SUBJECT: JOINT ISSUES COMMITTEE — ADDITIONAL PROPOSED LIBRARYSERVICES TO SUPERIOR DATE: JANUARY 29, 2021 PAGE 2 OF 3 Library staff will save duplicates that have been removed from the collection and make them available at the community center. There is no budgetary impact to this service. Family Storytime — once a week ■ A Library Associate will deliver a storytime before Library hours each Tuesday morning. This will not impact Library staffing needs, as this would have been off -desk time for the Associate. Teen Book Share — once a month ■ The Teen Librarian will spend one hour on one late -start Wednesday morning each month with the teens (or another time slot, depending on BVSD school schedules). Again, this service doesn't impact staffing, as this is off -desk time for the Teen Librarian and a minimal time commitment. Adult Programming — once a quarter ■ The Adult Services Department will decide which programs can be delivered in Superior. Staff had been looking for an alternate venue and this appears to be a good option for some adult programming. If the Joint issues Committee supports moving forward to provide these service changes, Louisville and Superior staff can prepare an amendment to the IGA reflecting such changes to discuss further with the Superior Town Board and Louisville City Council. FISCAL IMPACT: Initially this increase in service will have little discernable fiscal impact. Staff will be redeployed in low -impact ways to ensure delivery of these services. Library Page staff will deliver materials for an approximate 6 hours each week. In 2021 that will amount to about $3800. If demand for holds delivered to the remote lockers increases beyond the capacity of Library staff, the Flatirons Library Consortium courier will deliver materials to the Superior location. The 2021 cost for three stops each week is $6750, which would require additional discussion and consideration as well as possible changes to the proposed IGA. PROGRAM/SUB-PROGRAM IMPACT: City Council approval of increased services to Superior supports the Library and Museum Services goals of increased circulation and circulation per capita, and increased average attendance per program. RECOMMENDATION: Should the Joint Issues Committee recommend the Louisville Public Library provide the proposed additional library services to Superior residents, staffs recommend preparing an IGA amendment consistent with the scope of work outlined above.
