The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met June 30 and approved minutes from the prior meeting. The treasurer reported a cash reserve above $900,000, with year-to-date revenue of $142,000 and a $45,000 surplus. The township’s first and early second quarter payments came in $10,000 above expectations, though the board noted it still lacked guidance on handling the extra funds. The board unanimously approved the treasurer’s report. The director reported the library is moving toward normal operations, resuming in-person programming in June with outdoor storytimes and take-and-make projects. Summer kickoff distributed over 300 children’s kits, 75 adult kits and 15 teen kits. Combined book and food sales raised $1,165. The library is shifting away from a team-based staff schedule. More in-person events are planned for September, including a book sale that cannot be held in the township building. The board discussed holding the sale in the library or as a tent sale. The fundraising committee reported strong summer reading sales and will meet monthly. The board discussed scheduling a Drag Queen BINGO event and an appreciation brunch in September. The building improvement committee met with the township manager, who expressed support for the library remaining in its current building long-term. The township manager noted that if MCTV and the tax office vacate, the library could use that space for modest rent covering maintenance. The township manager plans to retire in January 2024 and recommended a successor. If the library were to swap spaces with the Moon Township Municipal Authority, renovation costs would fall on the library, and MTMA would sign a 40-year lease. The committee will contact the township engineer, a real estate agent and supervisors about grant writing. The board created an ad hoc grant writing committee, with a chair and four members. The community engagement committee will schedule a meet-and-greet with the Friends of the Library in September. The strategic planning committee expects to present a draft document next month.
