Burbank library officials are hoping to take local library facilities and services to the next level to better meet the needs of the community. Elizabeth Goldman, library services director for the city, updated the City Council during a study session earlier this month about the current trends regarding library spaces and services as well as what the city has done, so far, to keep up with the times. Goldman said cities around the world are continuing to build new library facilities. The library services director focused on current library trends, one of which is the changing use of space. Policies also need to change to provide the public better access to libraries and services, Goldman said.
