Description

10-29-19 Library Advisory Committee Meeting

A

Didn't start for Robert, it's no attention and start to me. So it's PI I go to.

A

Today's meeting October 29th for.

A

Me call me ordinary one piece: technically I've mended legions to the flag of.

B

A

C

States of America.

A

Stands one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

D

Coming that it is a difficult job when you're, not here mine,.

A

D

A

Care either side of it. You know.

A

We have communications and announcements.

E

I guess an announcement we're getting ready for the next year of meeting and we need to submit another form to city manager for the frequency of the light to know. We still wanted to combine the November and December meeting.

E

We can put that in there June July. We combined during the seminar in life I, doesn't need signatures.

E

We had last year and.

E

Oh in your packet, you have a list. The.

B

Checklist for the cypresses.

E

Nearby can answer any I know the roof issue with it, the AC and NPR microphone that we've taken care of that. It is something on the checklist for the custodians anytime. We have a an event, but we're gonna go ahead and do some retraining, so they know how to turn it on and to check that everything is working.

E

Sponsoring the event they do it, if not, the custodian will check it if somebody's coming and using the room with.

F

This is really functional for one city, one book and.

E

That was at the beginning.

F

E

And well the of the AC also she was instructed to turn it on early on during.

C

The day and.

E

She just couldn't go it. She just didn't know how to do it, so we had to call Public Works that day and.

D

They did come in. You know how to do yes,.

E

They do but we're going to conduct the retraining of them and the librarians, who usually host the events to make sure that they do. Okay.

D

F

It wasn't working right the day, but it wasn't. Angie and I were here.

C

F

Because the AC wasn't working so.

E

They were told they needed to to turn it on manually. Public Works turned it off because they do want it freezing overnight, so they were supposed to tributing as they came in so human. It was embarrassing.

F

Oh, thank you. No.

E

F

About dr. Cantu is very famous writer and then the mic didn't work and then I tried to get another might think it was worse at the first one, so she's yeah.

C

F

E

No no I understand I, understand.

D

So when did that training going as.

E

Soon, as possible, Rick's already trained some of them he's doing that. That's the expert on that and we have some of the students that are out so as soon as they come back in.

E

Probably soon after our Halloween event.

D

A

The window that's broken in the teen area. Now.

E

And you talk to the maintenance of it and they cannot find so we're gonna reach up purchasing to see if they can find us a vendor. Sami.

B

We're outside like that that informatica we're going.

E

Well and then send them the bill.

E

Over 20 years.

C

B

We're gonna per per frame. You.

E

Once we have one going to the back load of stuff entrance and then there's another one upstairs.

E

Well, yeah we're just gonna get up on you system, because this one's gone out or not listening.

E

E

G

E

The bumpers somebody didn't run into it and dented it a little bit so we need we need to post the front of it like we did over here. So we need to get Public Works to reinstall it for us.

E

We caught puzzlers for every selfie.

E

The whole spectrum.

E

So they've been they've been fit. You just need to repaint, so they'd rather look.

D

E

There's an order they're here, the server is here, makes thirsty, but we didn't put it in there because I, just like with.

C

E

Makes perfect a we're? Gonna have walkthroughs by several vendors. We're gonna, give us a quote for installation, so all of our past ins already set up within the camera system with a city, so the rest of the branches are getting.

A

E

Right now it's fully functioning. We need to give it a nice little remodeling. We have installed a fencing on top of the rock off. That's where the Burke's only narrow. It's like a burglar text.

C

E

It was efficient, so we power washers we've done that we need to get the rubber mulch now to replace the rubber.

A

E

So I think that's the only thing.

C

E

F

F

E

Certain dolt, it is not a good condition, we're going to refund the cost and do not have the money for it. We have talked to the building department to see them would help us pay for it and I think they're moving. So it might.

F

E

The brief I breathe we're going to get a remodel.

F

So we're gonna be just a building just for the library, well, I'm hoping.

E

I mean I've heard, but yet it's called building or building department.

F

The city told me: no, it's.

E

In there it's so under the building, the apartment, building and planning is in there. So.

