The library board approved an amendment to Policy 103 and accepted the packet as presented, then approved a temporary adjustment to the holiday calendar to allow staff to attend a regional training day and adopted the consent agenda, the board announced during its meeting.
Speaker 3 moved the board through approval of Policy 103 "as amended and packet," citing the changes included in the meeting packet; Joseph was named as the mover and Speaker 2 seconded. The board voted by voice; Speaker 3 announced the motion passed.
On the holiday calendar item, the board considered a request to close the building at 6 p.m. on a training day so participating staff could attend a regional event of keynotes and afternoon breakouts. Speaker 4 described the plan: participating libraries will contribute financially, attendance is optional for staff, and the host library would shift closing from 9 p.m. to 6 p.m. to consolidate shift coverage while maintaining some in-building service. Speaker 5 expressed support, and the board approved the change by voice vote.
The consent agenda, which included the minutes of the Nov. 21 meeting and November disbursements, was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote.
None of the three actions recorded a roll-call tally in the transcript; outcomes were announced by voice vote and described as passing. The motions and outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript are: approval of Policy 103 as amended; approval of the holiday-calendar change to permit a 6 p.m. closure for the training day; and approval of the consent agenda (minutes and disbursements).
The board did not specify further implementation steps or effective dates for the holiday-hours change during the discussion recorded in the transcript. The meeting adjourned after the board previewed future agenda items, including a six-month strategic plan update, Q2 financials and the director evaluation.
