to pursue the goals established by our technology plan, and implement as many of the supporting activities as possible.

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4D

Bclc is also responsible for provision of library services to those citizens and students who are not served, for whatever reason, by a municipal or school library. To meet this need, bclc provides outreach services such as a bookmobile and deposit stations (small collections of resources changed quarterly at designated locations throughout baldwin county). The baldwin county library cooperative and its member libraries will work together to provide the best possible library services, information technology and telecommunications access to our citizens.
