Scenario Planning For Libraries

In scenario planning, you develop stories about possible futures. Stories encourage an imaginative team approach to designing strategies that move the organization forward no matter what the future holds. You may apply scenario planning in a large-scale stategic overhaul, as described in the case study of Arlington County (Virginia) Public Libraries, or you may use it to address a specific issue, as described in the consideration of a student technology fee at a major research university. Scenario Planning for Libraries applies this successful model from the business world to the unique library environment.
