JVA Consulting to GCPLD 

Introduction  Garfield County Public Library District (GCPLD) has been providing services to the residents of Garfield County 

since the first library opened more than 75 years ago. GCPLD has a strong foundation and a long legacy of 

providing access to knowledge, resources and services. GCPLD believes that its next great challenge lies in 

creating an organization that understands the needs of our communities and ensures that the libraries are 

both a reflection of their communities and a window to the world beyond. As a fundamental educational 

service supported by tax dollars, GCPLD believes that everyone should be aware of what the library can do for 

them. 

 

GCPLD determined that a comprehensive marketing review was needed to better understand the publics’ 

perceptions of the libraries and how they learned about library programs services. Additionally, GCPLD 

recognized that new strategic vision, mission and values statements were necessary to provide organizational 

alignment and clarity for staff, volunteers and the public about who we are and what we offer. Of primary 

concern was reaching out to underserved and unserved portions of our communities. GCPLD knew that in 

order to reach the majority of residents in the county, we had to increase the visibility of library services in 

each of the library’s six communities and throughout the region. 

 

Methods To accomplish these goals, GCPLD engaged JVA Consultants to conduct community research, including: 

Administering an online survey in English and Spanish that was completed by 1,258 people 

Reviewing demographic data on Garfield County residents collected from an Esri (2010) profile 

Facilitating a series of six 90‐minute public meetings—one at each GCPLD library—that engaged over 

200 community members in envisioning how the libraries could better meet community members’ 

needs related to six usage areas, honing in on top strategies, and discussing current and future 

marketing and communications 

Analyzing existing internal products and procedures to look for improvements and economies 

 

GCPLD’s Strategic Elements  

Our mission is to connect our communities to a world of possibilities. 

Our vision is to be a trusted and valued resource to everyone in our communities.  

Our core values: 

Balance: We ensure our libraries reflect our diverse communities and the world beyond.  

Community: We foster connections and return value on our community’s investment in us. 

Empowerment: We're here to help by providing tools and assistance for education and exploration. 

Excellence: We provide exceptional staff, materials, services and facilities. 

Innovation: We encourage new ideas and the understanding of technology.

JVA Consulting to GCPLD 

Brand Concept. GCPLD is a trusted partner and valued resource in Garfield County. GCPLD is community 

focused, providing a solid return on investment and providing all community members with the tools and 

resources they need to reach their goals. GCPLD maintains high‐quality facilities, materials and programs, and 

provides the community with access to leading‐edge technology.  

Tag Line: Find Your Story. GCPLD believes that it offers something for everyone and using the Find Your Story 

theme on promotional materials embodies this concept. GCPLD should expand this concept into a campaign to 

promote library services. 

Target Markets To better understand how to tailor messaging to different populations, JVA identified target markets contained 

within GCPLD’s service area of Garfield County. An analysis of the Esri Demographic Profile and data collected 

from the community outreach identified the following seven markets. The full report describes suggestions for 

reaching each population through targeted marketing, data on each group’s perceptions, and suggestions for 

targeted library programming and events.  

 

Teens and pre‐teens ages 11–17  

“New adults” ages 18–25 

Young families ages 25–40, with children under the age of 10 

Younger adults ages 30 to 40 

Middle‐age adults ages 40 to 50 

Working older adults ages 50 and older 

Spanish‐speaking adults and their families  

 

Recommendations  Recommendations in this report are divided into five sections in alignment with GCPLD’s marketing goals. 

Collectively, the five sections contain 15 recommendations for GCPLD’s marketing and communication efforts, 

programming and outreach training.  A full description of the JVA recommendations and data collected is 

available in the full report online at www.garfieldlibraries.org. 

 

Goal 1: Make getting a library card easier and increase the frequency of visits to the library by 

cardholders. 

GCPLD’s target audience includes all members of Garfield County and beyond, especially those who do not 

have a library card or do not use the one they have. GCPLD currently has approximately 45,000 library 

cardholders (in a current population of 57,302), but in the past six months, only 19,000 of those cards were 

active. GCPLD would like to see existing cardholders use the library more often, and to win over non‐users by 

effectively demonstrating the value of the public library and all it offers. 

Recommendation 1: Increase Library Membership and Usage. In order to increase GCPLD membership and 

use, JVA suggests creating a Find Your Story campaign to engage new potential library cardholders, reengaging 

existing library users through better communication; and easing the requirements to obtain a library card.

JVA Consulting to GCPLD 

Goal 2: Make the libraries more inviting to individuals who need assistance by improving 

accessibility. 

There are several underserved populations in Garfield County that do not currently take full advantage of 

library programs and services because of barriers to access. Those barriers might include the inability to speak 

English, read without assistance or get to the library. GCPLD believes that the library is for everyone, no matter 

their circumstances.  

