This study aims to develop a mid-to-long-term strategic plan for public libraries in local governments by analyzing perceptions of local residents and librarians. The findings emphasize the need to expand library services in underserved areas to improve accessibility and ensure regional equity. Enhancing operational efficiency requires systematic improvements, the expansion of professional staffing, and the establishment of a central hub library. Key priorities include acquiring new books and electronic resources, selecting specialized themes based on user needs, and strengthening promotional efforts. Furthermore, to reinforce the library’s social role, it is essential to provide tailored information services across all life stages and expand its function as a hub for learning, culture, and information.
