The meeting was called to order by the President, Lloyd Spawn. The minutes
of the previous meeting were approved as distributed. There was no corres-
pondence.
The monthly statistical report for January, 1984, was approved as distributed.
The format remains the same. When our Apple IIe computers - now in the pro-
cess of being purchased - arrive, we plan to build this data, both retrospec-
tive and current, into a data base and develop programming to make it avail-
able in a more flexible and comparitive mode. We think we can make it more
useful for board members and staff members. The Apple IIe equipment should
arrive in March.
The City/County library contracts have been revamped by the County Commissioners
incorporating most of the suggestions of the various library directors and
library boards in the county. They will be presented to the Fort Collins City
Council at their February 21 meeting.
Lloyd Spawn and Jane Davis reported that they attended the Project RECAP
public meeting on January 26 and presented to them the library first floor
remodel project. They were very receptive to this project and requested cost
figures. Jane Davis presented cost figures to the Project RECAP committee at
their February 2 meeting. Project RECAP classified the library remodeling as
"necessary," the designation between "essential" and "desirable." At this
time funds are available for "essential" improvements only.
Robert Holzfaster reported that new stair carpeting will be installed some-
time in March, that the three new Sperry computer terminals purchased late in
1983 had been installed and that the new energy monitoring equipment installed
in the library building by the City's facilities staff would have to be made
compatible with the 3-M theft detection system.
The meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
Jane B. Davis, Secretary Pro-tem
