management workshop for librarians. She felt that the experience
was both enlightening in its presentation of new ideas, and
reassuring in the consideration of problems common to all iû
library management.
Two staff members have submi tted'their resignations" leaving
one CETA position - that of Children's and 2echnical Services
Assistant.. nnd, ai library clerk position open. ;;otic23 éind

by rflrs. Wolf and seconded by Illrs. Buhrandt that the following
be aèded~C' ,aragraph 10 of the book selection policy of 3/11/70.

by the donor; A letter acknowledging receipt of a
gift will be given on request of the donor.
Motion-passed.
The 1979 Budget was examined and discussed.
Item. two CETA positions will terminate in July. Shall the
library include in the budget a salary provision for these two
positions for the half year remaining? Miss Horton will seek
advice from the ~or about this.
Item: Increase of $5,000 for print materials. Miss Horton -
explained that this increase is due to higher publishers' costs, which are continuing to rise, and also to need for expansion
in at least three areas --literature, religion, and science.
Results of the survey indicated the need in these areas.
Þ~s. Leichtfuss expressed concern about paying costs of ten
and twelve dollars for jopular books that might have little lasting
value or interest. Suggestions were made about having a rental
setup for books of this kind. There will be further discussion
about this.
Final acceptance of the budget should take place at the meeting
of September 21. Copies of the budget will be mailed out to
members who were absent from the August meeting so that they
will have ample time for study~
A small, appealing folder inviting membership in a Friends of
the Library group has been prepared for distribution with the
survey. Miss Horton reports that there have already been three
responses to this invitation and one of ~hese includes an offer to be an officer in the group. Hooray:
