President DePiero commented that we always love when the retirees are present at Board meetings it is great.

Public Comment: There was no public comment.

Report of the Board President: President DePiero stated he has no report for the month.

Report of the Chief Executive Officer: Chief Executive Officer Strobel stated we had a successful zoo event celebrating one hundred years. We had a wonderful turnout from staff with many reporting they had an enjoyable time. This was a wonderful opportunity for staff to get together and it was a great morale boost. Chief Executive Strobel thanked the Board for their support of this event.

Chief Executive Officer Strobel mentioned she returned yesterday from the first in person Annual American Library Association (ALA) Conference since 2019. It was great to see colleagues from around the country. She congratulated Chief Rich for doing an excellent presentation yesterday at the conference, and Cathy Schultis, Branch Manager, CCPL Berea Branch also presented at the conference. Chief Executive Strobel stated we were well represented nationally, and proud of their efforts and recognition brought to the system.

Chief Executive Officer Strobel stated the Urban Libraries Council (ULC) Conference came to Cleveland last month, and many of us participated in that. She stated she had a chance to do a presentation with Steve Potash, CEO OverDrive at the conference and she took some Directors from around the country to see CCPL’s new Bay Village Branch.

Chief Executive Officer Strobel stated we continue to work on a number of major projects; Facilities Master Plan, Strategic Planning for the Foundation, search for an Integrated Library System (ILS), and the new CCPL Brooklyn Branch. She will provide an update on the second quarter activities around our strategic plan in July.

Chief Executive Officer welcomed Director Barden who will present on Material Selection and Intellectual Freedom which supports the policies presented at the Policy, Planning & External Relations (PPER) Committee meeting prior to this meeting.

Director Barden stated the mission of the Cuyahoga County Public Library is to empower individuals and communities by providing opportunities for all to read, learn, create, and connect. He stated Wendy Bartlett, Collection Development & ACQ Manager, supports this mission and the goals of the strategic plan by purchasing appropriate materials for the collection.

Director Barden stated this team relies on the Materials Selection and Access Policy as well as the Intellectual Freedom Policies adopted by the Board to support and potentially defend their selections.

Director Barden stated Cuyahoga County Public Library serves a diverse population across forty-seven communities including persons of various ages, races, cultures, spiritual beliefs, genders, lifestyles, sexual orientation, and physical and mental abilities. The needs, interests, and points of view of these populations reflect the variety inherent in contemporary society.

Director Barden stated to meet the needs of this diverse and changing population, collection development librarians consider such factors as neighborhood and county demographics. Collection development librarians communicate with branch staff and customers by inviting suggestions for purchase, monitoring

2

179 | P a g e

requests, and evaluating the diversity of the collections on an ongoing basis to ensure that they reflect the demographics of the communities they serve. Director Barden stated to support an informed public, the collection reflects diverse points of view, and may include materials that some members of the public may find controversial in nature. He stated the interests and beliefs of one group are not placed above those of another. Director Barden stated while budgetary and space considerations limit material selection for all libraries, CCPL assumes a responsibility to provide free and equitable access to a broad range of materials that reflect diverse points of view. Director Barden stated selection decisions are based primarily on professional and commercial reviews; popularity and community demand are among the major criteria for selection. He stated under a statewide cooperative program, CCPL can obtain materials owned by other public and academic libraries. Director Barden stated each branch provides material which promotes continuing independent learning across age levels. The library has separate collections for teens ages twelve through eighteen, and children ages birth through eleven years. He stated the library does not act in loco parentis regarding selection of library materials. Instead, the library encourages caregivers to have an active and responsible role in their children’s selection of materials. Director Barden stated should a customer have concerns about a title in the collection, staff are encouraged, if they are comfortable, to have a conversation with them about CCPL’s philosophy regarding building a diverse collection that has something for everyone in our community. Should a staff person not feel comfortable, we encourage them to contact the person in charge of their branch at the time to have that conversation. Director Barden reiterated that we provide a wide range of materials to serve our diverse customer base and that we realize not every item will be right for every customer. Director Barden stated if a customer is still upset, we provide a mechanism for them to share their concerns and have the material reevaluated. The customer can fill out a Customer Statement of Concern About Library Material. Chief Executive Officer Strobel mentioned a quote from librarian Jo Godwin; “A truly great library contains something in it to offend everyone.” President DePiero and Chief Executive Officer Strobel thanked Director Barden for a great presentation. Human Resources Report: Human Resources Chief Good summarized the HR report. There are twenty-four (24) new hires, three (3) rehires, four (4) resignations, two (2) promotions, one (1) BSAl to BSAll, five (5) added second rate, and three (3) retirees. 03-06/2022 Trustee Davies moved approval, seconded by Trustee Leonard.

