�REGULAR MEETING FOR MAY, 196 9
The Board of Trustees of the Lawrence Free Public Library held fts
regular meeting on Thursday, May 8 at 4:00 p.m. in the Director's Room
of the Library.
Members present were: Chairman Max Stalcup, Clark Coan, Barbara
Crews, James Drury and larry Flannery. Also present was Ofck Peters
of Robertson, Peters, Harrison and Williams, architects.
Hr. Peters evaluated the program presented by Mr. Clarence s.
Paine of Nashville, Tennessee with comments on how he could interpret
ft graphically for the Board. It was agreed by the Board members and
the architect that the greatest deterrent to a schematic interpretation
was the fact that a site has not been designated by the Commissioners.
Max Sta 1cup directed t&gt;~r. Peters to present the Board a scherr.at i c p 1an
including site area and parking requirements for it so that t c Board
might take this to the Commissioners and ask for a site designation.
The Librarian gave the Financial Report for April, 1969 which is
included in the minutes and the Statistical Report for April, 1969 which

Mr. Mayo reported that the Library's chances for federal funding
are very remote since the present administration has reduced the Libra r y
Services and Construction Act from $49 million to $23 million.
Johnson County has loaned the Lawrence Library a 1963 station wagon
with 70,000 miles at no cost other than gas and any major repairs. leRoy
Fox of the Johnson County Library thought this would elimfnate NEKL bookkeeping and it will be used mainly by Mr. Mayo and Mrs. Murphy for NEKL
reference work.
Discussion followed on the communication the Board has received from
various members of the oAR. Mr. Mayo explained that in the Fall of 1968
Whon shelving was ordered and the periodicals were schedule~ ~o be put in
the magazine room he alerted the OAR librarian of the poss.bl1ity that
there mfght not b~ room for the OAR books. In Janu~r~,. 1969, he contacted
t~ DAR librarian again to advise her that the poss1b1l1ty was indeed a
reality and the OAR library was removed from the shelves. The first of
1970 the library will have to remove approximately )00-400 books per month
from the shelves and pay storage some place for them. Since the OAR col-

�l~gical

lectlon Is the onlY one not belonging to the Library ft seemed
to remove it first. It was auggested by Larry Flannery that Chairman
Stalcup write a letter to Mrs. Gladys Bremer, Vfce Regent of the DAR
; nf.,rmlng her that the Library would put the DAR co I lect ion back on
shelves until January, 1970--at which time they would have to be pl
e
in storage.

Water Department. Beginning in probably May, approximately 300-400 books will

Mrs. Susan Frampton will replace Mrs. Kim Meyer as head of circulation.
For the past 1~ months, t~e Library has had problems with thefts of billfolds, sun glasses, etc. and small fires being built and put out in wastebaskets.
The problems have been more of a nuisance situation than anything else, but the
State Fire Marshall spent several days in the library to let offenders know that
no more violation wi 11 be tolerated.

725 children have signed up for the Summer Reading Program during the first
week.

There has been no acknowledgement from the OAR of the letter from Chairman
Max Stalcup regarding storage of their collection.
Jame~ Drury, budget ca•~ittee chairman~ presented the

1970 budget t~ the

board--a copy of which is enclosed in the m1nutes book. Mr. Drury expla1ned
the the book purchase was reduced as low as possible (due to the st~rage problem
the library fs already facing) and most of the increase was placed on salaries.
