Mr. Vander Ploeg suggested doing signs all at once one week and then larger projects the next. Mr. Cellon said maybe Development Services would assist with that. Mr. Jacobsen said he liked getting the plans ahead of time. Mr. Cellon said he thought that Ms. Fosman was doing a great job with her involvement with the Board.

what they wanted. They should be able to reduce it and still match the architecture of the center. • Mr. Vander Ploeg said he would be ok with it at 18 feet but doesn’t like the box and wondered why there were so many

tenant names on it. He suggested rethinking that, as it was a blur of white. • The applicant noted they were contractually obligated to have certain tenant names on the sign. • Mr. Caycedo said it may be a benefit for less tenants on the sign and the design should be compatible with the building. He

also thought it could be done at 15 feet.

MINUTES MEETING OF THE LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD

DOWNTOWN LIBRARY APRIL 16, 2014

Dr. Robert Seltzer, Chair, called the meeting to order at 4:02 p.m. Roll was called. MEMBERS PRESENT: Dr. Robert Seltzer, Chair

Ms. Kathleen Murdoch, Vice Chair Dr. Renato Bellu Ms. Catherine Greene

Ms. Elizabeth Grinnan Mr. Michael Liss MEMBERS ABSENT: Ms. Wendy Paley STAFF PRESENT: Ms. Ann Nappa, Manager of Library Services, AIHC Ms. Carol Rynk, Administrative Assistant (Recorder) Ms. Oyuki Poletz, Librarian, Youth Services APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Board member Grinnan requested change to 3/19/2014 minutes as follows:

“Board Member Grinnan reported on the upcoming events sponsored by the Friends including for Florence Fuller Outreach, two Puppet Shows, and a band performance by Boca Raton Middle School.”

MOTION to approve corrected minutes was made by Board member Greene and seconded by Board member Grinnan. MOTION CARRIED (6-0) PUBLIC COMMENTS: N/A REPORT OF THE CHAIR: Board member Murdoch reported her findings on other local library boards, and her findings from the City Clerk’s office regarding organizational duties of the board. The Library Board is one of the few in the city that actually have bylaws, based on the initial history of the library from the 1950s, so some points in the bylaws may be null and void at this date. Also, the bylaws are governed by, and secondary to, the city code of ordinance. Board member Greene asked if the correct name is Library Board or Library Advisory Board. The Library Board is typically referred to as the Library Advisory Board. Board member Grinnan thanked member Murdoch for her work on this topic. Acting Manager Ann Nappa provided additional documentation of the role of library boards in general. The process to change the bylaws, per the City Clerk’s office: the board should review the bylaws, make changes they feel are appropriate and vote upon the changes within the public meeting forum. When all agree, a memo should be sent to Susan Saxton (cc: Kathy Maxwell) with a “strike-through” copy of the bylaws with changes requesting review. The meeting date and vote should be noted in the memo.

MINUTES MEETING OF THE LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD DOWNTOWN LIBRARY APRIL 16, 2014 Page 2 of 4 REPORT OF LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS: Board member Grinnan reported that the Friends are having some issues and are considering cutting back on adult programming – one issue is that they feel it is more attractive to have adult programs at DTL rather than SRL, based on their customer feedback. Member Grinnan presented a list of improvements that the Friends feel would make SRL more attractive for programs, and asked if the Library Board would support the Friends in their requests:

• New chairs to replace white wooden chairs that are uncomfortable • Improvements to A/V, including a better microphone, a better projector, and screen paint on

the south wall of meeting room • Closing in the mezzanine • New paint for art gallery walls • Rain protection for the patio • Replacement of huge upholstered chairs on mezzanine

Chair Seltzer asked if the Friends would be paying for these requested items, or are they asking the city to pay for them? Member Grinnan asked if these items could be included in the capital improvement project of enclosing the mezzanine. Acting Manager Nappa explained the budget process for capital improvement projects and the process for other budget items like furnishings and new programs; she also addressed some of the other items on the list such as putting in a Facilities Maintenance work order for the painting of gallery. Both Seltzer and Nappa asked that the Friends to quantify the list with actual costs, quantities and description specifications along with their expectations so that these items can be addressed within the scope of the library’s needs. For example, the upholstered chairs may be too big for a concert, but they fit the need for the daily demand of individual reading and laptop use. Similarly, the white folding chairs may not be the most comfortable for an hour long concert once a month, but are part of the library’s revenue generating equipment rental program for weddings and special events. Ms. Nappa further stated that she will discuss these requested items with the Friends at their regularly scheduled monthly meeting. Member Grinnan also reported on the Friends’ recent volunteer luncheon, the past month’s bookstore earnings of about $6,000, and the Friends’ participation with the Junior League’s Dr. Seuss party. REPORT OF THE LIBRARY MANAGER: Acting Manager Nappa discussed options for early voting at the libraries, and the possibility of having it at the old library instead of the new Downtown Library. Member Michael Liss suggested that early voting at the new library may be an opportunity to promote visibility and usage of the new library. With the LAB goal to promote the library and increase funding and circulation, early voting would be an invitation into the facility for people who would not otherwise visit. With early voting being the trend, the midterm election, and the presidential election within 2 years, this could bring increased visibility, usage and funding to the library.

