Goal 7: The library's human resources support the strategic plan.
7.2: By 6/30/08, the library will have a staffing plan in place that allocates resources in support of the Strategic Plan.
What are some strategies we have for this?
-
Each goal champion for Goals 1-4 identifies staffing levels needed to accomplish objectives.
-
Identify target percentage of scheduled time for each position to be spent in direct public service; define the role and expectations of MLS-prepared librarians, etc.
-
Review existing staffing allocations and align staff with the goals and objectives of the strategic plan.
-
Temporary employees will be deployed to fill open positions prior to hiring new employees. Review the ways substitutes are deployed and develop a plan for optimal numbers and deployment of substitutes.
-
Designate a volunteer coordinator; develop a volunteer program.
- Coordinate staff recognition activities, including Staff Activities Committee, Staff Recognition Team, Trustees Award, Grapevine, County Employee Recognition Luncheon, etc.
What are we working on?
- Currently serving as volunteer coordinator in an interim capacity, Karlene Fyffe, Library Youth Services Manager, has pulled together a group of staff who are responsible for working with volunteers. This committee is developing a database to track volunteer service and a volunteer recognition program.
What has been working great for us?
