Summary

Friends of the Library will switch to a cashless payment system for book sales; staff said a needed part is being awaited and described how barcodes on books will enable card payments. The Friends will meet monthly on the second Thursday.

A Friends of the Library representative updated the board that the Friends will meet on the second Thursday of each month and are transitioning to a cashless payment system for book sales.

The Director (S5) explained logistics: "their new cashless reservation system, we're still waiting on a part... So every book will basically have a barcode. People can scan it, and then they can either pay with their card, or if they do have exact change, they can drop it in the box." The group is awaiting a replacement part to complete the cashless payment setup.

Members discussed operational details for book sales and how the Friends will coordinate with staff once the part arrives. No formal vote or funding request was made during the meeting.
