Board approves library media plan, citing outreach and resource goals
Summary
The Nekoosa School Board approved a district library media plan that centers on outreach, resource optimization and reading incentives; the motion passed on a roll-call vote after a presentation from the plan author.
The board voted to approve a proposed library media plan after hearing a presentation from Jesse, who said the plan was developed using a 'Future Ready' framework and focuses on three goals: increasing outreach and collaboration with staff, optimizing resource development (physical versus digital), and fostering positive student attitudes toward reading.
Jesse described proposed actions including professional development for tech integration, resource-use analysis, promotion of the high-school makerspace, monthly book recommendations and a possible Beanstack reading-incentive program. A board member moved to approve the plan and a second was recorded; the chair called for a roll-call vote and the motion carried with five yes votes recorded.
The approved plan is required under administrative code and will be posted on the library website; the presenter said he had solicited teacher feedback and made adjustments prior to the board motion.
