The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met on November 29, 2023, and approved the October 2023 minutes. During public comment, a resident donated $500 to the Board of Trustees, two children’s rugs, and a donation for a Christmas fundraiser. The board discussed a Mad Mex fundraiser in January for $50 per person, including a buffet dinner and a drink, and an April 28 Jane Austen tea at Robin Hill to raise money for kindergarten books for Moon Area School District roundup bags. The president’s report covered holiday fundraising, including selling bookish t-shirts for $25 and sweatshirts for $38, with $8 from each sale going to the library; payments would go to an employee and Ruffle and Stitch, not the library. The United Way now has a nonprofit code for the library. Cookie box sales were underway with a December 2 cutoff. The purse bash received compliments on basket and purse selections, and the board was reaching out to a DJ for a receipt. The treasurer’s report included a follow-up with an employee on Willer fundraising money and a fundraising report from an employee at ACLA. The director’s report noted staff reviews on December 1, closures for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, December 26, December 31, January 1, and January 2, and a doubled fundraising line item. RAD will put $3.2 million into ACLA to cover leases, with $29,000 remaining for licensing, maintaining current computers and providing premier services for four years cost-free. No computers will be available for children downstairs, but preloaded iPads will be provided. The board discussed potential needs for monitors for virtual meetings and a year-over-year budget comparison in February, with a standard for collections at 12%. Committee reports included nothing from personnel, bylaws, or finance. The fundraising committee thanked members for the purse bash and discussed hiring a professional fundraiser paid with a percentage of fundraising, potentially funded by STEM grants or the airport foundation. Community outreach included staff at Tapestry and pop-ups, with ongoing revisions to the definition of community outreach. The building committee walked the basement with an employee on November 21 to review renovation intentions, with no charge for labor and total internal MTMA cost. The space will have one entrance, cameras accessible to police and a staff member, a staff member staffed at all times, a children’s circulation desk, and a bathroom downstairs. The board entered executive session at 7:44 PM and left at 8:28 PM. They unanimously approved the budget and holiday gifts as proposed. Nominations for officers were made: a board member for president, a board member for vice president, a board member for treasurer, a board member for vice treasurer, and a board member for secretary. There was no old business, and no December meeting was scheduled. The meeting adjourned.The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met on November 29, 2023, and approved the October 2023 minutes.
