Description : Our unique creativity library was floundering, and on the precipice of completely failing. With no foot traffic and a strained relationship with our non-profit partner where our creativity library is housed, library leadership decided it was time for some drastic changes. After creating a task force comprised of members from both the partnering non-profit organization and our leadership team, a SWOT analysis was completed, and critical areas of improvement were identified. These simple, inexpensive changes led to dramatic results, increasing foot traffic by almost 900% during the Fall 2017 and Spring 2018 semesters
