The health and security of our members is of the utmost importance, so we thank you for understanding. The Il Punto! team are brainstorming other ways for the community to help the Biblioteca Italiana replace books and shelves damaged in the 2022 flood. Details coming once determined. A questionnaire to members along with interviews with key external individuals was recently conducted to gather input for the Punto Strategic Plan. This information will be used to prepare a Strategic Plan that will be available to help the 2023 Board of Directors.
