<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The Evergreen Project Board has been in the process of gathering information to help formulate a strategic plan for The Evergreen Project, a 501(c)3 organization established to
support the Evergreen open-source ILS and its community of practitioners. Feedback has been solicited from that community of practitioners through a variety of activities and meetings. On February 22 and 23, the Strategic Plan Subcommittee of the Evergreen
Project Board will host a virtual Stakeholder Retreat facilitated by Carson Block Consulting, Inc. to review and compile the gathered data. The outcome of the retreat will be a strategic plan to ensure the sustainability of The Evergreen Project as an organization
and provide a path of support for the Evergreen open-source ILS. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The Evergreen Project Strategic Plan Subcommittee invites interested individuals to apply to fill a limited number of seats for this and will select from the pool of applicants