(See pages 188-195) Finance Committee Report: Finance Chair Davies stated Finance Committee did not meet today and Chief Morgan will give a full financial report.

180 | P a g e

Chief Morgan stated we received a small amount for our 2.5 mills levy in the amount of $70. With this settlement we have received 54% of our budget for the year. Chief Morgan stated we will monitor the second half advances and settlement to see if we will receive more than what we have budgeted for the year. Chief Morgan stated in the Public Library Fund (PLF) our April distribution for the PLF was $3,201,827. Based on a comparison to last year, this distribution was larger than the amount received in May 2021. Our year-to-date comparisons are also more than last year. The amount received year-to-date is 47.9% of the budget. Chief Morgan stated fines and fees collected in April were less than what was collected last year. With going fine free in May, the amounts received was for fees only. The total of fines and fees collected this year does exceed the total amount collected last year. The amount collected for passport processing and photos exceeded what was collected last year for May. Chief Morgan stated the remainder of the revenue accounts are where we would expect them to be for the month of April. Chief Morgan stated the salaries and benefits accounts are within budget. Chief Morgan stated the library materials accounts reflect an overall expense of 52%. This is typical because of the larger expenditures in the beginning of the year. We have also encumbered funds to pay for preordered publications. Chief Morgan stated many of the other expense accounts show a larger percentage expensed and encumbered. This would account for standing order encumbrances for the year. (See Under FINANCE Investments - May Chief Morgan stated there were several purchases of investments for the month of May.

Summer Reading, Then and Now

At Cuyahoga County Public Library (CCPL) one of our strategic goals is to advance literacy and lifelong learning through innovative programs

and services that meet the diverse needs and interests of our communities. We aim to achieve that goal, in part, by supporting student success

through partnerships with families, school districts and other community agencies; and by providing out-of-school time (OST) experiences that

inspire curiosity and support educational outcomes. The OST experiences we provide during the summer months are critical because students risk

learning loss when they are away from school. It’s a phenomenon commonly referred to as “the summer slide.”

According to the American Library Association (ALA), libraries began holding summer reading programs back in the 1890s as a way to encourage

school children – particularly those in urban areas who were not needed to help out around the farm – to read during their summer vacation,

and to use their local library to develop the habit of reading. The ALA credits Ohio librarian Linda Eastman with the creation of the fi rst children’s

reading program in 1895. That program, which was called the Cleveland Children’s Library League, was a precursor to and model for summer reading

programs that later cropped up all over the world. Eastman started the League by distributing a list of book recommendations through local

schools who in turn encouraged students to get as far down the list as they could during summer vacation. Each year the number of participants in

the League grew, which eventually led to reading logs for children to keep track of the books they read.

A lot has changed in the past century or so, but many of the original aspects of summer reading programs remain the same. Participants still log

how much time they’ve spent reading (either on printed or online reading logs) and record which books they’ve read. So far this year, our summer

reading program participants have logged more than 107,500 hours of reading, earning prizes like free scoops of Mitchell’s Ice Cream (my personal

favorite), books and raffl e entries to win grand prizes provided by the Cleveland Monsters, Lake Erie Crushers, Playhouse Square and other

sponsors. The most popular titles among this year’s participants include some familiar favorites, like Dav Pilkey’s Dogman books, the Harry Potter

series (naturally) and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.

It’s always fun to see which books kids are reading each summer. I’m reminded of my own childhood favorites and how they inspired me to

become a librarian. It also reminds me that summer reading programs are important not just because they help build the reading skills that are the

foundation of all learning, but because books have a unique power to inspire. I hope all of our summer readers fi nd at least one book this summer

that inspires them, whether it’s to pursue a dream or simply to pick up another book.

