This strategic response plan for the Geneva Public Library, developed following a community needs assessment, outlines goals to address key community challenges. It focuses on promoting healthy eating and active living, supporting positive mental health, and providing resources and programs to aid local businesses and job seekers. The plan aims to enhance community success, increase library engagement, and offer expanded educational, employment, and entertainment opportunities, positioning the library as a central community resource.

The Geneva Public Library's 2014-2017 Strategic Plan aims to increase community knowledge and use of the library by providing enhanced educational and entertainment opportunities. The plan addresses three key community needs: expanding youth-centered, non-sports programming and providing a safe 'third place' for school-aged children; actively supporting downtown revitalization efforts by enhancing physical attractiveness, providing resources for businesses, and promoting community events; and developing accessible programming and services specifically for Geneva's senior citizens. The overarching vision is for the library to be a central, positive, and inviting hub that serves the daily needs of the community.

The 2018-2020 Strategic Plan for the Geneva Public Library aims to enhance the quality of life for community citizens by providing resources and materials that foster knowledge, enlightenment, and enjoyment. The plan addresses key community needs, including improving housing opportunities through increased resources for elderly/home-bound residents, community clean-up participation, and providing information on rental housing and utilities. It also focuses on supporting childcare locations with resources and outreach, and establishing a centralized community calendar. The library's vision is to be a vital physical and virtual hub for education and entertainment, increasing overall library use and community engagement.
