Library Board of Trustees <br /> Meeting Minutes <br /> May 9, 2013 <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br /> VII. New Business <br /> A. Superior Town Center (Sandy Pennington or Debra Williams) <br /> This item was recently publicized in the local news; however, discussion on this issue is <br /> very premature and has been tabled indefinitely. The Board is interested in hearing <br /> about the plans, which may include a library, when Superior is ready to discuss them. <br /> VIII. Ongoing Business <br /> A. E-books, Libraries and the Publishing Industry (Jeannie Schuman) <br /> 1) Trustee Role in Educating the Public <br /> Jeannie had invited people, contacted during the Library's Open House during <br /> National Library Week, to come speak about the issue at a Board meeting. Five <br /> people signed up. Jeannie also noted that the public is still largely unaware of the <br /> issue, and is unsure of how the Board can help educate the public. After <br /> discussion, Shari noted that the Board doesn't have enough information to make a <br /> decision and would like Library staff to provide some direction. It was noted that <br /> the big publishers are moving in the right direction, so perhaps there is no need for <br /> the Board's action on this issue. <br /> B. On The Same Page <br /> Becky revealed the title, which will be officially announced during `Art Night Out' in <br /> Lafayette on June 21. She noted that programming has been set that tie in with the <br /> themes of the book. There will also be several book discussions. <br /> C. iHelp and the Youth Advisory Board <br /> Hank contacted the YAB about recruiting teen volunteers for the iHelp program. The <br /> group disbands over the summer, so he and the YAB will reevaluate at the end of the <br /> summer. <br /> D. Policy Manual <br /> 1) Distribute updated TOC and Conflict of Interest <br /> Karen distributed the new pages. The policy manual review that began in 2011 is <br /> now complete. <br /> IX. Director's Report <br /> A. Customer Service Survey <br /> In March, the Library conducted a follow-up survey to the one completed a year ago. In <br /> addition to the same five questions, four new questions were added to help assess the <br /> effectiveness of new programming initiatives and the automated return system. <br /> Overall, the Library received 97%positive responses, up from 95%in 2012. Staff is now <br /> working to address some of the `negative' comments, such as adding another book group <br /> to address unmet demand. <br />
