$500 has been received for the George Anne Miller Memorial Fund.
C.L.A.B.: Contracts for WILI system and member reimbursement have been
discussed and revised. Draft of revisions will be available next month.
Levy Review: Board examined precinct map and noted that the two precincts in Tigard that did
not pass the levy corresponded with areas identified by the City Survey as being
the source of negative library comments. Board suggested that they meet with
CIT group for that area and use that vehicle to invite residents to an"open house*
to be scheduled this Fall.
Budget Update: Reviewed proposed budget including expansion request. Members had
suggestions for design modifications to obtain more square footage for the dollars
available. Unanimous approval was given for dedication of the reading room
portion of the expansion to Mary Margaret Pruett.
Library as a Revenue Source: Literature representing the pros and cons regarding the topic of
fees in libraries was summarized by the Director. Using this information as,
background, the Board intends to create a list of points to be considered by any
committee established to address the issue of library fees. This list will be
presented to the C.L.A.B.
Role Setting: Forced choice exercise was explained by Board member Hartzell.
Open House: Thanks were extended to Kostol and Burgess for conducting tours during the
library's open house for City employees. Hartzell suggested scheduling an open
house for each new CIT group once established. In lieu of the regular August
Board meeting, a follow up open house for seniors will be scheduled on a date
to be announced. All members expressed interest in participating in this event.
