Sallie Logan Public Library Board of Trustees met June 1.

Here is the minutes provided by the Board:

Victor Harris called the meeting to order at 6:30 p.m.

Members Present: Sara Faye Marten, Bill Center, Jan Kerr, Jeanne Goforth, Vic Harris, and Don Gladden

Members Absent: Debbie Tindall and Debbie Martin

Visitors Present: None

Staff Present: Loretta Broomfield, Library Director

Minutes: Minutes from the previous meeting were reviewed. Motion made by Bill Center to accept the minutes with a second by Don Gladden. All approved. Motion carried.

Financial Report: Reviewed and discussed.

Statistical Review: It was noted at the previous meeting that our “SAM” program has been incorrectly reporting the in-house computer use for years. The number is actually significantly lower each month than what SAM had been reporting. Loretta was able to generate revised figures for the last year and provided a report showing both the numbers originally reported and the revised, accurate numbers. On average, the originally reported numbers (3,553) are a little more than half of the actual numbers (6,093).

New Business: The Prevailing Wage Ordinance was customized from a template provided on the Administrative Ready Reference website. It was presented to the board and it was pointed out that the new list of prevailing wages was just published this week. The ordinance must be signed by the board treasurer who happened to be absent from the meeting. (Treasurer, Debbie Martin did sign the Prevailing Wage Ordinance the following week as presented and approved). Jeanne Goforth made a motion to accept the Prevailing Wage Ordinance as presented. This was seconded by Bill Center. Majority vote yes, with one abstention. Motion carried.

Old Business: None

Committee Reports:

Finance Committee: Nothing.

Building and Grounds: Nothing.

Personnel: Nothing.

Long Range Goals: The Long Range Planning Committee will meet at 1:00 on Tuesday, June 27.

Library Director’s Report: Shirley Krienert resigned from the board. Three individuals have expressed an interest in serving. Registration for summer reading program is underway. The library received 2,000 NASA approved sunglasses to distribute for the August 21st total solar eclipse. Several eclipse programs are planned. Loretta will attend Director’s University June 5-8 in Springfield.

Trustee Comments: Nothing

Meeting adjourned at 7:30.