F

So they're movies.

E

I don't know when or where I know that they're there looking at other buildings so that they can have a one-stop shop and with plenty of parking. Yes, there's not a lot of partner. That's.

F

Good for us! Yes, because we get more more.

E

Ways more space: she will go in there and we do it.

F

C

Have something.

F

More accessible to the downtown area.

E

We still get a lot of.

E

Handle on them they may be made they're going there. They usually the computer.

F

H

What we're here to work out but I think.

E

Immediately, yes, it would help them your room for that. Yes, I'm thinking, we used to have the whole building before we moved over here, including the Technical Services, which was not public use, but if they allow us we'll.

F

Have the whole I'm thinking going to be good? This we hosted something at the IBC downtown and we could invite some good some people from the Bethany house. It was you know many talk about awareness.

H

F

It was good because he it was walking distance, so he just across by yes and.

B

E

E

In each hand, dryers paper not so much because the kids up them and.

A

Make it work break your world, they throw.

E

It in the toilet and I mean what we stop having that one that has been an issue since we moved in, we had utilities and they recommended doing doing this. Just sealing off some of the commode sealing off a pipe that goes to the outside. It gets some exhaust and just treating it every week and we'll see it gets.

C

E

Sometimes and then it comes back so we need to keep on top of it that custodians go once twice a week to ICP and.

C

E

Just let's say they go on on Mondays: do it every Monday and see how that's going on, but that's what utility suggested we do so.

F

It's what is the address.

E

F

220 west 120 West, so that's a meter high school, no hundreds.

A

B

A

E

Where the inner inner city poulos that's one of the buildings, the next building is the library.

A

You know the energy transportation so close by again.

I

Like The Innocents weather and by such interventions on the street room.

E

She has classes there when they're, not using the computer lab. That's where.

F

They will see them going back to the bruni blessa. That would be a good to offer. Yes,.

E

Right now, Jonathan alter CSL classes and then there's a little tiny room. He has at most ten people.

F

Yeah some some programs for the downtown area I know.

F

It was because they.

F

Don't have cards anymore.

F

So now we think Oh already.

F

A

E

Your packet are the base, the quarterly program horse with a list of programs that we provide during.

B

E

Addition to that they go over the AR question. Yes, we.

A

Know so questions.

E

Know during the summer we suspend story time because we have the summer reading program. Oh another special program. But if you look at, we start up again in September and we have 12. So during the summer we suspended that could have been a special one that they have, or maybe a daycare that comes in.

F

E

G

B

F

Risk or because you're in church of the ISD librarians are I.

A

Don't get it like Jackie sent me.

E

That school does send it out to the teachers, but it depends on the school. So I guess we can send it to the librarians and maybe make insurance.

I

You continue to our offices. I think I had mentioned that last time, but not probably also the PA what they give the management information opposite. You ISD mmm-hmm, because we have the capability.

F

I think we need more publicity yeah, and if this is this, if they're going to do it for us.

I

They can send it to them.

I

B

E

F

G

I

E

C

D

H

Of course, that would be on their part as well for them to take care of it, but I know, but.

E

Required of their students.

F

E

She takes care of I, think preteen and teens and Priscilla Garcia does.

F

The children's, and so you give free copy paper, I.

E

Don't think it's that many not.

C

E

Yes, no, we haven't, we haven't booked anything I. Think.

F

E

Usually we go to like big festivals like the National Night, Out or health festival, but we used to book it with schools and.

D

Whatever is comes because.

E

Nobody wanted just computers, one date if they want it like to do on it, books to check out so.

C

E

In half of it, half of.

C

It um out half.

E

Of it is folks on the other, one is digital computers, so then we want to start advertising it. It's fully running right now. I think that it was.

Don't think they're calling me, because maybe they don't know was there, but advertise maybe make a flyer like this, like these flowers, everywhere a virus and put the book.

D

F

Necessary go all over to just to the extreme or.

A

C

And you know concept the schools.

A

To say, you know well I'd.

E

Like to be that by point money, because he's also just here at the teen area, so we'd have to.