Happy reading!

Seventeen participants came into the Gates Mills Branch to create their own summer screen-printed T-shirts. The participants were broken up into groups to peel the vinyl, place the vinyl on the boards and then peel the extra vinyl off the boards. Each participant made two T-shirts—one with a pair of aviator glasses and one that said

“Hello Summer” out of popsicle sticks.

Orange Branch BSL Supervisor Kate Merlene made a connection with a patron who moved to the country recently from India and wanted to know what kinds of services the library had to off er. The patron was surprised when Merlene asked her what part of India she was from. The two had a nice conversation and it turns out Merlene visited the area where the patron lived. Merlene gave the patron an overview of what CCPL had to off er and she was thrilled! A few days later, the patron came in with another new American and her three boys from Pakistan to acclimate them to the library. The mother was able to get referrals for ESOL classes, programming and all three kids checked out books with their new library cards.

Chagrin Falls/Gates Mills Branch Manager Maryann Penzvalto attended a “Lunch and Learn” event with the Chagrin Valley Chamber of Commerce on June 17 featuring a Mayor’s Roundtable with Chagrin Falls mayor Bill Tomko.

There was plenty of STEAM fun at the Mayfi eld and Richmond

branches in June! Six customers attended the virtual “3D Design Basics” program facilitated by BSA Allyson Filippi at the Mayfi eld branch where attendees learned the basics of the Tinkercad software and applied their skills to create a 3D printed keychain, as well as gaining more information on the 3D printing process at CCPL. BSL Robin Pandya hosted a screen-printing class at RCH. Eight attendees had fun weeding precut vinyl patterns and printing shirts, bags and tea towels with the CCPL 100th anniversary logo. The participants were glad to create a take home printed souvenir of the event.

Beachwood Branch Manager Amia Wheatley and Adult BSA Sarah Iammarino, along with Adult Librarian Supervisor Kate Merlene from the Orange Branch, presented a Virtual Book Buzz program on June 27. Each staff person presented 10 upcoming books that they liked on the CCPL Facebook Live page. Merlene moderated and everyone mentioned upcoming author events. So far, the online presentation has 297 views.

In honor of Pride Month, Maple Heights Branch Teen Services Librarian Elyssa Freedman created a beautiful display with book covers arranged in the color of the Pride fl ag. Many Maple Heights patrons have stopped to look and admire the display, with titles fl ying off the shelves by eager readers. One grandmother took the time to write and thank Freedman for the joy the display gave her granddaughters who “didn’t know there were that many books with ‘queer’ black people in it or writing it!”

South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch BSL-II Julie Gabb, BSL-I Carly Garinger, BSA-II Jamie Sedlacko, and Branch Manager Steve Haynie coordinated and led World Environment Day outdoors in the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Branch parking lot on June 4. South Euclid-Lyndhurst library workers taught children how to upcycle old paper into new paper sheets with a blender, water and screens. In addition, community partners hosted various nature/environment activities such as composting demonstrations with Rust Belt Riders, a bike obstacle course by Bike Cleveland, plant giveaways by Sustainable Cleveland, a Cuyahoga Valley National Park ranger meet and greet and an animal appearance from the Cleveland Metroparks’ EcoTracks vehicle. Over 140 attendees enjoyed this outdoor event!

On June 18, Branch Manager Ali Boyd led the Warrensville

Heights Branch’s Annual Juneteenth Celebration before a crowd of 51 customers. The event was a collaboration between the Friends of the Warrensville Library, Uplyff , Inc and library staff . It opened with jazz selections from Hashtag Virgo Swing Quartet and continued with arts, poetry and engaging discussions amongst the community participants focused on the history of struggles and triumphs of African Americans and also the infl uences of social media. One grandfather was alarmed at the things his 8-year-old granddaughter knew of social media and promised to take a more active role in her daily activities. It was a very touching moment. The historic event ended with the Warrensville Branch Chess Club joining in and a tournament commenced!

Bedford Branch BSL I Stephanie Johnson hosted nine teens for “Board Game Geeks” camp from June 6 – June 9. In addition to learning about the art of board game design, the teens also had the opportunity to design their own custom board game pieces in Tinkercad, which they incorporated into their board games.

