Library director reports staffing changes; foundation funding to support temporary hires
Summary
Staffing shifts include loss of a full-time employee to city IT and the retirement of a part-time outreach specialist. The library foundation set aside $13,500 to fund short‑term hires; staff said they could continue one temporary worker into the fall with additional foundation support.
Elena, the library director, reported staffing changes and short-term staffing plans. She said the library lost a full-time employee to the city's IT department and that a part-time outreach and marketing specialist retired. "The foundation set aside 13,500, which helps support 2 short term workers, 1 adult aid, and 1 youth library aid," she told the board, citing support that initially ran from late April to mid-August.
Elena said the foundation ultimately funded one short-term worker into the fall and that the library is prioritizing keeping the youth aide because of program needs. She also noted other staffing items to be discussed at future meetings and said staff will continue to coordinate with the foundation for funding and volunteer support.
