Subject: BPL strategic long range planning

City of Boston public library strategic long range planning
should not keep at too long arms' reach a process that needs
to include greater public participation at many levels.

Begin with principles of open government as made clear by
our Massachusetts League of Women Voters
http://www.ma.lwv.org/guideto.htm#Minutes%20and%20Other%20Public%20Records


Sunshine open meeting and state local freedom of information
FOI principles do apply to Boston Public Library strategic
long range planning reports, consultants' reports and
related information.

BPL board chair Joe Mullaney, former Gillette exec and
president Bernie Margolis, an editor of The Bottom Line,
http://www.mcb.co.uk/bl.htm

need to remove barriers to access information. That is a
first step to greater public participation that more people
who are interested can inform themselves and submit more
robust feedback.
