[quote=Anonymous]I used to worl as an administrator for an urban public library system. In the past few years we got an increasing amount of emails from high school students who would say that they had started a non-profit or were working on a project. Their plans would involve the library in some way because they wanted or needed a community partner. They never asked anyone beforehand to find out if these were possible or wanted by the library. Most things would not follow our policies and we could not accommodate them. If they wanted to, they could volunteer at the library, but they didn't want this. I don't know who was advising them, but you can't just assume an agency will partner with you just because you have an idea. That's how it is if you partner with anyone in the work world too, say, for grants. You have to see if there is even a need and desire for the relationship before you make your plans. [/quote]