MINUTES MEETING OF THE LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD DOWNTOWN LIBRARY APRIL 16, 2014 Page 3 of 4 Acting Manager Nappa explained that the actual 4 weeks of early voting cut into the room’s revenue stream as rentable space when it is not booked for traditional library programs during the busy Fall season. Either way, it will be the City Manager’s decision. Ms. Nappa discussed revenue items, reported that BRPL is now collecting fines and fees online with eCommerce, and explained that the library has requested money for additional maintenance and funding for adult programs for the next fiscal year. Ms. Nappa reported that revenue generated at Spanish River from Oct 2013 to March 2014 was almost $45,000 for 101 paid events and $13,000 in equipment rental. For the Downtown Library, revenue generated for this same time period was $4,500 for 18 paid events and $500 in equipment rental. Ms. Nappa emphasized that the library does not charge for traditional library programs (i.e., story times, book clubs, film series) and that Librarians feel strongly against this, so having rental space that brings in revenue to the general fund is fine if it means keeping traditional library programs free. Weddings are included in the paid events and recently the Library was represented at a Wedding Expo. Ms. Nappa reported that the Circulation Services department is going through the LEAN process improvement program, and that the Collection Services is interested in adding streaming video to the electronic library collection. Ms. Nappa reported on Programming with an update on the continuation of Great Conversations/Books and Socrates Café. Money Smart Week, a week-long event focusing on fiscal literacy programs for adults and youth, was very successful. The resume writing workshop facilitated by CareerSource Palm Beach County was very popular and may become a regular outreach program at the library. Summer Reading is the next big programming push for kids, and for the first time, the library is offering a summer reading program for adults. Clyde Butcher’s Cuba exhibit is being planned again for October through December 2014, with other related programming. It was requested that copies of the recent positive feedback forms on programs and service be sent to the Chair. Dr. Bellu will prepare a report of Socrates Café for upcoming meeting in a few months. The applications for Manager of Library Services were handed out to those Board members that did not pick them up. Feedback from the Board regarding the applicants is due to Admin on April 19. Chair Seltzer requested a copy of the city’s pay and classification manual, job description, and sample reclassification letter be sent to the Board for the review and possible reclassification of the Manager of Library Services position. NEW BUSINESS: Youth Services Librarian, Oyuki Poletz, was introduced and gave a review of the traditional and enhanced library programs offered to the public. The goal of the Youth Services programs is to integrate library, reading and fun. The Summer Reading objective is to keep people reading throughout the summer. It will be a busy time for Youth Services as they focus on programming for school age children as well as tweens and teens. Keeping the shelves stocked with required and fun reading materials, while providing a full programming schedule, is a challenge but pays off with strong circulation and attendance numbers throughout the summer. Reading incentives such as weekly prizes for younger

MINUTES MEETING OF THE LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD DOWNTOWN LIBRARY APRIL 16, 2014 Page 4 of 4 kids, and gift cards for older tweens and teens keep the students interested and involved. The Summer Reading program will include online signup and the ability for all patrons to log the books they’ve read and share reviews. Even with the limited programming last summer due to the new DTL opening, the Youth Services numbers were still up over 29% from the previous year. The adult summer program will include some shared reading opportunities and other suggested individual reading. The Summer Reading Kickoff Party will be held in the DTL Community Room on June 14 from 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Ms. Poletz also reviewed with the Board the Unattended Children policy for “unaccompanied children found (8 years and under)” and “children/teens 15 and under who are not picked up by closing.” The Board was very interested in this policy and the welfare of the children at the library. OLD BUSINESS: N/A ADJOURNMENT: MOTION to adjourn meeting at 5:44 p.m. was made by Cate Greene and seconded by Kathy Murdoch. (MOTION CARRIED 6-0)
