Director's Report
August 20, 2024
1. Reference Update (from Samantha Quail - Head of Reference, Eileen Castro, Adult Services
Librarian, Jolyn Lobe and Laura Boeck, Reference Assistants):
Our summer reading program is still going strong. Each week we see hundreds of families at the
reference desk to redeem rewards, and we have gotten lots of positive feedback from patrons on
our program. We continue to have new registrations ever week, and have over 1,900 patrons of all
ages participating in our reading challenges.
Summer may be in full swing, but we are already looking ahead to fall. Jolyn ran a school -supply
drive throughout the month of July in partnership with the Muskego Food Pantry. We collected
roughly 100 folders, 30 binders, 30 notebooks, plus tissues, pens, pencils, crayons, markers, and
glue! Big thanks to Jolyn for organizing this drive and helping local families get ready to go back to
school.
Upcoming adult programs for the next few weeks include:
• Matinee Movies on Thursdays August 15 and September 5.
• Avoid Senior Scams on Monday August 19.
• Chain Reaction Crochet Group on Tuesdays August 27 and September 10.
• Discovering Waukesha County on Wednesday August 28.
• Friends of the Library Culvers Night Fundraiser on Thursday September 12.
• Crafternoon on Monday September 16.
• Friends of the Library Annual Meeting on Monday September 16.
• Guided Meditation Event on Tuesday September 17.
2. Children's Update (from Emma McClure — Children's Librarian, Courtney Metko and Holly Bavinka
Children's Assistants):
The children's department is in our final week of the summer reading program! We have been so
pleased with the participation we had this year. In the 0-5 program, 412 children signed up and in
the 6-11 program, 812 children signed up. Over the last month, we held our weekly storytimes
alternating between the library and Bluhm Park as well as our Intergenerational Storytime at
ProHealth Regency. We had performances by Kidsplay, Mad Science, Hale o Malo, Dan Gogh Magic
and Art Show, Duke Otherwise, and David Stokes Frog Chorus. The children's department also
hosted original summer programming, such as our Sensory Playdate, Percy Jackson Party, and
Squishmallow Party. For the remainder of the summer, we will have the final Generation Creation,
Warriorbots Robotics program, Lego Club, and our first school bus storytime.
13
3. Young Adult Update (from Amanda Hyland, Young Adult and Marketing Librarian):
Teen Programs for the month of July included Adventures in VR, Just Craftin' Around —
Tissue Paper Suncatchers and Button Canvas Art, the Universal Yum Club featuring snacks
from the United Kingdom, and a Beat Saber Tournament. There was also a scavenger hunt
which teens had to find all 196 countries. Current projects include working on the new
website and getting ready for fall programing focusing on Octobers' escape room.
4. Circulation Update (from Jane Matusinec, Circulation Supervisor):
As the busy summer reading season comes to a close, the circulation team will pivot to promoting "Get
a Library Card" for the month of September.
We will say goodbye to our shelver Bryan this month as he is heading off to college. Bryan has done an
awesome job for us and will be missed.
5.Other Updates:
a. Dates of Note: The next full Library Board meeting is September 161" at 5pm. Please
email Brittany in advance if you cannot attend to assure a quorum is present. The
Strategic Planning Committee will be meeting in September or October to discuss the
draft of the 2025 Action Plan before it comes before the full Board for approval.
b. Friends' of the Library: The next Friends First Friday Coffee in will be September 6th at
9:30am. The next Friends' fundraiser will be a Culver's Night on September 121", and
then staff and the Friends will work to prepare for the Santa's Booked at the Library
Fundraiser to close out the year!
c. Building Updates: Our RFID gate statistics were not working January -April. Brittany
worked with the company during those months troubleshooting and finally
implemented a solution. Brittany has been monitoring the statistics May -July and
discovered the gates are still not counting people correctly. Brittany engaged the gate
tech support again over the next month. A new solution is not in place and Brittany will
monitor the statistics to assess accuracy. We had a pipe leak in Brittany's office that
required an emergency patch and a follow up visit to repair the pipe. We are working
on a final step in the family restroom: a reconfiguration of the locking mechanism for
the door. This will make the door easier to use and lock.
d. Action Plan Updates: See Agenda Item #2. Future Action Plan updates until the end of
the year will be found here moving forward.
e. Grant/Outside Funding Updates: At the July 2024 Library Board meeting it was
requested I include any details about grants applied for in 2024. Here and moving
forward I will list any information about grants or outside funding sources for the
current year.
14
i. January 2024: Friends of the Muskego Library Annual Funding Request (received
$13,951). Covers summer reading program expenses and program presenters
throughout year. Also covers movie license fee, Book pages subscription, and
zoo pass circulation.
ii. March 2024: Bridges Block Grant (received $1,000). Covered Children's
Audiobook special purchase (Tonle boxes and story figures).
iii. March 2024: Bridges Competitive Grant (received $5,000). Covered portion of
adult changing table.
iv. May 2024: WiLS Ideas to Action Grant (Submitted, waiting for results).
v. June 2024: Friends' Garden Walk Fundraiser (earned $8,622). Funds will assist
with 2025 Friends' Annual Funding Request.
vi. August/September 2024: Currently preparing funding requests for two outside
donor groups. Details will be provided next month.
f. Thanksgiving 2024: Brittany would like to take to take a straw poll from the Library
Board on your thoughts about closing the Library early November 201" (the day before
Thanksgiving) at 6:30pm (instead of normal close at 8:30pm). Last year we only had 5
checkouts in the last 1.5 hours. We could redistribute staff to work those hours earlier
in the day when there are more patrons doing last minute library pickups before the
holiday and get staff home a bit earlier.
6. Employee Anniversaries: None
7. Board Education: Currently patrons have two models to gain access to e-audiobooks and e-books:
Hoopla and Overdrive/Libby. Both have some unique titles and some crossover titles. Hoopla is instant
access/multi-user (of great value to patrons because of this), but is a pay -per -use model. Because of this
patron have a limited number of checkouts a month to control costs. Costs were exceeding budget for
every library across the system, so the decision system -wide was made to reduce to two checkouts a
month. Overdrive/Libby is instant access if the item is checked in, otherwise patrons will need to place a
hold on the item if it is checked out (much like our physical collection). Patrons can have up to 10 items
checked out at a time and 10 holds, but can read as many items within a month as they want. While the
Overdrive/Libby collection is very extensive, this model can lead to some long wait times (up to 6
months or longer) on very popular titles. Recently, the Library Directors of Bridges and Bridges System
staff have been talking about how to build a sustainable collection of electronic books and audiobooks
for the future. One thing you may start to notice if you are a user of Overdrive/Libby, is that the Lucky
Day collection is expanding for Bridges patrons! This is in effort to try and create more "ready now"
reading opportunities for patrons on this platform. Over the next few months Library Directors will be
monitoring how our Hoopla costs responded to this change and if the expanded Lucky Day collection in
Libby is of interest to patrons.

