The Citizen, 2015-09-24, Page 33The Huron County Library Board
is pleased to announce that for the
first time, the Ontario Public Library
Guidelines Monitoring and
Accreditation Council has awarded a
five-year accreditation status to the
Huron County Library. The Huron
County Library system and
branches: Alice Munro (formerly
Wingham) Bayfield, Blyth, Brussels,
Exeter, Goderich, Hensall, Howick,
Kirkton, Seaforth and Zurich have
all been approved for accreditation
under the Ontario Public Library
Guidelines. Clinton Library did not
meet the minimum standards, due to
issues relating to accessibility at the
branch and therefore will not receive
accreditation.
“Receiving this accreditation is a
significant achievement for our
library systems,” says Jim
Fergusson, Chair of the Huron
County Library Board. “It shows
that wherever you live, rural or
urban, you can have access to high
quality services in cost-effective
ways. By providing access to free
resources, libraries function as a
great equalizer in our communities.
Huron County can be proud of
the fact that, as demonstrated
through the accreditation process,
the library system does this for its
residents.”
Library systems in Ontario are not
required to engage in this rigorous
process, which involves on-site
reviews and external accreditors, to
ensure that both the system and the
individual branches meet standards
for providing library service in
Ontario.
“It’s not a mandatory program, but
the five-year accreditation status
effectively demonstrates that the
Huron County Library is working
well,” according to CEO, Meighan
Wark.
“In addition to verifying policies
and processes, accreditation speaks
to the planning, monitoring and
continual program and
improvements that are undertaken
on an ongoing basis.”
