Commissioners approve $10,521 library computer purchase after questions
Summary
Roosevelt County commissioners approved a $10,521.06 invoice to buy 12 library computers, answering questions about replacement cycles and disposal of old equipment.
Roosevelt County commissioners voted to approve an invoice for $10,521.06 to purchase 12 computers for the county library — six intended for staff use and six for public access. Commissioner Robert Toavs moved approval and Commissioner Gary Macdonald seconded; the motion passed during the Nov. 12 meeting.
Reporter Bill VanderWheele asked how often the county replaces the library's computers. Commissioner Gordon Oelkers replied, “It’s been about 6 to 8 years with these current computers.” When attendee Bill Juve asked what would happen to the old machines, Oelkers said IT staff member Jenna handles disposal. The board did not record further details about trade-in, resale, or recycling procedures for the old units.
