Oopy attø-bel1. Tms was reviewed and discussed. Mr. Kreuser' questioned the rental of books versus purchase of books for the lib:rary. Mrs. Pelzmann feels that purchasing is 'the better plan even though a little slower. The better selection be:Lng an important factor. Mr. Kreuser questioned the increase in library assistant sa1.a.ry. was reviewed. This Oi.raula:tion 'was discussed but again it was brought ou't; tllat this is not a bru.e :indication of library use. J.f'ter chectlng previous budgets, it DS noted that this year's increase averages abollt ~he sane, that is, between 13% and 14%. The presentation of the budget .to the Town Board should definitely show a 3-year period increase in bUdge.t and a ,3-;year increase in circulation. Discussion followed pertA1ningto tlrs. :Aalzmann's sa..1.ary. Mrs. 1f:ï.m;ier moved that we increase the proposed bI1dget to $11,900, increasing Mrs. Pelzmannls hOllrly rate for unsc.hedllled hours to 12.50. This was seconded by Mr. Kapelka and the Board agreed unanimously. r- As our books close on :March 25, and the T01I11 Board closes their books On Maroh 11. a letter to the Town Ohairman is necessar,y to request that they allow IlS to retain that encumbered balance. Our next meeting is on February 26th at Tess Corners School. ~ Meeting adjoarned at 9t15 P.M. Re~p!qtfully submitted, # /) '1 "" /-;/ <,' ~I '? ./ ~~~f.~/" C. ~--t:~t;' Ruth C. o.riesbach Secretary
