Please provide a one paragraph project summary. <br /> The structure of Pleasanton's Library and Recreation department combines a wide variety of <br /> services that span from a preschool to a cemetery. This composition provides a unique <br /> opportunity to leverage our commonalities for services to varying age groups in our <br /> community. The Pleasanton Public Library would like to work in collaboration with our <br /> Pleasanton Senior Center to provide innovative services for cognitive needs that would include <br /> specialized Memory Kits and memory programs for senior adults and their caregivers and <br /> families. <br /> 2. Explain how this project fits with the library's strategic directions. <br /> In July 2019, Pleasanton's Library and Recreation department participated in a planning process <br /> to create an integrated Library and Recreation Strategic Plan. One of the adopted strategic <br /> goals is to provide enhanced programming as an integrated department. The Library has <br /> identified the following objective that matches the department's strategic direction: <br /> 1. Identify opportunities for increasing partnerships with other City departments, local <br /> agencies, businesses, and organizations to extend the reach of the departments to meet <br /> community needs and interests. <br /> By pursuing access to tools that serve the underserved communities of seniors and their <br /> families and caregivers, the Library and the Senior Center would be supporting the community <br /> and aligning with its values of inclusion, customer service, innovation, and collaboration. <br /> 32 West 25th Avenue,Suite 201 1 San Mateo,CA 94403-2265 I P:(650)349-5538 I F:(650)349-5089 I Website:www.plpinfo.org <br />
