Item # 16.D.6
ID# 2025-2896
Executive Summary
Recommendation to 1) approve the submittal of the FY25-26 State Aid to Library Grant application along with the 2023-
2027 Library Strategic Plan and other required documentation and 2) authorize the Chair to sign grant agreement #26-
ST-08 including certifications required for the submission of the grant application to the Florida Department of State,
Division of Library and Information Services for funding in the estimated amount of $120,354.00. (Public Services Grant
Fund 1839)
OBJECTIVE: To further the County’s Strategic Plan focus area, Quality of Place, through securing State Aid to
Libraries grant funds to support operation of Collier County Public Library system.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County Public Library (CCPL) qualifies for State Aid to Libraries under Chapter 257 of
the Florida Statutes. The Florida Department of State, Division of Library and Information Services, administers this
program. The Grant Agreement, 2023-2027 Library Strategic Plan, and the 2025-2026 Annual Plan of Service are
required elements to receive State Funding. The Board of County Commissioners (“Board”) has approved the
application for State Aid and associated contracts and documents for over three decades. The Florida Department of
State, Division of Library and Information Services, has estimated the award to Collier County Public Library to be an
amount of $120,354.00.
State Aid is available to Florida public library systems that qualify by meeting minimum requirements as stipulated in
Chapter 257, Fla. Stat. Chapter 1B-2, Florida Administrative Code. The grant amount is calculated using a formula that
considers (1) the amount of local funds appropriated for the Library adjusted by a factor based on the amount of revenue
one mill levy in the jurisdiction would generate, (2) the number of library systems in Florida that qualify in a given year,
and (3) the total amount made available by the State Legislature to improve library services within the State. Funds are
intended to supplement, rather than replace, local efforts toward that end. State Aid may not be used to fund capital
construction. It may be used for Personnel Expenses (salaries, wages, and related employee benefits), Operating
Expenses (goods and services), and Non-Fixed Capital outlay and other (operating expenditures categories in the library
budget), expenditures, and equipment.
For the first submittal of this application (October 1, 2025), the following documentation must be submitted and
approved by the Board:
• Collier County Public Library’s Strategic Plan 2023-2027
• Certification of Local Operating Expenditures
• State Aid to Libraries 26-ST-08 Grant Agreement
• Certification of Hours, Free Library Service, and Access to Material
The Annual Plan of Service for 2025-2026, along with any additional application documentation, will be brought for
approval by the Board in October or November 2025 prior to the final submission (December 1, 2025) of the grant
application.
This item is consistent with the Collier County strategic plan objective of Quality of Place, specifically that of providing
quality public amenities and recreational opportunties.
FISCAL IMPACT: Preliminary estimates show that Collier County Public Library should receive about $120,354.00 in
State Aid. Upon notification of the grant award, the Board will be asked to accept the grant and approve the budget
amendment to recognize the revenue and appropriate the expenditures. There is no match required for this grant.
Revenue and expenditures will be allocated to the Public Service Grant Fund (1839).
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management impact due to this request.

Collier County Public Library
2023‐2027 Strategic Plan
Revised September 3, 2025
Background
Collier County, located in Southwest Florida along the Gulf of America, was incorporated by the
Florida Legislature on May 8, 1923 from portions of Lee and Monroe counties. There are three
municipalities within Collier County: Everglades City, Marco Island, and Naples, which is the
County seat. According to the 2020 Census, the population of Collier County is 375,752 and was
ranked the 19th most populous county in Florida. By 2024, the population is expected to increase
by 7.1%. (2022 Collier County Economic Development Office.) According to the U. S. Census
Bureau, Collier County is the largest county out of 67 counties in Florida by land and water area,
with approximately 2,305 square miles and is larger than the state of Rhode Island.
Collier County is known as the Paradise Coast and is rich in geographic diversity, from beaches to
Big Cypress National Preserve and Everglades National Park. Collier County’s beaches, tropical
climate, and rich geographic and biological diversity make it one of the premier tourisms and
retirement destinations within the continental United States. Currently Collier County is
experiencing unprecedented real estate growth, resulting in median home listing prices of
$599,000. The average annual rental is now $2,400.00 per month (Rizzo, Tiffany. Wink
News.com. Feb 17, 2022).
