At the next meeting Charlotte Bourg will have demographic data and information on population trends in the parish. Some of the ideas for collecting anecdotal data include electronic and paper surveys, idea boards for suggestions, and focus groups to be held at all the library buildings. Claire and Kirk will invite others to participate in this process.
