Director's Report
March 19th, 2024
1. Reference Update (from Samantha Quail - Head of Reference, Jolyn Lobe and Laura Boeck,
Reference Assistants):
Our Winter Reading Program ended on February 29. This all -ages program challenged readers to
finish 5 books in different genres, and this year we added a paper log option in addition to offering
book tracking though Beanstack. We had 38 patrons complete the program this year, more than
double the number which completed it last year.
AARP appointments are fully booked for the remainder of the season. Eileen's "Brews + Books" book
club at Eagle Park Brewery continues to be a big success, with 29 attendees at the March 5 meeting.
This spring Jolyn has started offering her very successful "Crafternoon" program one evening a
month, which has been well -received, and will also be bringing back the "Generation Creation"
inter -generational craft program she designed with Children's Assistant Courtney Metko.
Upcoming adult programs for the next few weeks include:
• Crafternoon: Lavender Pillows on Monday March 18.
• AARP Tax Preparation Assistance on Tuesdays March 19 & 26.
• Coloring Club on Wednesday March 20.
• Muskego Matinees: Wonka on Thursday March 21.
• Chain Reaction Crochet Group on Tuesday March 26.
• Generation Creation: Silk Scarf Egg Dying on Wednesday March 27.
• Cup of Health: Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention on Thursday March 28.
• Books + Brews Book Club on Tuesday April 2.
• Book Talk with local author Kathleen Eull on Wednesday April 10.
• Memory Cafe: Coffee and Coffee Cake Tasting on Thursday April 11.
• Friends of the Library Storybook Mini -Golf event on Sunday April 14.
2. Children's Update (from Emma McClure — Children's Librarian, Courtney Metko and Holly Bavinka
Children's Assistants):
This past month has been filled by our five weekly storytimes, weekly A.T.L.A.S. meetings, and our
monthly meetings of Graphic Fanatics and Lego Club. On March 15th, we will have our final Block
Party of the season; it will be replaced by Sensory Playdate in April. Almost 90 people attended our
Solar Eclipse Party on March 2nd and went home with solar eclipse glasses for the upcoming solar
eclipse. Community members can also receive solar eclipse glasses by visiting the reference desk.
Additionally, we attended Bay Lane Elementary's Family Literacy Night and signed new families up
11
for library cards. Looking forward, the children's department is preparing for Touch a Truck program
with the Police and Fire Department, Petite Prom, and Summer Reading.
3. Young Adult Update (from Amanda Hyland, Young Adult and Marketing Librarian):
During the month of February, there was a Name that Candy Bar Contest and a Hershey Kiss
Scavenger Hunt in the Teen Area. The Young Adult Librarian has been working on creating Break -In
Bags for the 2024 Summer Reading program. She has also been busy coordinating with the middle
schools Junior's National Honor Societies to get volunteers to build holes for the mini -golf fundraiser
in April. Upcoming projects include marketing materials for the Friends of the Muskego Public
Library's Culver's Dine Out Night and Garden Walk, as well getting ready for Summer Reading.
4. Circulation Update (from Jane Matusinec, Circulation Supervisor):
The circulation team welcomed a new circulation aide this month. Haryune (Yune) Kim started on
March 4. She works the afternoon shifts and Tuesday evenings. Yune comes to us with a
background in customer service from the retail world. We are all excited to work with her. The
Friends' Love Your Library Heart sale concluded with over $250 collected. The latest update to our
RFID self -check machines seems to have fixed the bugs that were causing it to shut down during use.
Staff was very efficient and processed every single new item waiting for processing. This lasted for
about one whole day, but we were really pleased with ourselves!
S. Other Updates:
a. Dates of Note: The next full Library Board meeting is April 16th at 5pm. Please email
Brittany in advance if you cannot attend to assure a quorum is present.
b. Friends' of the Library: The next Friends First Friday Coffee in will be April 5th at
9:30am. The Friends' and Library Staff are preparing for the Library Shred Day (in May)
and the Library Garden Walk (in June).
c. Building Updates: Due to supply orders for the Family Restroom, the contractor predicts
construction will begin April 1st. Electrical outlets were added to prepare for the three
larger pods will arrive in late April or early May. Wallpaper has been removed in the
restrooms and new paint has been applied (they look much brighter!). Brittany is
working to get updated estimates for the five year capital plan (2025-2029) which will
be presented to the Library Board in June. The people counter in our new gates is not
registering counts correctly. Brittany has been working with the company since the end
of January to troubleshoot this.
d. Expression of Thanks: This meeting mark's Library Board President Gail Miles Konkel's
last day of service with the Muskego Public Library Board. Gail has served on the Library
Board since 2013, and served as both the Vice President and Library Board President, as
well as on the Strategic Planning Committee and Personnel Committee. She
participated in multiple strategic planning processes, was part of a hiring process for a
library director, and was part of the Library Board during multiple capital projects that
transformed the Library to help better serve the community. Thank you Gail!

6. Employee Anniversaries: Jolyn Lobe, Reference Assistant (16 years), Michele Hansen, Administrative
Services Assistant (6 years), Lauren Duranso, Library Aide (1 year)
7. Board Education: The Library has a fax machine! It costs $1 a page (cover sheet is free), in a pricing
structure re -approved by the Board in June 2023. Faxing is something this community still relies on,
especially for health care and legal requests. We send faxes every week for patrons.

Background on Library Parking Lot Pole/Fence Refurbishing
Part of the 2024 Capital Budget the Library Board approved and Mayor/City Council funded was the
sandblasting and powder coating of the rusting parking lot light poles and 216-foot safety railing along
the lot edge. I have attached the quote I received and some photos.
The Library Board approved the project back in July 2023 during the budgeting process. I am
recommending this company because it is the same company that the City of Muskego chose for the
refinishing of the Janesville Road light poles, therefore the company is already vetted for the work
required. When I received the quote last year I estimated for inflation when putting in my capital
request, however the costs came in slightly higher ($151.50 over the budget). We can use the operating
maintenance funds to cover the rest. This maintenance will prevent rust in the future.
