San Diego OASIS Recognized for Innovative Community Partnership
San Diego OASIS was honored as one of two first-time recipients of the Marylen Mann Leadership Award for Creativity and Excellence. OASIS at the Library was developed to reach a broader, more diverse audience of mature adults, according to Shawna Yaley, Executive Director, San Diego OASIS.
"We knew there were a lot of adults who wanted to attend classes and activities but may not have been aware of or realized the extent of our programming, or may have had transportation issues," said Yaley. "By partnering with libraries throughout the greater San Diego area, we're going to where the people are."
