Lake County Libraries….market penetration

As we start our research into Lake County libraries, we found some interesting statistics.  From the State of Ohio Library website, we see exactly what the people in the community think of their library.  If you deem it important, we would think that you would at least get a library card.

********************
Market penetration is the percentage of a target market that consumes a product or service.

To the Morley Library Trustees –  a little embarrassing isn’t it?…..Before you ask a for continuing levy (FOREVER), you may wish to think about new strategies on how you can become relevant in the community and increase the registered borrowers, because what you have done to date is not working.  Just our opinion.

Stay tuned, we will have a lot more information on Lake County libraries.  Honesty and transparency on all local issues is our goal.