 

Recommendation 2: Engage Spanish‐Speaking Adults. JVA recommends that GCPLD engage in an effort to 

better engage Spanish‐speaking adults in library programs. There are a number of reasons why this is difficult, 

including language and literacy struggles, issues of mistrust of government agencies and broad diversity within 

the Spanish‐speaking community (e.g., background, culture, education, work experience, language fluency). 

While GCPLD has Spanish‐language materials in every branch and a strong Spanish language option on its 

website, it lacks adequate Spanish‐speaking staff or Spanish‐language programming to attract a significant 

segment of that population.  

Recommendation 3: Engage Individuals with Disabilities. Some people have accessibility issues that could be 

addressed through the public library. Solutions often require costly technologies, staff training, space and time. 

GCPLD should make every effort to reach out to groups in the community that serve individuals with 

disabilities to determine their needs before implementing any solution. Target audiences can better inform the 

library of their needs and may be of some assistance in helping to locate grants and other resources to help 

support the effort.  

Recommendation 4: Expand Homebound Services. GCPLD currently serves people in nearly every community 

who have limited mobility. More can be done to promote homebound services, alternative transportation and 

partnerships with local agencies that serve people who are unable to get to the library on their own. 

Goal 3. Increase opportunities for community members to share their knowledge and skills through 

library activities and programs. 

GCPLD believes that in order to “connect” to our communities, we need to engage them. Every community has 

numerous individuals who have talents, interests and passions that they are willing to share with others. By 

offering an outlet for citizens’ creativity, the library can serve as a center for sharing these community assets. 

 

Recommendation 5: Engage Community Members in Creating and Presenting Library Programs. It is critical 

to better utilize GCPLD’s programming resources to ensure a good return on the investment. Involving 

members of the local community in creating, planning and evaluating library programs can ensure that 

community needs are being addressed and that programming is aligned with GCPLD’s goals.  

Recommendation 6: Enrich Library Users’ Experiences Through Targeted Programming. GCPLD should 

develop standards for program protocols that cover the basic procedures for program planning and execution 

as a guide for branch staff to help ensure success. JVA recommends reducing the overall amount of programs 

and ensuring that all programming is of high quality and in alignment with GCPLD mission, vision and values. 

To accomplish this, JVA developed a five‐tier program marketing protocol, production and design (P&D) 

process, and strategy screen. These processes will assist GCPLD in its efforts to focus its marketing efforts on

Page 13: AGENDA Garfield County Public Library District Board of ... 2014 Board Packet.pdfBuy local: In our Purchasing Policy, it states that we prefer to buy locally, green, and receive the

programs that have the best potential to attract a diverse audience, showcase the library’s materials and 

services, or respond to a need of the local community. 

Goal 4: Improve our methods of communication to our communities to keep them informed of 

everything the library has to offer and help them discover what's new. 

Through the community data collection, GCPLD discovered that community members were overwhelmingly 

unaware of what the libraries offered beyond books. Communication must improve to truly inform, as well as 

meet people where they are on the technology scale. To accomplish this, JVA suggests reducing the “noise” 

while building a personal relationship with each member of our communities. 

Recommendation 7: Ensure Quality of Printed Marketing Materials. To ensure that all GCPLD’s printed 

marketing materials reflect the high quality standards desired, JVA recommends reducing the total amount of 

printed materials, creating reusable marketing materials, and reducing clutter at library desks. 

Recommendation 8: Improve Information Quality on GCPLD Program Calendars. To improve the information 

quality of GCPLD’s program calendars, JVA recommends that GCPLD change the printed calendar to a two‐

sided format that highlights featured events. 

Recommendation 9: Develop a Menu of Services. While it is clear that most people visit the library to borrow 

books, the survey data showed that many people never use or are not aware that some library services, such 

as borrowing e‐books or individualized technology instruction, are offered. To ensure that all current and 

future library users are well‐informed of the services offered at each library branch should be represented in a 

“menu of services” containing all the ways that people can utilize the libraries.  

Recommendation 10: Ensure That GCPLD Uses Promotional Materials Effectively. Promotional signage is a 

key marketing tool. With so many community members expressing a desire for programming that is already 

offered, effective external (e.g., weatherproof outdoor signs, chalkboards, sandwich boards, banners) and 

internal (e.g., posters, flyers) signage is needed to help build awareness of programs.  

Recommendation 11: Continue to Foster Beneficial Relationships with Local Media. GCPLD already has 

longstanding and fruitful relationships with local media, and strengthening and improving these relationships 

could be beneficial to GCPLD’s efforts. To better market the libraries, JVA provided recommendations in the 

full report for building partnerships with local newspaper and radio stations, utilizing filler space, offering 

partnership opportunities, and communicating regularly with the press. 

