Reference Update (from Samantha Quail - Head of Reference, Eileen Castro, Adult Services Librarian, Jolyn lobe and Laura Boeck, Reference Assistants): We concluded our 4th annual Winter Reading Program on Friday February 28, which had our largest participation ever! Our "5 for Fun" challenge asked participants to read 5 books of different genres. Everyone who completed the challenge got a mug, bookmark, and candy cane, courtesy of the Friends of the Library. New this year, kids 2-12 could also get a voucher for a free Disney on Ice ticket, and everyone who completed the challenge was also entered into a grand prize drawing for 4 free waterpark passes, donated by Mt. Olympus. The new additions were a big draw, we had 108 patrons who completed our challenge this year, compared to 40 from last year. On Thursday February 13 we held a puzzle competition. We had 27 participants across 8 teams who assembled the same 500-piece puzzle and competed to see if they could complete it the fastest. Special thanks to Jolyn for stepping up to run this event when another staff member got sick. We also had 60 patrons attend the concert by Irish musicians Ceol Cairde on Saturday March 8, and 24 patrons came out to see Wicked on Thursday March 6, our highest matinee attendance so far this year. The Friends are gearing up for their 5th annual Garden Walk on June 28. They have already started promoting the event at a Home and Garden expo in Madison and the Secret Garden Book Talk event on March 12. Upcoming adult programs for the next few weeks include: • Crafternoon: Bamboo Mat Box on Monday March 17. • Matinee Movies on Thursdays March 20 and April 3. • Chain reaction Crochet Group on Tuesday March 25 and April 8. • Special showing of "Welcome Home: a tribute to Vietnam Veterans" on Wednesday March 26. • Cup of Health: Nutrition on Thursday March 27. • Brews + Books Book Club on Tuesday April 1. • Titanic Menus on Saturday April 5. • Understanding Acupuncture on Wednesday April 16. 2. Children's Update (from Emma McClure — Children's Librarian, Courtney Metko): The children's department has had a busy month. Our Petite Prom, held on February 22nd, was a success! We had over 100 attendees and received lots of positive feedback from the community. 10 Along with Petite Prom, we also held our regular storytimes, an intergenerational storytime, A.T.L.A.S, Lego Club, STEAM Explorers, and Block Party. Looking forward, we are preparing for a St. Patrick's Day craft program and Messy Makers, a sensory -focused craft program for toddlers and preschoolers. Finally, we are excited to welcome Miss Stephanie, our new children's assistant, to our team! 3. Young Adult Update (from Amanda Hyland, Young Adult and Marketing Librarian): During the month of February the library hosted a Universal Yums Club program for teens featuring chocolate snacks from across the globe. March's programs include a Lucky Charms Scavenger Hunt. Current projects include working on break-in bags, creating materials for the 2025 Garden Walk, and getting ready for Summer Reading. 4. Circulation Update (from Jane Matusinec, Circulation Supervisor): The circulation staff sold hearts on behalf of the Friends' during the month of February for Love Your Library Month. $340 in heart sales were made that will go to the Friends' to help fund programming for all ages, the Zoo pass, our movie license, and more! One generous anonymous family donated $150. Every year this family provides a donation of this size to the Friends' heart sale and we are grateful to them! Kudos to the circulation staff for assisting the Friends' with this sale! S. Other Updates: a. Dates of Note: The next full Library Board meeting is April 15th in the Library Conference Room. Please email Brittany in advance if you cannot attend to assure a quorum is present. The Nominating Committee will be appointed in April by the Library Board President to present a slate of officers for the May 2025 Annual Meeting. b. Friends' of the Library: The next Friends First Friday Coffee in will be April 4th at 9:30am. May 21st there will be a Culver's night, and the Friends' and Library staff will now begin to prepare for the annual shred event and 2025 Garden Walk! c. Building Updates: Work is completed on the sprinkler system. The repaired system has passed the air test. Leaks, pinholes, and dry rot were found and repaired. Because this was not a full sprinkler system replacement, there are still parts of system that are original to the building. They are working now, but I will be assessing those parts to determine when they will need replacement in the future. Our wi-fi printing update is now working. Patrons can email attachments from their email to our print release station, and we can now print Microsoft office files. The system is not perfect but an improvement upon the limitations of the old system. The lighting for the display cases has been completed thanks to two generous Muskego donors. d. Grant/Outside Funding Updates: This is a list of grants or outside funding sources for the current year. i. January 2025: Friends of the Muskego Library Annual Funding Request was submitted to the Friends' Executive Board and approved $15,600. This request generously covers summer reading program expenses, program presenters and materials for all ages throughout the year, our movie license fee, Book Pages 11 subscription, and zoo pass circulation. Thank you to the Friends and the Library staff who help support them! ii. February 2025: Friends' of the Muskego Library and Library staff put on the Love Your Library fundraiser and raised $593.70. They also raised $376.20 from the holiday light recycling drive. Staff applied and received a $400 grant to fund an adult program from the Bridges Library System. 