Annual Report

2022-2023

Director

Dear Jericho Library Community,

I am proud to announce that this year we are the only Nassau County library to receive a prestigious 5-Star Library rating by Library Journal. This was based upon our levels of service to the Jericho community which included item circulation, library visits, program attendance, public computer use, wifi sessions, website visits and electronic resource usage. Come visit the library and take advantage of our 5-star services!

The Jericho Library Board of Trustees respectfully proposes a budget for the 2023/2024 fiscal year that falls under the tax cap and reflects a 1.5% increase to the tax levy. Our continued goal is to maintain efficient and effective operations while providing the high-quality programs and services that are important to the Jericho community, now and into the future.

This coming year you will see the library embarking on necessary building improvements to be completed with existing capital funds. This includes the replacement of leaking windows as well as an update to the theater. We look forward to sharing more information as we get closer to starting these projects.

Our friendly and helpful staff are here and ready to assist you to make your visit easy and rewarding. Let us help you navigate our building, access the information and resources you need, provide you with your next great read and help you further your pursuit of lifelong learning. Attend our exciting community events and activities and make connections with your fellow community members. Have your teen join our Teen Advisory Board and develop their leadership skills. Bring the whole family and spend quality time together in our Children’s Room. Join us for a lecture or concert geared for adults. There is something for everyone at the Jericho Library. You can keep up to date on library news by subscribing to our newsletter by email or regular mail and by following us on social media.

It is a privilege to serve the community and we thank you for your support and continued patronage. The Jericho Public Library Board of Trustees, myself, and our dedicated staff will continue to deliver exceptional service to all. I hope you enjoy the warm spring weather and find time to visit the library ~ we always look forward to seeing you!

Kind Regards,

Plan of Service
