FLOYD MEMORIAL LIBRARY
Minutes (approved) of regular meeting June 7, 2010.

Members present: Keith McCamy, Rosemary Gabriel, Nancy Fischer, Maggi Travis, Buffy Hartmann, Diane Mulvaney, Michael Collins and Director Lisa Richland.

Absent: none.

The Board meeting was called to order at 7:08 pm.

The minutes of May 3, 2010 were approved on motion of 1) Travis, 2). Collins, unanimous.

The bills were ordered paid on motion of 1) McCamy, 2) Gabriel, unanimous.  The treasurer’s reports were accepted and filed for audit.

Adding to the Director’s Report, the paramount concern is the elevator.  The company maintaining the elevator has cancelled their contract – they can’t  (or won’t) do it any more.  Another, well recommended, company – who can – has examined it and suggested that we consider replacement.  It would cost roughly fifty or sixty thousand dollars with the possibility of a grant from the state that could cover about half of the expense.  This needs careful consideration.

Committees:

Public Relations.  Keith McCamy reported a conversation where the subject of noise in the library came up.  Lisa reported a recent incident of a patron complaining about noise from the Young Adult section, resolved by a librarian’s request to, “Keep it down, please,” evoking an adult response.

Garden: The “decorative” planting in the raised bed garden will be roses, “Knock Out”, and boxwood.

Unfinished Business: The 2011 budget is approved, 1) McCamy, 2) Travis, unanimous.

New Business:  Election of officers: Nancy Fischer, President; Rosemary Gabriel, Vice President; Keith McCamy, Secretary; Maggie Travis, Treasurer.  Unanimous.

Meeting adjourned at 7:26 on a motion of McCamy.  The next meeting will be Monday, July 5, 2010, at 7:00 pm.

Respectfully submitted,        
Keith McCamy, secretary
