Jared (library presenter) outlined how the library stretches taxpayer dollars, citing patron savings from services (example: $15 saved on an item; some patrons saved over $21,000 over many years), reported ~44,000 active library cards in the community, recent usage increases (11% walk-in/window/book pick-up; 8% circulation), program and bookmobile growth (25%), volunteer hours up 14%, and a proposed FY25 library allocation of just under $3.5 million (76% salaries/benefits, 8% collection, 25% operations). He referenced Idaho library statutes ("section 33 26 0 3" and "section 33 26 0 9").
