LibraryBoard | 2008-02-13 | 4 | Page 4 of 4 Minutes of the Alameda Free Library Board Meeting February 13, 2008 LIBRARY BOARD COMMUNICATIONS There were no communications from the Board. DIRECTOR'S COMMENTS The "Paws to Read" program has been a great success. Director Chisaki passed around pictures of the children reading to the dogs. There are discussions currently going on to bring the program in for an additional 6-week period. Tutor.com statistics show very high usage of the on-line homework help program. Chisaki read some of the user comments for the Board. Chipman Middle School had "Bring a Parent to School Day" and Teen Librarian, Karin Lundstrom, had a table at the event. She talked to a lot of parents and pushed Tutor.com, handed out booklists and met face to face with some of the Library's problem kids and their parents. All in all it was a very positive experience. Chisaki talked a little about Day in the District that she had attended along with Marc Lambert, Honora Murphy and Rebecca Kozak on January 25th. The meeting rooms have been very busy lately, and there have been several incidents of meeting room users taking the café chairs and tables to use. Chisaki requested an okay from the Board to post meeting room use rules in the rooms which will include direction to not take the café furniture. The Board was in favor of this request and urged Chisaki to go ahead with the posting. ADJOURNMENT President Krongold asked for a motion to adjourn the meeting at 8:38 p.m. Member Belikove so moved; Vice President Butter seconded the motion which carried by a 4-0 vote. Respectfully submitted, Jane Chisaki Library Director and Secretary to the Library Board This meeting's agenda was posted 72 hours in advance in accordance with the Brown Act. | LibraryBoard/2008-02-13.pdf |
