Maggie Mills of the Whitmore Library told the council the branch circulated nearly 60,000 items in July and highlighted upcoming programs and a fine-waiver through August for summer-reading participants.

Maggie Mills, a representative of the Whitmore Library, updated the council during the citizen-comment period on summer programs and July circulation. "In July, we circulated almost 60,000 items from just the Whitmore branch," Mills said, adding that the systemwide circulation topped 1.2 million. She encouraged residents to pick up summer-reading prizes while supplies last and described upcoming events including Read to a Dog, a nonfiction book club meeting, and a yoga story time.

The report included attendance and program dates: a Lehi Club session tomorrow at 11 a.m., Read to a Dog this Friday at 11 a.m., and a nonfiction-adult book club on Wednesday the 19th at 7 p.m. Mills also noted the library issued fine waivers for summer-read participants through the end of August. The presentation was informational during the citizen-comments portion of the meeting and did not result in council action.
