Library Trustees - 9/23/19

The third meeting of 2019 was opened at 6:30 PM with Trustees Roger Daniels, Lorrie Eaton, and Stacie Winsor present. Also attending was Susan Turbyne, Library Director.

Lorrie Eaton moved that the minutes from our meeting on June 1 2019 be approved as presented. The motion was seconded by Stacie Winsor and passed. The approved minutes will be forwarded to the town office and placed on the Rumney Trustees blog.

The following concerns were discussed:
• Identifying our Library Goals – We discussed a variety of goals including extending our hours and offering a variety of programs
• Replacement of the apron around the perimeter of the building – We all agree that there is a need to complete this project. Our next step will be to identify a person to head up the project.
• Installation of heat in the downstairs room currently serving as the Teen Room – It was agreed that we want to complete this project. Roger has been talking with Carl Doe and will come to our next meeting with a proposal.
• Updating and understanding our investments with the Citizens Bank and identifying the report to the state regarding these funds – Susan will visit the Citizens office in Manchester and check on the status of our accounts.
• Putting together our budget request for the 2020 year – Stacie and Susan will have a proposal ready for our next meeting.

Susan shared a resume from a librarian who would like to work at our library.

It was agreed to meet on Monday, October 10th at 6:30 at the library to discuss and update our progress regarding these concerns.

Respectfully submitted,
Susan Turbyne, Library Director
