Librarian outlines programs, volunteer efforts and a stopgap website plan
Summary
The library's staff reported rising program attendance, volunteer-driven events, and a decision to upgrade the existing WordPress plan and use staff/volunteer time to renovate the site ahead of fundraising deadlines.
The board heard a report from the Librarian (speaker 3) about recent programming and volunteer activity, including a collaboration with the conservation commission and a family cookbook club that "hit it out of the park." The Librarian said program attendance has already reached about 113 people and that upcoming events should boost those numbers further.
On web presence, the Librarian said a proposed outside contractor solution lacked approved funding and described a faster in-house approach: "We're gonna use some of Hailey's time to get volunteers to staff the library," and move to an upgraded WordPress tier (rising from about $120 per year to roughly $300 per year) to provide tools for renovating the site quickly ahead of major fundraising work.
