VII. New Business
A. National Library Week, April 12 - 18
Two cakes will be purchased by the Friends of the library to be served to the
public throughout that week and approximately 36 tote bags will be handed out
to patrons. Library staff would like to forgive fines (overdues only) for $5.00 and
under in exchange for a non-perishable food item for the new local food pantry,
"Bread by the Bay." Fines will not be waived for lost or damaged items. Motion
by Heiser, seconded by Gering, to approve request. Motion carried. It was also
suggested to ask WOCO to consider doing a remote broadcast from the library
sometime during that week.
B. Gates Grant
Director Murphy was notified that Farnsworth made the cut list of this grant to receive 4 new computers over 4 years. The library would need to commit matching funds to participate. Our cost would be $1,300.00 in 2010 for 2 new computers valued at $5,200.00, and $2,600.00 in 2011, for 2 more computers valued at $5,200.00. Participation is required for both years. The Friends of the Library declined to give monetary support and the general consensus of the board was not to participate. No motion made or action taken on this matter.
C. 2008 Annual Report was distributed and each page discussed. Library square footage was corrected. Report was accepted and approved with corrections. M/S/C Ballestad, Gilbert
VIII. Adjournment at 8:00 p.m. M/S/C Ballestad, Gering

Respectfully submitted,
Mary L. Heiser, Secretary
