TIGARD LIBRARY BOARD
January 14, 1993
MINUTES
Call to Order: 7:05 p.m., Board member Jeri Cundiff presiding.
Roll Call: Jeri Cundiff, Yvonne Burgess, Marilyn Hartell, Carl Kostol, Kathy
Davis
Guest: Liz Newton
Reports: Monthly Report was summarized by Library Director. Library is
exploring ways to eliminate or reduce repetitive stress injuries.
Inclement weather procedure has been implemented. Indoor Park
has a new home at St. Anthony's Church. Volunteer hours strong
even through the holidays.
Friends of the Library: Burgess stated that the combined income
from the Holiday Book Sale and Entertainment '93 books was
$1 ,045.
Cooperative Library Advisory Board: Meeting focused on
informational materials for upcoming WCCLS levy. It was decided
to update the existing fliers from the 1990 levy rather than develop
new ones. CLAB was followed by People for Libraries meeting, a
PAC organized to disseminate campaign literature.
Young Adult Librarian: Re-opened recruitment will run from January 16, through
February 1. Position is being offered at full-time in hopes of
attracting a broader pool of applicants.
WCCLS Lew: Options for raising money to pay for the printing and mailing of
informational fliers in support of the WCCLS levy were discussed.
Both the Board and representatives of FOL will give their support to
the fund raising efforts. The Board preferred to maintain the libraries
high profile in the community by continuing to keep service items in
the media and making general visits to community groups rather
than "campaigning" for the levy specifically via door-to-door visits, a
speakers bureau, etc. Levy will be on the March mail-in ballot.
Planning Committee: Hartell reported that the planning committee has met four times
around the issue of 'Determining the Library needs of the
Community.' The group has addressed the issues of: What do we
need to know? What questions should be asked to get useful
answers? Who can we talk to? How can we talk to them? At the
next meeting, the group will assign responsibility for collecting this
information and examine some selected demographic data. Davis
gave an over-view of the seven step planning process that the
committee hopes to work through during the next year.
Open House: The Open House for Seniors will be held at the library on January 29
from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Library staff will be available to give
tours and computer demonstrations as well as issue library cards.
The library is closed to the public at this time. A shuttle bus has
been arranged to provide ongoing pick up and delivery of
Summerfield and King City libraries. Information about the open
house will appear in the Tigard Times, Oregonian, and the Regal
Courier.
Adjournment: 8:25 p.m.
Respectfully Submitted,
Kathy L. Davis
Library Director
