Editor's Notes
- Begin by querying the staff: Length of time at Durham County Library: 1 year or less, 1-5 years, 5-10 years, 10- 20 years, more than 20 years. How do you feel about the changes that are happening with Durham County Library? : ecstatically happy, relatively interested and hopeful, mildly skeptical, sinking feeling in your stomach, you’re searching the classified ads? (you can raise your hand multiple times) Explanation of the talk title: Anyone ever been in a relationship that has ended? In the attempt to make the “breakee” feel better, the “breaker” that’s “It’s not you – it’s me”. However, instead of ending a relationship, Durham County Library is about to begin a new relationship with it’s community where “It’s not about ME (individual Library employees/more of the same without questioning why, etc.) – it’s about YOU (anyone/everyone who has an opinion on the future of Durham County Library).