6. Employee Anniversaries: Jolyn Lobe, Reference Assistant (17 years), Michele Hansen, Admin. Services Assistant (7 years), Yune Kim (1 year) 7. Board Education: Did you know the library has a virtual tour! Thanks to funding from Bridges Library System, we were able to get a set of 360 degree photos taken of the building. They were stitched together to make a clickable online tour, and staff entered informational talking points about the building. This tour is a great first introduction to our building for those planning a trip to the library! It can be found on our website under "Tell Me About" and then "Library Virtual Tour". fiV Monthly Statistics for Muskego Public Library 2025 JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC TOTAL I FEB YTD Checkouts 2019 21,785 21,507 24,231 23,645 21,420 26,506 30,895 26,132 21,640 22,944 20,647 18,821 280,173 43,292 2024 19,250 19,881 20,592 19,958 19,577 25,696 27,952 23,039 19,164 19,817 17,898 17,655 250,479 39,131 2025 19,453 18,742 38,195 38,195 25 vs 24 % Change 1.1% (5.7%) (84.8%) (2.4%) Overdrive Checkouts (E-books, E-Audio, E-Video, E-Magazines) 2019 2,247 2,119 2,302 2,198 2,232 2,262 2,455 2,351 2,312 2,358 2,220 2,202 27,258 4,366 2024 4,287 4,037 4,361 4,010 4,040 3,902 3,969 4,007 4,044 4,164 3,867 3,861 48,549 8,324 2025 4,583 4,138 8,721 8,721 25 vs 24 % Change 6.9% 2.5% (82.0%) 4.8% Kanopy/Hoopla Play Withdrawal KANOPY 2019 21 29 53 41 75 54 44 62 56 59 58 53 605 50 KANOPY/HOOPLA 2024 500 551 585 639 411 411 410 399 408 417 425 454 5610 1051 KANOPY 2024 0494 70 74 84 58 �1 93 81 53 81 80 69 92 896 144 HOOPLA 2024 430 477 501 581 0 318 329 346 327 337 356 362 4714 907 KANOPY/HOOPLA 2025 420 914 914 KANOPY 2025 12: 59 181 181 HOOPLA 2025 37: 361 733 733 25 vs 24 % Change TOTAL (1.2%) (23.8%) (83.7%) (13.0%) 25 vs 24 % Change Kanopy ONLY 74.3% (20.3%) (79.8%) 25.7% Owning Holds Shipped 2019 3,296 2,872 2,914 2,669 2,670 2,975 3,148 2,811 3,107 2,980 2,902 2,495 34,839 6,168 2024 3,309 3,157 3,089 3,518 2,938 3,086 3,302 3,038 3,359 3,062 3,166 2,657 37,681 6,466 2025 3,644 3,011 6,655 6,655 25 vs 24 % Change 10.1% (4.6%) (82.3%) 2.9% Self -Service Transaction Percentage of Total Circ (Self -check, Online Renewals, and eBook Checkouts/Checkouts and eBook Checkouts) 2019 56.4% 60.6% 62.5% 63.0% 65.6% 63.3% 65.1% 65.2% 66.6% 62.9% 64.0% 65.3% 63.4% 58.5% 2024 53.9% 72.5% 74.1% 75.3% 70.5% 70.9% 72.7% 74.9% 77.6% 77.3% 77.7% 77.2% 72.8% 63.3% 2025 75.7% 71.7% 73.7% 73.7% Curbside Pickups 2024 1 3 7 2 4 0 0 1 2 1 0 3 24 4 2025 1 0 1 1 25 vs 24 % Change 0.0% (100.0%) (95.8%) (75.0%) Library Visits 2019 10,151 11,418 12,525 13,775 10,701 14,463 14,851 13,447 10,803 12,373 11,118 10,601 146,224 21,569 2024 unavailable* 13,206 10,134 11,361 10,035 9,602 54,338 - 2025 11,426 11,312 22,738 22,738 25 vs 24 % Change (58.2%) Reference Transactions (DPI defined) 2019 1,182 1,123 1,067 995 1,002 1,211 1,331 1,215 1,171 1,118 987 878 13,280 2,305 2024 822 984 964 966 744 1,139 1,168 1,008 942 837 792 603 10,969 1,806 2025 951 881 1,832 1,832 25 vs 24 % Change 15.7% (10.5%) (83.3%) 1.4% Technical/Other Information Transactions 2019 0 576 528 427 492 3,152 4,030 1,362 481 536 450 346 12,380 576 2024 768 737 777 915 680 2,889 2,609 2,140 656 760 560 520 14,011 1,505 2025 809 749 1,558 1,558 25 vs 24 % Change 5.3% 1.6% (88.9%) 3.5% Meeting Room Use 2019 78 89 107 97 91 87 87 68 78 96 106 78 1,062 167 2024 83 90 101 112 84 90 77 82 85 133 103 72 1,112 173 2025 77 107 184 184 25 vs 24 % Change (7.2%) 18.9% (83.5%) 6.4% *New gates/counters were installed on 1/17/24 and did not accurately capture data Jan - Jul '24. 13 MUSKEGO PUBLIC LIBRARY Background on JobPod MOU JobPod is a new program that allows for greater collaboration between workforce development and libraries. It takes what libraries already do (offer space, technology access, and connecting people to resources), and gives libraries additional tools and training to succeed and best support our patrons. Our library has an opportunity to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with JobPod. JobPod will help facilitate workforce development connections and provide grant money for an additional meeting pod that can be used for job seeker activities. The one-time location fee will also be covered by grant funding from the Department of Workforce Development. Our library will be able to meet the participating library requirements and expectations as outlined in the MOU.
