<br /> <br />Staffing <br />A new part-time assistant joined the upstairs staff, and a part-time youth services staff started <br />in the Children’s Room. Interviews are ongoing. <br /> <br />IT/Technology <br />Extra precautionary security implementations have caused some disruptions. The public <br />wireless went out for a week which left the public access computers out of use. The app that <br />unlocks/locks the doors was not working on the Wi-Fi. <br /> <br />CLAMS <br />The Library Director is attending Zoom meetings in April and May to discuss the balancing and <br />maintaining of the library’s daily functions, on a state and national level. The next meeting is <br />th <br />May 28 at the Centerville Library, to see where we are at operationally, and the status of the <br />reserves. The FY26 budget outcome was positive, and we are maintaining FY25 numbers. <br /> <br />Building and Grounds <br />The Library Director met with the DPW to review various requests on the docket. The <br />children’s garden area will require the most immediate attention. The fence will be taken down <br />and all bricks will be removed. All vegetation will be mowed, the tree will remain, grass will be <br />planted, and the benches will temporarily relocate. <br /> <br />The sidewalk will remain from the children’s door for walkability and safety. The fire egress will <br />require pruning and cutting back trees. The trellises are going to be power washed, and the <br />siding will be re-shingled. There will be some raised flower beds or a vegetable garden the kids <br />can help plant. The statue will be relocated to the far side of the parking lot. <br /> <br />The Friends asked if they could donate a fence. The Friends will purchase the shed. The shed <br />will be supported with concrete blocks. <br /> <br />The picnic table area is overgrown with dead plants. Mobile planters are more manageable <br />and can provide seasonable landscapes. Adirondack chairs may be a nice addition. <br /> <br />The circulation desk is still a priority item, but the Friends would like to see the Children’s <br />Room completed. <br /> <br />Children’s Room <br />The Children’s Room will be closed for a week for new carpeting and painting. That would also <br />be the time to swap out furniture. The Library Director would like more mobile shelving. New <br />tables and area rugs will be purchased for the program room. <br /> <br />TRUSTEE CHAIR’S REPORT <br />MOTION: <br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />
