August Stats are higher than last August. This keeps with the trend of increased business. Stats
were fairly high considering Summer Reading programing and CLASS were not in session.
LIBRARIAN'S REPORT:
Joe showed the Board a copy of the Library calendar of events. He also went over a copy of the
survey we are taking right. now. Closed November 11th for StaffIn Service Training Day. We
will meet at Rolling Hills this year. Melanie has written a grant to CKLS to request technology
equipment for demonstration and training. The remodel is scheduled to start on September
30th. They will probably start adding the electrical and dividing up the room. Staff Breakfast on
Thursday. CLASS registration continues to go well. We had a part time person resign in Adult Circ
so we are combining that position with another part time position to make a full time position.

Librarian's Report
I know it must seem like you just read the latest update on library activities and that's because I
just had trouble getting the last report in the mail. Overall, not much has changed since that
report.
We are back at the drawing board planning our staff in-service training day. It is scheduled for
November 11 at Rolling Hills. After a morning speaker, we want staffto engage in departmental
and open discussions on the current uses of work time and to be open to identifying tasks and
activities to set aside in order to make room for new things that will shape and define our future
as a public library service. That was a long sentence. Basically, we need to keep an open mind
toward evolving, but with tight budgets and the same size of staff, something has to give. Weare
trying to plan the best forum for this discussion in our limited time.
Our plan is to follow up our staff day with a major break from major "new" initiatives from
January through April 2011. We'll use that time for reflection, envisioning and planning. Being a
new approach, this time-out is in itself a planned project. But, we think we need a short break
from constant improvements or what has been called the acceleration trap.
No, we haven't purchased the new van yet. I'll present it as a proposal at the Board meeting and
ask for your input, discussion and approval for the expenditure. I saw a two page ad in the new
issue of Inc. magazine where it was labeled as the North American truck of the year. Staff
continues to think this vehicle is the one.
Construction continues. We are in our third week and they are making steady progress. The
electricians are onsite installing conduit and the electric floor boxes. The Cheney crew are
working on the new meeting rooms this week. Our custodian Larry has been working steadily at
taking down or shifting old shelves and furniture. There have been no new problems and I'll try
to give you an update and reminder of the features of this small remodel. It has been noisy and
the public and staffhave been tolerant.

Speaking of the public, we have the results ofa user survey we conducted in September. We'll
get you copies of the results. It's a document worth studying and discussing what it means. Dept.
Heads reviewed results on Monday, but I think we'll come back to it with more interpretation,
especially questions dealing with the use of technology. There were also 14 pages of comments
and suggestions on every aspect of our service. It's a good process to listen and learn what
people think, as well as to give users an opportunity for input.
Day to day business continues to be good. Circulation is about on pace with September. CLASS
is filling up our meeting/program rooms with interesting learning opportunities nearly every day.
This.is their busy season and Lisa has already begun to form the spring semester. Let us know if
you have ideas that might work for CLASS. If you are interested, others probably are also.
It looks like another full agenda with policy discussions, the user survey and the van.