Fourteen patriotic customers came to the Cricut Celebration Banners program on June 28 at the Brecksville Branch. BSA-II Noelle Tagliarini showed them how to produce ideas and how to use the Cricut to make banners for any celebration. Each participant got to make and take home a banner for the 4th of July with supplies provided by the Friends of the Brecksville Branch.

Garfi eld Heights Branch Adult BSA Emily Gaff ney and Children’s BSA Tameka Comer co-facilitated a screen-printing program for the quarterly “Families Innovate” session for 15 customers on June 18. Several families came to make summer-themed screen-printed tote bags. After they were done screen printing, staff helped participants make pom-pom accessories to decorate their bags.

Children’s BSL Kathy Roach hosted a STEM Math Puzzles program on June 29 at the Independence Branch. Activities included folding 3D shapes from pieces of paper, deciphering codes and creating their own code, creating patterned paper chains and bead bracelets and playing various math games from the Toy Collection. Eighteen students and parents enjoyed the various stations.

As part of the North Royalton Branch’s summerlong history-themed docket of programs celebrating CCPL’s 100th Birthday, the branch hosted “Euclid Beach Park - Cleveland’s Most Beloved Amusement Park” on June 14. Ninety-nine people joined John Frato, the President of Euclid Beach Park.

Parma Heights Branch BSA Janet Haverman noticed reserved materials for one of our most prolifi c readers, a 93-year old fan of spy fi ction and mysteries, were not being picked up. After following up, staff discovered the customer was in the hospital and without anything to read. Staff put together and delivered a blue library logo bag and four withdrawn mystery books from the ongoing book sale. To say that she was joyful would be an understatement.

Parma-Powers Branch manager Holly Camino was contacted by a local group that wanted to host a summer ESL camp for Ukrainian refugee children at the branch. Branch staff have worked hard to order books, toys, and resources for the camp. It is heartwarming to welcome these children into our library and support their learning.

The Parma-Snow Branch “Teen Stress Camp” ran from June 27 – June 30. Total attendance for the camp was six over four sessions. Aside from learning about stress, journaling and how breathing impacts stress, the attendees created a lotus fl ower on canvas using pointillism, decorated a journal, made a few painted rocks and created a mandala on a tote bag using the direct-to-garment printer. One teen surprised staff by presenting them each with a rock that was painted with, “Thanks for everything! I’ll miss you!”

Solon Branch BSA-I Jen Johnson hosted the Solon’s Little Laboratory program on June 16 that featured 32 preschool scientists and caregivers conducting a real-world science experiment to see how diff erent paper products do—and don’t—break down in water. As they waited for the test results, the families explored science and sensory themed toys from the toy collection.

The Fairview Park Branch has had three visits this month from Fairview Park school district summer day camps. One hundred six kids have attended so far with several more visits planned for July. Storytimes with toddler/preschool visits and Lego building with students from Garde 1 – 5 as well as a paint program for special education students have been held.

The North Olmsted Branch hosted an author event with Riley Sager on June 23. One hundred fi fty people attended, including a number of avid fans who drove over 3 hours for this event (from Michigan, Indiana, and Pennsylvania). The book signing lasted past 10 p.m., with this having been the fi rst book signing experience for many of the attendees.

To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of CCPL, Olmsted Falls

Branch BSL Jodi Carlson planned a “Mini Canvas Event.” During the month of June, more than 100 canvases were given out to patrons to paint and bring back to the library. The branch also hosted four painting days when people could come into the library to paint canvas with 14 people attending. The branch has had a lot of positive feedback, including an article in Westlife, about the program and has so far received 38 canvases back to display in the library through August.

The Strongsville Branch Friends of the Library purchased two touch Play Tables for the branch, one for Children’s and one for the Teen area. Each has 16 games available and children, teens and adults alike are sitting down and playing these games! Currently, the branch is the fi rst library in the Northeast Ohio area to have them available in their community. Families have described them as

“awesome” and “cool” and are enjoying these unique, fun tables.

