The reason for this is that I wi I I be attending a meeting Tuesday of other I ibrarians in the state to discuss the enclosed memo from the State Library dated March 5th . As you wi I I see from fhe enclosure , a proposa l has been made to place pubf ic I ibraries in Kansas unde; Boards of Education , a complete reorganizing of alI existing I ibrary services . I hope by Wednesday to be able to give you more information on the reaction of other I ibraries to this situation- one , by the way , to my knowledge has never even been discussed with Kansas Librarians or Boards . Please read this over and we wi I I discuss it at the meet i ng . If my understanding is correct , this was not meant to be seen by I ibraries at this time , but was supposed to be sent only to the State Library Commission . However , by some means copies were received by about 12 I ibraries last week . It would probably be best not to publicize the memo at this time . ·ncerel ~ Way e Mayo �WAYNE MAYO LIBRARY BOARD MEETING WEDNESDAY , MARCH 21st at 4 p. m. in the Board room A- Cal I to order 8- Minutes of tbe February meeting C- Librarian ' s report 1- financial stastical I i g ht p rob Iem electric costs investment of idle funds 6- current state proposal and status of I ibrary aid bi I I 7- plans for book sale 8- revenue sharing • 92345- 10- 0- Old business 1- Hiring of Librarian 23- E- New business 1- 2F- Discussion of bi I Is G- Adjournment • LI BRARY DIRECTOR �FINANCIAL STATEMENT February 28 , 1972 Balance, January 1, 1973 Balance, January 30, 1973 Year to Date $ 8, LB3 .8L $ 93,541 . 88 RECEIPT~: Tax Funns • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Adult Books •• .••. ••••••• Children's Books • • ••..• • .

Observers: Mrs . Evely Ha~tings from the Le~gue of Women's Voters and Natas~ Kuzmanovic, High Schbol Student . The February minutes were approved as distributed . The Director's report included the following items: Februar,y financial report and statistics. Mr. Mayo reported that some of the ballasts on the fluorescent lighting have been replaced . The Sun Ray Company is trying to get the General Electric Co . to replace all the ballasts. The repair men indicate that the ballasts installed were defective . The Library Board voices concern over this problem and feels this concern should be brought to the attention of City Manager Buford Watson by letter, with a copy to the City Attorney, Mit Allen . There was discussion of a newspaper article from the Journal World stating that members of the City Conunission felt the electric bill of the Library was very high. Mr . Hayo stated that our bills have totaled $8 , 265 for the first six months of occupancy of the building and the estimate of the architect for a one year period was $15,999 . He feels the cost is in line with the estimate presented . The Board asked Mr . Mayo to check with Buford Watson to see if he has shared a letter l-Tritten by Austin Stedham showing a breakdown of electricity costs by the month with the City Commission . The Board also felt that perhaps Mr . Mayo should list the payments made each of the months to compare with Mr. Stedham 1 s breakdown . Mr . Mayo reported that a second Certificate of Deposit in the amount of $40, 000 has been ourchased with excess funds . This is for a period of three months . Howard Wiseman made a motion that the Board of Directors go on record as opposing the Libraries of the State going under the Board of Education (i.e. local public libraries under the local school districts) as outlined by State Librarian Dean Gross in his memorandum dated March 5, 1973 . Skipper Williams seconded the motion . The motion carried with James Drury abstaining from voting . 15 and 16 as the dates for the Book Sale to be held here in front of the Library Building . The Board has requested a list of the officers of the CALL group to be presented at the next board meeting . C. A.

In my letter to the Commission of November 21, 1972, we requested$ 75,000 o·1er a five year period. We believe that the $ 50,000 figure may be more real is· c in this time of financial strain. The Lawrence Library's book collection now numbers aproximately 87,000. According to the standards for pub I ic I ibraries as defined by the American Library Association, our minimum collection should now be at least 100,000 volumes. The shortage of available materials has been accelerated by our recent move to larger quarters. I might mention,parenthetical ly, that since the move last Fal I to the new I ibrary that our book circula·~ion has increased by 25% over the same period a yoar ago. The number of registered borrowers has increased from 17,850 at the end of 1971 to a record of 23,152 persons by January of this year,an increase of 30% in 12 months, much of it in the last 4 rponths of 1972. The Library as quality, munity. The book budget has rnade every effort to build up its collection in quantity, as \·Jell and to increase it p~oportionately to the growi·h of our reading combook budget for the past 3 year-s has averaged about $ 33,000. Our· for 1973 is $ 40,000. In 1968 we spent approximately$ 24,000 i'o purchase 6,700 books at an overal I average cost (aft'er discount> of $ :s. 60 per book. In 1972 \'le spent $ 36,600 to purchase 6,500 books at an overal I average cost of $ 5.62 per book. The five year increase in costs from $ 3.60 to $ 5.62 represents a total percentage increase of 56% during the five years or I 1% per year. In that five year period our book budget (excluding Federal funds) ~~ent up slightly over 50%. As we see from the above, i·his resulted in a slight dec I ine in total purchases. During the same five year period U.S. output rose from 30,000 volumes in 1968 to 38,000 las!· year. So, in 1968 we purchased 22% of pub I ishing output,which in 1972 dropped to 17%. ....• ... �I • - \•/hen ebrnl ergoenc i e ; "'"t:l r·ti set, it. is usua I I y "the boo I< budget \·th i ch seems tappd e . ur e •• or s 0 111 crease the col 1 ·t· to be i·he most just i"o keep up wiTh the esi irncJted ~ . ec_lons each ye~r have been prirnari l y 1 i r fact \'le have ta 1 1en some\vhai" . ~ ncrease per year 1n book costs , v1h i I e tion, aduli" non-fiction and ch · ~~hln~.

