LINCOLN CARNEGIE LIBRARY BOARD OF
TRUSTEES
NOVEMBER 10, 2015
MEMBERS
PRESENT: Kathy Moss, Anne Grace, Karen
Jeffers, Patrisha Street, Sunnie McBride, Lynne Metz
STAFF
PRESENT: Nancy Jensen
Kathy opened
the meeting. Anne moved to approve the
minutes of October 13, 2015, and Karen seconded the motion. The minutes were approved.
Nancy gave
the children’s report for Mary. Story
time is averaging 15 children per week and last week there were 27. Mary has been making pictured dividers for
the non-fiction section so that the children can more easily identify the
subject matter. A game day is scheduled
during Christmas break on Wednesday, December 30th. The TAB meeting is next week and Mary has
advised them of the movie night restrictions by the board.
Nancy’s
report included correcting the AT&T bill which will result in a
refund. The city workers closed off two
outside electrical outlets and put a lock on the third one, put locks on the
air conditioner switches and outside water hydrants, and changed out the smoke
detector batteries. Since it is dark
earlier, we aren’t having kids hanging around after hours. Three board members
are registered for the trustee meeting in Beloit on November 17. The DVD Swap sent our first round on November
2 and half of them were checked out by the end of the day. The Mobile Pyramid
display is here and included a really nice free metal book cart. Nancy and Mary attended a Marketing workshop
and got ideas for marketing projects.
Mary is going to talk with the TAB about helping with the 3D printer
when it is here. A training session will
be scheduled so some of them and we can learn how to run the machine.
The Library
will be closed November 11, Veterans Day and November 26, Thanksgiving.
Lynne moved
to approve the bills, with Patrisha seconding the motion. The motion carried.
Anne moved
to adjourn the meeting, with Sunnie seconding the motion. The next meeting will be Tuesday, December 8
at 5:15pm.
Respectfully
submitted,
Lynne Metz,
Secretary
