Paris Public Library Advisory Board <br />Minutes of the Regular Meeting <br />June 21, 2006 <br />The Paris Public Library Advisory Board met in regular session Wednesday afternoon, June 21, 2006, at 4 <br />o'clock in the City Council Conference Room at Paris City Hall. Chairman Bill Kennedy called the meeting to <br />order. Other members in attendance were Jake Street, Deborah Hatley, Debbie Anderson, Eddie Poole, Jackie <br />Alsobrook, and Fran Neeley. Also in attendance was Priscilla McAnally, Library Director. <br />Jackie Alsobrook made a motion to accept the April 20 minutes with a second by Jake Street. Due to a lack of <br />quorum, there were no minutes from the May meeting. <br />Priscilla McAnally distributed the draft of a proposed Collection Development Policy for board members' <br />evaluation and comments. The question of an overdue book ordinance was brought up. The point was made that <br />such an ordinance would apply to the Circulation Policy, but Ms. McAnally will research to see if one does <br />exist. <br />Ms. McAnally has received bids on new carpet to replace the 20- year -old carpet currently in the library. Smith <br />Carpets bid is $24,858 and Plaza. Floor Covering bid is $17,221. The Friends of the Library will contribute <br />$5000. If $5000 can be taken from bequests, the remainder can be budgeted. Upon discussion, the board felt the <br />bids needed to be more specific. Bill Kennedy will help select an appropriate carpet. Fran Neeley moved to <br />table the issue until those details are worked out. <br />Fran Neeley made a motion to recommend Hilda Mallory for the upcoming vacancy on the board. Jackie <br />Alsobrook seconded. <br />Ms. McAnally reported that chairs in the magazine area of the library have been reupholstered in a more <br />durable fabric. She distributed her proposed 2006 -2007 budget. May circulation was down 12% from 2005 and <br />library visits were down 18.7 %. There were 14' ) new items for May and $377 in memorial gifts. There were <br />four children's programs with a total of 62 in attendance. <br />The library has received a certificate of appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Committee for work on a <br />retaining wall for the front lawn. Hilliard & Sons will build the wall and redo the sidewalk. Curb renovation <br />will be budgeted next year. <br />David Dike has been retained to appraise the library's artwork, including the Biggers mural and the Bywaters <br />panels. Ms. McAnally would like to move the Bywaters works back to the original section of the library for <br />both aesthetic and preservation reasons. <br />The meeting adjourned at 5 p.m. <br />Debbie Anderson <br />Secretary <br />
