The meeting was called to order by the Chairperson, Christine Kneeland.
The minutes of the May meeting were approved as distributed. The
statistical report for June was received. There was no correspondence.
Jane Davis reported that Polly Walters had been reappointed as a full
member of the Board to serve until July 1, 1992, and Dan Smith had been
reappointed an alternate through July 1, 1990. The membership of the Board
will, therefore, remain the same through the coming Board year.
Ms. Davis reported that the library budget for 1989 would include one time
funding for a new telephone system but no other increases. She also
reported that Jackie Mart, Program Administrator for Adult Services, had
resigned to accept directorship of the library at Colorado Technical
College in Colorado Springs. The position is being advertised and should
be filled by the middle of August.
The group discussed, at length, the latest draft of the library study.
They defined four possible service levels and voted to support the highest
level of library service as the one most desirable for this community.
They also reviewed the draft and decided the order in which the material
should be presented.
Jane Davis will meet on July 15 with Nancy Knepel from the High Plains
Regional Library Services System who is the consultant working with the
group on the study to outline the changes. The Board would like to have
the next draft - both printed and on disk - for a meeting the week of July
18. Jane Davis will find out when the material will be ready and contact
Christine Kneeland.
The Board voted to table discussion of the Friends' Endowment.
There was no additional business and the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
Jane B. Davis