The Friends of the Library (FOL) and Library Advisory Board (LAB) work collaboratively to
support the Collier County Public Library. The Friends of the Library is a nonprofit organization
that began in 1957 to establish a free public library system in Collier County. Their diligent
efforts helped create what is now the Collier County Public Library System with three large
regional libraries and seven smaller branches. The Library Advisory Board advises the Board of
County Commissioners on the operations and proposed budget for the Collier County Public
Library. Board membership, composed of five members to represent five Collier districts,
serves as a voice for county constituents and seasonal visitors. Monthly meetings are open to
the public. The LAB also identifies, evaluates and recommends services and programs that are
in alignment with our vision and mission. (Florida Code of Ordinances #88‐71‐Section 82‐32
and Ordinance 93‐86 Functions Power and Duties ‐ Collier County)
Collier County Public Library Division’s vision: “Through high quality libraries, residents and
visitors will reach their potential and communities will thrive.”
Collier County Public Library Division’s mission: “To provide educational environments, facilitate
community engagement and cultivate life‐long learning.”
Page 2343 of 3896
Collier County Public Library Division Overview
The Collier County Library Division provides library collections, services, and technology to
residents and visitors within three (3) regional libraries and seven (7) branch libraries. In doing
so, the Division manages and supports ten (10) library facilities servicing the county. All locations
offer book lending, public internet stations, printing, photocopying, free Wi‐Fi, and 24/7 drop
boxes for book and video returns. https://www.collierlibrary.org/locations/
In Fiscal Year 2021 the Library Division:
• Circulated 1,261,897 physical materials
• Provided public internet access to 1,554,532 people
• Provided the use of more than 1,000,000 electronic materials
• Served 619,300 people who visited our libraries during pandemic reduced hours and
temporary closures
• Scheduled and conducted 950 in‐person programs to 137,165 attendees
• Logged 69,545 wireless internet sessions
• Created 592 active virtual programs with 37,369 virtual attendees
• Logged more than 550,000 visits to our website
• Issued over 10,000 new library cards for a total of 188,178 library card holders
The disruptions caused by the pandemic created challenges for library leaders, staff and patrons
as they shifted to accommodate staffing changes and the increased training needs that supported
new work environments and service delivery models. As a result of the pandemic and an
increased cost of living locally, we find that we are still dealing with staffing imbalances. Several
factors that continue to challenge library services and programming include the pandemic,
unplanned resignations and time away from work related to the pandemic, and an increased cost
of living. We see these continuing to impact our strategic plan for the next five years as we
continue to adapt to new challenges. The 2021‐2022 fiscal year operating from October 1 to
September 30, saw the first increase in circulation since the pandemic. We also continue to see
an increase in usage of electronic books and virtual databases a consequence of the surge and
resurge of the pandemic. One of the positive effects of COVID has been that our patrons now
embrace the independence of online resources and services. During the ongoing effects of the
pandemic, the library has offered free internet services to all that visit Collier County, which has
significantly assisted individuals and families in accessing supplemental resources and programs
for those who are experiencing financial fragility. As supported by our most recent customer
service survey, patrons consider the library a welcoming place, supported by informed and
customer focused staff. Patrons told us they can easily access and use our online services and
resources.
Page 2344 of 3896
Collier County libraries were proactive with implementing a much‐needed virtual presence to
complement the decrease in our face‐to‐face programming and how patrons acquire and use
library material. We expanded our online library experiences for staff and the community. As
our library visits have increased, it has been a challenge to maintain both a strong face‐to‐face
and virtual presence, with the reality of reduced staffing. Potential library applicants are faced
with costly rentals and a generally high cost of living in Collier County as they make employment
decisions. As we continue to support technically challenged populations through the current
pandemic, it is imperative that the lessons learned are tracked and analyzed to prepare us, not
only for the next crisis, but also for our everyday practices in our immediate future.
For our younger patrons, we adjusted our 2021 Summer Reading Program due to the
pandemic. We made available more make‐and‐take crafts and educational supplements. We
also created more children’s virtual programs. Despite COVID, there were 2,861 patrons (974
adult patrons, 324 teen patrons and 1563 children) who registered for our 2021 summer
reading program. They read 38,249 books (4,870 adult books, 2,569 teen books, 30,810
children’s books) between June 1 and August 14. Students from over fifty (50) Collier County
Schools participated in our summer reading program. As families depend more on their
community libraries, we anticipate more patron participation in the coming years.
