The Cambridge Public Library Board and staff announced this week that a new chapter will begin for the organization. We will move from using the name Idea Exchange to Cambridge Public Library.
“As I returned to the area and began my new role with Idea Exchange, I spent much of my time building relationships with community members, learning about their connection with our organization,” said Chrissy Hodgins, CEO. “During these conversations and throughout our strategic plan process, I began to notice that people were less certain about what the public library was about and it became clear that returning to a name that included “public library” was the right choice for our community.”
“It is the board’s hope that this change will restore the clarity, trust, and sense of purpose of the public library,” said Thomas Sandor, Chair of the Cambridge Public Library Board. “And that the change will ensure everyone knows exactly what the library is about and why it is so important to our community. Cambridge Public Library will continue to bring the future to Cambridge.”
