for FY 2022 begins in March. Rodne stated that City Financial Officer Kyle Lester

far as openings/closings. Board member Roberts asked what other libraries are
doing as far as other program ideas such as virtual trivia and chess games. Director
Rodne said she will also look at nationally known libraries to see what they have
been doing.
Additionally, Director Rodne noted that the Library’s Long-Range Plan document
expires at the end of 2021. Rodne added that the Library’s architect, Aaron Babcock
had been requested to submit a proposal for updating the long-range plan. Work on
plan would begin towards the end of summer. The last time the long-range plan was
updated, a survey was executed and a brain-storming session was held with the
Library Board. The culmination of the existing long-range plan was the completion
of the Library’s Spatial Reorganization Plan.
Chair McPherson asked if it was possible to have a socially distanced, in-person
meeting at the Library. Rodne said she would look into if that was possible.
