Every few years, the Library Board of Trustees and the staff work together on a plan to guide the library's policies, budgeting and decision-making. These plans require public input, thoughtful consideration of Stratham today and its library needs, and a proactive outlook. We are committed to being the best possible library for the community of Stratham and we hope that you will read our current plan, help us with our future plans and let us know what you need and want from your library.
