Library director reports larger July purchases for collections; board accepts financial report
Summary
Director Michelle Centore told trustees July spending rose for Books & Guides and the Large Print collection as staff complete weeding and replacement; the board voted to accept the July financial report and noted a minimal Library Gift Fund activity with an appropriation check delivered to Town Hall.
Michelle Centore presented the library's July financial report and explained that larger orders posted to the Books & Guides line reflect an active adult weeding project and replacement purchases to close collection gaps. She also reported increasing spending on the Large Print collection and routine annual expenses typical for July.
"There were some larger orders under the Books & Guides line due to ongoing weeding and the need to order additions and replacements," the minutes record. Chair Katie Richard moved to accept the financial report; Kathie Cietanno seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Centore added that Library Gift Fund activity was minimal and that a check for the annual appropriation had been dropped off at Town Hall for processing.
