Director’s Report submitted by: Lara Lorenzi October 2018 Library Board of Trustees Meeting Informational Updates:

• Christine Nicholson and I will be attending the Pennsylvania Library Association Annual Conference that will take place on Sunday October 14th through Wednesday October 17th. The conference will take place in Harrisburg. This is a wonderful opportunity for continuing education, networking with colleagues and meeting various vendors.

• TixKeeper is up and running for our museum passes. There have been a few minor kinks but they have been worked out. The hotspots will go live on TixKeeper starting October 1st.

• Personnel Updates:

• We have hired a new part time circulation assistant. We should now be up to full staffing levels. Facilities Update:

• Routine maintenance requests have been completed. • PASD was out to fix an issue with the HVAC- one of the rtu’s was not working properly. The issues has been resolved

and the units are working properly. • PASD has been out to fix issues with one of the toilets on the upper level- the handle mechanism had not been working

properly. • We had the annual fire and life safety inspection done by the Chester County Department of Emergency Management.

I have forwarded on the report to PASD. They are working to help resolve some of the issues. The library is also taking steps to ensure we are addressing the issues that have been mentioned in the report. The report is in the board packet.

Chester County Library System Updates:

• I am a new member of the Funding Formula Committee for the System Advisory Council (SAC), we will be meeting throughout the year to discuss potential changes, updates, etc. to the current funding formula for county aid.

• I will also be working on the SAC membership agreement. We drafted a new agreement a few years ago but we need to revisit it to see if it still is feasible, discuss with new directors and work on getting the updates approved in the next year.

• The next joint SAC/DLM meeting will take place on November 13th at the Oxford Library. Computer updates:

• Next computer lease update will occur in December 2018. We are looking at computer usage to see if we want to reduce the number of computers we have as part of the right sizing program with CCLS.

State Updates: • None at this time.