On June 4, the Brooklyn Branch Children’s Department facilitated the “Happy 100th Birthday, Library!” Summer Reading Kickoff . Families from our community, totaling 249 attendees, enjoyed live music from Erin Nicole Neale & the Chill Factors, indoor and outdoor games and activities, a birthday-themed storytime, photo booth sessions, scavenger hunts, and mini cupcakes. It was the perfect summer event and showcased the variety of activities and opportunities off ered for children and families at CCPL.

Seventeen customers attended the Adapted Program for Adults on June 13 at the Brook Park Branch. BSL-II Liza Kahoe Arthur led an art program on Vincent Van Gogh. Participants learned about the painter’s life, his most famous paintings and painting techniques. Then the group painted their own “Starry Night” with acrylics and a template.

The Bay Village Branch held its Annual “Friends of the Library Ice Cream Social” for the fi rst time since 2019 and it was a blast! More than 245 community members came out to listen to the soothing samba sounds of Brazilian musician Luca Mundaca, chalk the walk, meet the Fairytale Foundation princesses, and have a scoop of ice cream from local Bay Village food truck Smokin’ Rock n’ Roll on Ice.

BSL Supervisor Children’s Rebecca Price-Donahue and BSA-II Kelly Bickley of the Middleburg Heights Branch received the Berea City School District’s “Be a Titan” award! They were nominated by Gayle Brusk, media specialist at Big Creek Elementary School, in Middleburg Heights. Bickley attended the District’s “Be a Titan” ceremony. Administrators from each school in the district honored individuals and groups from their student body, staff , and community.

During the month of June, Berea Branch Teen Librarian Gail Toth hosted a 4-part STEAM series on Forensic Science. During the series, nine students learned about types of print evidence (fi ngerprints, shoe prints, and tire tracks), blood type identifi cation and compatibility, DNA, and eyewitness reliability. During program, three students solved a mystery in a box using fi ber evidence, fi ngerprints, and handwriting analysis. Students were interested in the topics but they had the most fun solving the hands on mysteries. The fi nal week included a visit from veteran Berea Police Offi ce Charles Gute, who shared his experiences and took insightful questions from the group.

Financial Statement Analysis

June 2022

The budget presented on this report is the Permanent Appropriations and Estimated Revenues as adopted by the Board for the beginning of 2022.

Revenues

We received no distributions for either of our two tax levies. We will see some advance money for the month of July. We are currently above 50% on both levies. We will monitor the second half advances and settlement to see if we will receive more than what we have budgeted for the year.

Our June distribution for the PLF was $2,314,840. Based on a comparison to last year, this distribution was smaller than the amount received in June 2021. Our YTD comparisons is still substantially more than last year. The amount received YTD is 56.3% of the budget.

Fines and Fees collected in June were less than what was collected last year. The amount is showing red because of an accounting adjustment to move the money to the proper account. Although, looking at the total of Patron Fines and Fees the total amount collected this year does exceed the total amount collected last year. The amount collected for passport processing and photos greatly exceeded what was collected last year for June.

The remainder of the revenue accounts are where we would expect them to be for the month of June.

Expenses

The Salaries and Benefits accounts are right on budget.

The Library Materials accounts reflect an overall expense of 59%. This is typical as the first couple of months are larger buying months for materials and we also have encumbered funds to pay for preordered publications.

Some of the expense accounts show a larger percentage expensed and encumbered. This reflects the blanket purchase orders for the year, which increases the encumbrances.

35

Investments

There were several purchases of investments for the month of June.

7 pieces of Commercial Paper purchased with higher yields and shorter maturities:

4 pieces from JP Morgan Securities LLC - $1,340,000 total with yields of 2.69%-3.33%

2 pieces from MUFG Bank Ltd. - $1,250,000 with yields of 2.35%-3.24%

Toronto Dominion Bank - $250,000 - 3.32%

5 Certificates of Deposit:

Beal Bank, USA - $244,000 – 2.10%

John Marshall Bank - $89,000 – 2.30%

Goldman Sachs Bank, USA - $246,000 – 2.50%

Capital One Bank - $246,000 – 2.85%

The Dart Bank - $250,000 – 3.10%

Transfers and Advances

There were two transfers for the month. A transfer of $57,559.50 to ASPIRE and a transfer of $2,234.92 to SNAP. Both programs are within the Special Revenue Fund – Adult Educations Services.