Recommendation 12: Optimize Digital Content. Utilizing digital media is one of the most cost‐effective ways 

to build awareness of GCPLD programming. The current website (www.gcpld.org) offers library users a sleek 

and highly visual portal into the Garfield County Libraries catalog, policies, programs and services. To improve 

the web presence of GCPLD and the branches, JVA recommends using sans‐serif font, increasing the visibility 

of online registration for library cards, providing adequate descriptive content to engage users about upcoming 

programs and events, and highlighting branch‐specific programs.  

Recommendation 13: Improve and Increase Libraries’ Social Media Presence. Social media is an important 

tool to connect with community members, expand the GCPLD’s marketing reach and receive feedback from 

library users. JVA recommends that GCPLD consider Facebook to be the primary tool for social media 

Page 11 of 38

Page 14: AGENDA Garfield County Public Library District Board of ... 2014 Board Packet.pdfBuy local: In our Purchasing Policy, it states that we prefer to buy locally, green, and receive the

marketing. Twitter and Instagram should be considered complimentary strategies, and Pinterest should be 

explored.  

Recommendation 14: Improve Newsletter Content and Timeliness. Newsletters are an important way to 

engage diverse audiences and donors. JVA recommends that GCPLD discontinue the quarterly printed 

newsletter and instead infuse quarterly content into a monthly e‐newsletter. 

Goal 5: Ensure all marketing efforts are aligned with GCPLD’s mission, vision and values, and that 

all staff are informed and prepared to promote the library’s services, materials and programs. 

GCPLD should ensure that their policies, actions and goals embody their organizational values, vision and 

mission. The staff and public should be aware of goals and objectives through clear and succinct branding and 

messaging. Staff should be able to provide accurate information on all programs, initiatives and services. Board 

and volunteers should have a clear sense of the mission, vision and values and be able to articulate them to 

others. Elected Officials, Local Businesses, community partners and the general public should have a strong 

sense of what the libraries offer and represent to their community. 

Recommendation 15: Utilize Library Staff to Enhance Customer Service and Communication. In order to 

ensure that all staff are informed and prepared to promote the library’s services, materials and programs, it is 

critical to engage library staff as resources and information‐sharing networks. Doing so will both ensure that 

library users are aware of existing library resources and enhance the users’ customer service experience. JVA 

suggests empowering staff members to be library ambassadors by training staff regularly in best practices in 

customer service, engaging staff in active community building with library users, and utilizing word‐of‐mouth 

communication as a key marketing tool.  

Messaging, Budget, and Review of Success Messaging. The full report provides suggestions for messaging themes and brand statements and messaging 

content suggested for use in marketing materials.  

 

Marketing Budget. JVA made recommendations for GCPLD’s 2015 marketing budget, including marketing in 

English‐language and Spanish‐language media, printing brochures, magnets and posters, paid social media 

advertisements, and other needs, as they arise. 

 

Review of Success and Ongoing Goals. JVA recommends that GCPLD conduct ongoing monitoring and analysis 

of its progress toward the marketing goals described in this plan, and provided recommendations to allow for 

GCPLD to track its progress. 

Conclusion  GCPLD is in the enviable position of having enthusiastic community support, outstanding new and innovative 

facilities, and great board, staff, volunteers and community support. The challenge is in how to communicate 

more effectively in order to promote individual membership, programs and services, community engagement 

and user satisfaction to ever‐higher levels.

