The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met August 20 and approved the July 2025 minutes with a correction. During public comment, a representative of the Friends of the Library reported the group has been active and wants to know the board’s vision and plan before offering further support. The board accepted the treasurer’s report, showing a cash balance of $1.0 million, revenue of $386,000 (down $36,000 from last year due to timing of local government funding), and expenses of $383,000 (up $30,000). The surplus is $40,000. The board discussed its practice of approving only large bills, not all invoices. The director reported on a planned tattoo fundraiser for adults 21 and older, which will offer temporary, henna, or no tattoos. A trustee questioned liability; the director said the tattoo artist assumes liability and that state and local police have been notified. No complaints have been received. The finance committee is working with the Allegheny County Library Association to map all bank and investment accounts. The fundraising committee outlined a One Day Pumpkin Patch on October 11, with pumpkins, painting, face painting, and fall food, with a backup date of November 22. A Romantasy Carnival is set for February 7, with a flat admission fee, signature drink, tarot readings, games, a DJ, and a fundraising goal of $3,000 to $5,000. Each board member is asked to sell five tickets and obtain two sponsorships. A trustee mentioned a military connection opportunity for students, possibly a career fair or fundraiser. The building committee proposed a transition viability plan and a committee to examine what needs to happen if a transition occurs. A trustee suggested setting a date for a building committee meeting. No old business was discussed. The next meeting is October 15.