Purpose of this Strategic Plan
This plan articulates a clear vision of the future goals for staff and for the public. It will be used
as the primary aid in maintaining consistency between our words and our actions. The message
from our patron survey was that our patrons know what our library services should
demonstrate and deliver. The library must evolve in ways that keep pace with the diversity of
library users, ensuring all residents and visitors of Collier County have equal access to the
continuously evolving world of ideas and technology. This Strategic Plan creates a framework
for how the library will respond to the aspirations, needs, concerns and opportunities of the
community that is served by the library.
Due to the pandemic, increased resignations, and high cost of living in Collier County, libraries
are on the cusp of a great transformation. We need to respond in timely and responsible ways
to our patrons’ evolving needs. There have been many changes in how people access and use
information, rely upon our e‐resources, interact with one another and in the resources, tools
and capabilities needed to operate effectively. All of this requires new accommodating
approaches to library services and resources.
Page 2345 of 3896
Planning Process
The scope of work described below is intended to provide a general understanding of the Collier
County Public Library Division’s (CCPL) expectations for the Five‐Year Strategic Plan. Our Public
Services Director and our Library Director put together a team of librarians and marketing
members to assist the completion of a new Five‐Year Strategic Plan.
The team prepared a needs assessment that included surveys, focus groups, Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis and the formation of a comprehensive
library strategic plan. The plan will create a guide with proposed standards, based on industry
best practices and consistent with the identified needs and opportunities in the County, for
ensuring an appropriate and equitable balance of book lending (both books and e‐books), library
apps, programs, facilities, and printing amenities. The plan will also include measurable strategies
to achieve the recommendations, goals, policies, and guidelines that will result in the appropriate
balance of materials, programs and facility usage.
The Strategic Planning Team had available to them as resources:
A. A comprehensive 2018‐2022 CCPL Strategic Plan
B. Annual Plan of Service Scorecard Template
C. Strategic Planning resources from national, state and local government entities and
associations
The experienced staff members worked closely with county staff in preparing the needs
assessment and action plan. The staff members created a full report and executive summary for
public distribution. This process included developing a comprehensive inventory, an analysis of
forecasted needs and opportunities, recommendations, implementation strategies, and project
schedule for the strategic plan development and completion.
Project Schedule
The Collier County Public Library anticipated conducting the project, up to the point of the
adoption process, over a period of not more than six (6) months, starting in March 2022. The
project addressed the scope of work and included an approximate timeline for completing each
of the individual tasks, up to the point of the adoption process. Any additional tasks or other
changes to the scope of work recommended by the Strategic Planning Team should be indicated
in the project schedule.

Goals and Outcomes
The Library would embark on several surveys and focus group assessments and use the results
to help guide the long‐term goals of the Library. The goal of the assessment is to gain as much
insight from resident populations, exempt and non‐exempt staff and to discover what matters
most to our users. Are we doing the right things? Are we doing things right? If not, why not?
The Strategic Planning Team was recruited in February 2022 and immediately planned focus
group meetings and survey assessments. This was quickly followed up with staff table‐top
discussions. A formal online staff survey was conducted with eighty (80) of eighty‐four (84)
surveys completed by mid‐ March.
The team simultaneously focused on surveying patrons and non‐library users with questions
about services on social media and our web page. We took advantage of outreach
opportunities to survey non‐library users. The patron survey closed in April 2022, and we had
over 700 public responses received.
Page 2348 of 3896
Current and futures needs were recognized in these key areas:
1. Locations and Facilities: Maintain and improve upon safety and security at existing
libraries. Identify and prioritize current library sites that need immediate renovation such
as sidewalks, parking lots, lawn irrigation system and landscape features. In addition,
restore and sustainably manage libraries within Collier County for the benefit of present
and future generations.
2. Programming and Services: Create a more inclusive and engaged library culture for all
patrons. Encourage Collier County residents to actively participate in borrowing
materials, planning programs, and stewardship of Collier County Public Library
resources. Efficiently provide for the Collier County Public Library interests of Collier
County residents, utilizing and accessing public resources 24/7. Strive to meet the
unmet needs for library programs and services in the County through the development
and implementation of best practices. Improve and expand educational opportunities
by developing new programs and services, improving existing programs and services,
and developing and implementing best practices. Promote the education of Collier
County populations through physical and online subscription resources purchased
through the library to meet the needs of the residents and visitors of Collier County.
3. Marketing – overall public relations, social media, community outreach: Continue
providing effective community outreach and marketing for increasing public awareness
and support of library services. Increasing awareness of Library services and programs to
ensure that the public continues to appreciate the importance and benefits of CCPL to
our community and is well informed about library offerings. Communicate the value of
partnerships to potential funders and the community. Build on the power of virtual
engagement to shape engagement opportunities going forward. For our diverse
populations provide marketing material in multiple languages with easy accessibility.