Background on Memorial Glass Donation
The Muskego Public Library received a memorial donation of $1,000 to honor a former staff member.
Discussions with staff occurred determining how best to honor the staff member using the donor funds
and a flower etched glass piece or stained-glass piece over the transom window in the magazine area
was presented to the Library Board in March 2021. Brittany worked with an artist on the design from
2021-2022. In 2022 Brittany was unable to regain contact with the original artist. Brittany is now
reengaging this project looking for a new company but wanted to give an update to the Library Board
as there has been turnover.
Estimates for the etched glass are about $600-$700 for etching, glass piece, and install.
Background on 2024 Action Plan Status
The 2024 Action Plan is made up of goals and action items derived from the current Library Board
approved Strategic Plan. What follows is a mid -year update of the Library's efforts on these goals and
action items. Please note the key in the upper right corner of the next page, which shows different
status levels. If there is no status level in red next to an action item, that means that action item is to be
completed in the next half of the year.
Much like our Strategic Plan, this 2024 Action Plan is a living document. Variables can occur that
change the direction or need of the action item. Moving forward, Brittany will list updates on
remaining action items in the Library Director Report.
Brittany will work with staff and meet with the Strategic Planning Committee in the Fall to build a draft
of the 2025 Action Plan, which will be brought before the full Library Board at the November or
December meeting.

2024 Action Plan
The purpose of the Muskego Public Library Action Plan is to provide a list of actions (projects, tasks, or ideas)
designed to improve the library building and services. All actions relate back to the strategic initiatives and

an endpoint and supplement Library staff's routine (daily) operational duties on behalf of the community.