BRANCH NARRATIVES – September, 2014  GLENWOOD SPRINGS Programming:  We had an awesome 1st anniversary celebration at the branch with music and activities on the plaza. We also hosted author Jim Hale and his Alaskan Adventure program and a reception for the Glenwood Springs Art Guild. Volunteers:  We have some great volunteers who come weekly to tidy up and fill the book sale as well as several that assist with shelving.    Training and Staffing: Ann and Brigitt from the Glenwood Springs branch did a staff swap.  Darla attended MUG. Community Outreach:  Sue, Leslie and Maggie are all teaching enrichment classes for RE‐1. Sue is teaching song writing and Leslie and Maggie are doing STEM activities. These are 8 week classes and the District is compensated for their time.   SILT Programming:  This month we had an adult craft class on Rag Rug Crochet.  We’ve jumped in to our Friday programming for the elementary and middle school aged youth.  We have a four week rotation of programs that follow the theme of art, puzzles and games, movies and librarian’s choice. We have seen pretty good attendance and have about as many people show up as we did last year when we had scheduled classes put on by teachers.  Volunteers:  Our high school seniors have started coming in to help out with our Friday programs and have been a nice extra set of hands for those days, which are now our busiest of the week.   Training and Staffing: I have been able to continue to split my time this month between the New Castle branch and Silt.  Ann and Brigitt from the Glenwood Springs branch did a staff swap.  Amy S. visited our branch to train a few more staff on doing book repairs.  The hope is that having more staff able to quickly repair books will keep us the books from staying in repair (and unable to be checked out) for so long.  We attended our semi‐annual staff in‐service in Parachute this fall.  Staff was positive about it and it seemed that each staff member learned something different from the presentations.  Community Outreach:  Karen continues to assist the homebound seniors at the Senior Housing.  Barb has been able to get to visit and read to a few preschools in the area.   NEW CASTLE Programs: In October we continued our Friday @ your Library program for school aged children. We had activities such as a Halloween Party and STEM kits to play with. Over the month we had about 100 kids in attendance. We had two very successful teen programs; A Book to Movie Marathon, with 9 attending, and an Altered Notebooks class with 8 in attendance. We held the Abe Lincoln Alive presentation and got 10 in attendance. Our family movie night where we showed Frankenweenie had 8 in attendance.   Volunteers: Our 5 volunteers logged 40 volunteer hours for the month of October, helping with regular tasks such as calling holds, shelving, program assistance, sorting book sale books and preparing books to be shipped to Better World Books. The Volunteer Appreciation Lunch in was held in New Castle on the 25th with approximately 20 volunteers from the whole district attending.   Training and staffing: Stephen Tafoya came and trained on adding apps to the iPads. Lora Samson attended the state CAL conference in Loveland. We held interviews for the Branch Manager’s Position and plan to have someone start in the beginning of November.

Community Outreach: We held our annual Storytime Halloween Parade on the 30th. There were over 80 participates who went around to local business who gave out treats.   RIFLE Programs: Each Monday night in the month of October the Rifle Branch hosted a film series discussion led by Colorado Mesa University history professor Sarah Swedberg.  This four part series, “Created Equal”, documented the history of America’s civil rights struggles.  This program was provided for by a grant through the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. While this was a compelling topic and the PBS film series and group discussions were of exceptional quality, we did not have as many attendees as we had hoped.  Our Halloween Parade was the most well attended it has ever been with 610 participants weaving their way through City Hall and around town.  Local businesses were alerted to our anticipated increase in trick or treaters, but this years numbers far surpassed all of our expectations!  Next year we are planning to incorporate our iPads and wireless printing to offer photos while folks line up. Volunteers:  We continue to rely on the help of our volunteers each week. One of our long term volunteers Darlene, has moved from the area and we will miss her dedication and willing attitude.  Her last contribution was to prepare large packets of die cut shapes to fulfill the requests for many of our other District library branches.   Training and staffing: Laura West attended Colorado Association of Libraries in Loveland as Rifle’s representative.  She came back excited aobut implementing new outreach strategies and making customer service interactions more effective for both staff and library patrons. Community Outreach: We are working with the Rifle Creek Historical Museum to have more exhibits and displays in the library when the Museum is closed for the cold months of the year  PARACHUTE Programs: Marie started two new Monday programs ‐ STEAM train and Maker Monday.  She also resumed the Saturday program, Recipe for Adventure and a few families came.  Saturday kids programs are hit or miss but we both think it is important to offer it.  Both had a good turnout and she will continue to promote these events throughout the school year.  I was excited to have Denver author, Mark Stevens visit, but unfortunately had only one person attend.  I look forward to improvements as we move forward with the marketing plan.  All Halloween editions of our programs ‐ candy sushi in Anime Club, scary food and goo in Good Bad Gross and a special evening Spooky Storytime ‐ had great turnouts. Volunteers: We logged 39 volunteer hours this past month with 10 volunteers. Our devoted adult volunteers continue to help with calling holds, removing our recyclables and homebound delivery.  Training and staffing: I led a staff committee who organized the 2014 Fall Staff Work Day.  We packed in a lot of content but the day was well‐received.  I also participated in the search committee for the New Castle branch manager.  Everyone attended the respective team meetings but there were no other trainings outside of Staff Day this month. Community Outreach: Marie resumed her middle school visits.  She presents at morning assemblies and gets students excited about new books and programs at the library.  She also worked on her instruction skills this month and presented database, test prep and research information to two high school classes.  Our homebound program remains steady serving 6‐8 patrons weekly.  Karen and I hope to present at the Senior lunch in the coming months.  CARBONDALE Programs:  This month was One Book One Town at the Carbondale Branch Library. Our author this year, Franny Billingsley, visited CMS, RFHS and Bridges High School (a total of 145 students) providing writer's
