7. LIBRARY REPORT
Circulation for July was the second busiest month ever!
Circulation was up 6% over last year and for the year we’re up 11%
over last year, about July 25th the library will bypass last year’s
total circulation with another 5 weeks to go. Probably something
around 380 – 385,000 items for the year.
Request for proposals was reposted for the Materials Handling
System due that Friday (August 12).
The library has been very busy: Summer Reading Program is
finishing up; maybe 550 kids in Summer Reading program finishing
up their reading contracts with the Library. Family night will be
Friday, August 12. Steve asked for volunteers for Family Night;
it would be a big help, for they’re a little short. Jill MITCHELL
volunteered.
Circulation … is astounding! to be this far ahead this early is
really nice. We’ve been there all this year! Everyone has worked
really hard, and Board members complemented Steve and the Library
Staff.

Hearing on the Eagle Budget.

surprised.
