You may have noticed that we are no longer offering the number of library programs for adults that we have offered in the past. The primary reason for this is lack of attendance.

    Did you realize that we often pay an honorarium for our speakers/performers? Even if a speaker is free, it does cost him or her time and money to prepare, travel, and put on a program. (Not to mention library staff time in booking, publicizing, and presenting the programs.) We welcome your input in future adult program planning (including performer contact information if at all possible). Please fill out this brief questionnaire, submit it online, or print the form, complete it, and mail or bring it to the library. Attach additional comments if you wish. If you prefer, click on this pdf format to print and complete. Thank you.

1. About how many adult programs have you attended at the Nesmith Library over the past 3 years?

2. If you have attended an adult program, were you satisfied with the offering?

4. Do you think the Nesmith Library should continue to offer adult programs despite low attendance?

5. Please tell us what type of program/s you would be willing to attend if offered. Be as specific as possible, for example, put “lecture about environmental issues” (or other topic) rather than “lectures,” or “jazz performance,” rather than “music.”
