Children’s
Librarian Mary reported that story time and leap activities are well attended. She attended the CKLS summer library program
workshop in Hunter. This year’s theme
is: EVERY HERO HAS A STORY. Teen advisory boards are being organized at various
libraries to help with programs and provide suggestions for books, movies,
activities, etc. Mary is interested in
establishing a teen advisory board to organize and help with programs and
provide input. She presented various ideas on how this board would be
structured, qualifications and guidelines.
See the attached sheet containing a mission statement, qualifications
and guidelines. Mary got approval for a program grant from CKLS and will ask
FLCL for a $200 match.
Director
Nancy reported that we received the first installment of $19,000 from the City
of Lincoln. In addition the City also included the $750 for limestone repair. Half
of the State Library aid money of $200 has been received. Thanks go to Jerry
and Anne for hanging the historical pictures. KEY OFFICE sent a renewal
maintenance contract for the copier for $279.11, the same price as 2014. The
Lincoln County Tourism coalition is printing a new brochure. It will cost $90 for the library to be
included. Nancy presented a resolution to change the residency requirement of
board members using the eastern 2/3 of Lincoln County. Game Day will be
Wednesday, March 18 from 2-5pm during spring break. Fliers will be distributed

addition has a bad ballast and RT has ordered a replacement. Nancy would like
to ask the FLCL to finance a printer for the microfilm reader.
