contractual Library Planner services.

Committee has come with the planning, and Ms. Winkle presented
the 4-fold purpose of the plan. Ms. Roberts gave a presentation
on the planning process. She expressed the need of the Board to
work along with City Council, staff, and outside agencies in
planning for Library Services. It is the hope of the Planning
Committee that the planning process will involve a cross-section
of the community •

with discussion on relationships with City officials. There was
a suggestion of a joint meeting between the Board and Council.
Ms. Winkle will continually keep City Manager, Council, Board and
staff updated on this long range plan.
Ms. Roberts asked the Board to fill out a Stakeholder form giving
names of key individuals and groups in the area that could be
contacted for input to the plan.

She gave a brief update on 2 LSCA grant proposals. One is for
Training of Daycare providers, requesting $1,300. The second is
a CD-ROM information service for public/staff, which includes 3
workstations and 1 printer. This request is for $13,000+.
Ms. Winkle gave an outline of a reference service survey that
will be implemented at the Main Library in April. This survey
includes comments from both staff and the public. one half of
the funding for this survey will be paid by the State. This
survey will tie in with information gathering for the long range
plan.
Ms. Winkle noted the recent City organizational changes. The
responsibilities of the Board will not be affected in any way.
