Board to explore hosting regional 'Friends in the Library' summit
Summary
Chair proposed the board explore hosting a regional summit to share Friends groups' practices on book sales, storage, volunteer retention, and technical/tax hurdles; next steps include an interest survey and further planning with the Friends group.
Chair (S1) proposed the board investigate hosting a regional 'Friends in the Library' summit to bring together neighboring groups (Round Rock, Georgetown, others) to share best practices on book sales, storage, technology and nonprofit tax issues. "I asked Jennifer to put it on the agenda to see if it would be something that we might wanna undertake as a board," the Chair said, and asked the board whether it wanted to move forward with exploring the idea.
Board members discussed in-person versus online formats, bandwidth and staffing to support a regional event, potential sponsorship from local firms and grocery stores, and the idea of an interest survey as a first step. The Chair said they would coordinate with Aaron and present a plan for the Friends group at the next meeting.
