Gerry Garzon, Library Director, Oakland Public Library
Moderator:
Margaret Kadoyama, Principal, Margaret Kadoyama Consulting
Would you like your museum to be an anchor in your community? Explore the roles of museums and libraries in community revitalization through “turning outward,” a comprehensive approach to civic change centered on our communities instead of ourselves. Hear about the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh’s creative place-making efforts, the Northwest African American Museum’s role as a vital gathering place, and the Oakland Public Library’s redefinition of library services inside, outside, and online. Learn about the skills and attributes that are critical in sustaining effective community revitalization.
The Pickering Public Library will be the heart of an engaged and creative community. We will enrich and inspire the lives of all residents; actively connecting people, ideas and cultures with openness and respect. We will be leaders in information technology, providing access to innovative technology for all. Pickering Public Library will be a destination - a fun place to visit, staffed by a diverse group of individuals who are committed to making a difference in the community.
THIS IS A SPACE FOR ALL. THIS IS MAKER SPACE. MAKE IT YOUR SPACE.

The Deeply Rooted presentation is the final project for the urban design graduate studio at Kent State's Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative from students Heather Flick and Matthew Nykamp
The slide presentation was created by graduate students from Kent State University's Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative for the Port of Conneaut and City of Conneaut, Ohio. Developed with stakeholder input over the course of a fast-paced, three day weekend, the preliminary design recommendations provide an overall vision for Conneaut's Lakefront, Downtown, Route 7 Corridor, and Regional Connections. The initial concepts shown in the presentation will require further public feedback and careful design development before specific implementation plans can be made, but serve as an important step towards realizing Conneaut's future as a thriving waterfront community.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

locations by 2019 through authentic engagement and
valued input from community residents.
Current branches in Group 1:
• South
• Fleet

• Sterling
7. Community Vision Plan
A report will be produced for each group with
recommendations tailored to each branch, which
may include:
• Exterior architectural renovations
• Concepts for reprogramming interior spaces
• Outdoor site improvements
• Framework for prioritizing library services
• Streetscape enhancements
• Creative ideas for bridging the digital divide

8. Community Vision Plan
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
• Library has not made a decision regarding
the future use of the Carnegie building.
This Community Vision Plan is the public
engagement process to arrive at an answer.
• There is no budget set for the South Branch
recommendations. The library wants to know
what the community needs are first, then plan
financial investments accordingly.
• The definition of "21st Century Library" will
be co-created by each branch community.
The Cleveland Public Library recognizes each
community has different needs and priorities.