4. Community Engagement ‐Invite participation to all by engaging with community
members where they are, whether in the library building, online environment or
community partners’ spaces. Build stronger community engagement strategies with
supporters, donors and volunteers to advance the mission of CCPL. Increase
collaborations with partners like the FOL. Build sustainable and impactful partnerships
with public and private sector organizations and institutions through outreach and
collaborations.
Page 2349 of 3896
5. Staffing‐ Train staff to share job functions and responsibilities and anticipate emerging
needs. Be flexible in the division of roles responsibilities and embrace new ways of
working. Learn how to operate in a constantly changing environment. Restructure to
align with County strategies. Develop structured and relevant staff training and
leadership opportunities throughout CCPL. Identify opportunities for career
development and encourage the heart of staff. Correlate staffing levels with circulation,
visitation, and user statistics. Focus on building professional staff by maintaining
marketing and outreach staff, include dedicated branch managers and librarians.
Upgrade administrative processes for staff, monthly schedules, timecards and travel
forms. Look for and encourage internal and external county recruitment opportunities
that align more with staff’s interest, growth and development.
6. Open Hours & Days—Continue to survey the community for unmet needs. The current
survey data showed that we are meeting the needs of the community. Core level
services and library should be open daily. Each library should be open one day per
weekend.
(Evening hours, staffing levels, and evening programming are necessary to balance user
needs).
7. Technology—realize the full potential of digital resources by improving upon the
existing technology. Simplify access to digital resources by creating a single point of
entry. Recognize the urgency to support those who do not have the tools or skills to
operate online. Library should be at the forefront of everything technological. Update
payment processes and public document stations with upgraded
scanning/faxing/printing/copy.
8. Computers & Internet—many computer work areas and labs are retrofitted into
existing spaces. Dedicated private or enhanced semi‐private labs at each library,
enhanced WiFi, and wireless services should be a goal.
9. Hub Libraries—specific areas of concentration, expertise and relevant programming.
Genealogy hub and homework help centers through the American Rescue Plan Act
(ARPA) grant
10. Children to Young Adult—growth and expansion in materials, resources, programs, and
staff dedicated to these age groups. Create continuity throughout all locations with
staffing and storytellers for programming. Build on existing county partnerships and
expand outreach services to provide educational opportunities for children of all ages.
Page 2350 of 3896
11. Collections—Work to create a policy for collection management that is more precise
and more accurate to the needs of our users. Increase access to digital resources and
establish an increased revenue sources for operational expenses. (Annual Update and
Inventory Report (AUIR) ‐ per capita of 1.87. upgrade ILS system)
The key themes listed above emerged to guide the development of the 2023‐2027 Collier
County Public Library Strategic Plan. Current and futures needs were recognized in these key
recommendations from the survey.
Input from the community and library staff guided the development of the major components
of the Strategic Plan. The Library Advisory Board viewed and commented on the Collier County
Public Library 2023‐2027 Strategic Plan during their regular meeting in June 2022.
The current US Census data shows Collier County’s median age to be 51.8 years compared to
the Florida median of 42.4 and the U.S. median of 38.5. Collier County continues to be a
favorite tourist destination between November and April. The population increases to around
466,000 people. The seasonal population is projected to around 509,000 people by the year
2025.

A Call to Action
The best strategic plans are dynamic, flexible tools for continuous improvement. With the
Library’s mission as the primary foundation, its vision as the ideal, and the County’s Core Values
as guides to decision making, the Collier County Public Library system will commit to a process
that ensures accountability, versatility, and rational decision‐making. Seeking out the needs and
wants of Collier’s residents and visitors through surveys and focus groups was the first step. From
there it is the Library’s responsibility to develop an appropriate strategy to address current needs
and plan for the future. The Library Advisory Board (LAB) and Strategic Initiatives Division will
have the primary responsibility to monitor the plan’s goals and objectives and assess overall
progress. Library staff will have the responsibility of overseeing implementation, consulting, and
working with groups directly involved or affected by decisions. Through the course of
implementation, new issues, new priorities and challenges will emerge. In a cyclical process
Library staff and the LAB will measure progress, budget resources to maximize outcomes, and
identify potential new areas that require action. In this way, both the strategic plan and annual
plan of service will be constantly reviewed, evaluated, and updated.