This added to the above 7 , 500 would g1ve us 12 , 300 for a total collection of about 98 , 000 , very close ·to standar~s . Act ua l ly , such a large amount , if given , should be spent over a two year per 1 od for the best se I oct i on poss i b I e . That way , we cou I d no·l· on I y pick up additional new i itles , but go back and buy older items needed in the co ll ection .

There are 310 t i t l es I i sted as having been pub I ished in 197 1 and i t appears we are buying approximate l y 20% of these , somewhat cornparab l e to our other- purchases . Not inc l uded in the above are any other mi nority ho l d i ngs or· purc hases . We think we could definite ly use some of the revenue sharing f·und s and increase our hoI d i ngs in these areas , wi t h r eccommendat i o ns from commun i ty minority organizat i ons .

J �REGULAR MEETING April 17, 1973 The Board of Directors of the Lawrence Public Library held it's regular monthly meeting April 17, 1973 in the Conference room at L:OO. Members present were: Chairman Coan, Mrs. Kit Carlsen, Larry Flanner.y, James Drur,y. Observers present were: Mrs. Evelyn Hastines and Natasha Kuzmanovic. The Mabcb minutes were approved as distributed. The following slate of officers for the Library Board were elected: Chairman -- Clark Coan Vice Chairman -- James Drury Secretary-Treasurer -- Howard Wiseman The Director's report included a review of the statistics and budget survey. Mr. Mayo announced that the first check from the State for the Inter-Librar.y Loan Grant has been received. This is in the amount of $1630.00 and is for operations. The estimated funds will be $3200.00 for Operating expenses and $3500.00 for book purchase. In answer to the question of why these funds do not show in the budget, Mr. Mayo explained that they are a reimbursable item and do show up in the financial statement and as a separate item in the budget survey, but because the fund and the amount is on a yearly basis, it cannot be budgeted. There was discussion of the Revenue Sharing Funds. A letter is attached (copy) as written by Chairman Coan to the City Manager in behalf of the Library Board asking for consideration in the distribution of such funds. Mr. Mayo reported on the recent vandalism to the furn~ture in the adult section of the library. Seven couches have been slashed, seemingly by knife or razor. The estimated repair will be around $250.00. Insurance covering the furnishings is $250. deductible. Letters have been sent to the contractors and sub-contractors about the problems of the building in hopes that correction can be made prior to the July 1, 1973 deadline. This deadline represents the one year~antee on the building after the acceptance date of July 1, 1972. Mr. Mayo reports the ballasts on the fluorescent lighting have been the major problem. A motion was made by Larry Flannery that the Board maintains the policy as originally set up for use of the gallery and auditorium. This was seconded by James Drury and the motion carried unanmmously. The C.A.L.L. open~ meeting will be held Tuesday, April 2U, 1973. Chai11nan Coan aske~ James Drury and Larry Flannery to form a recommendation or contract declaring a policy on hiring of the Director for the Library.

Larry FlannerJ made a motion that $850.00 be given for merit raises to full time employees for the last six months of the current year, or beginning July 1, 1973 1 under the direction of the Director. James Drury seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. Approval of the March bills totaling $23,319.32 was given by roll call vote.

Members present were: regular monthly Chairman Clark Coan, Howard Wiseman, James Drury, Kit Carlsen Mrs . Charley Stough and observers: Mrs. Evelyn Hastings and Natashi Kuzmanovic. The minutes were approved as distributed. ~~s. Stough was welcomed to the Board by Chairman Coan. Mrs. Stough is the new member of the Lawrence Public Library Board appointed to take the place of Barbara Crews who has served two consecutive four year terms. The Director 's report included a review of the statistics and financial report and a short report on the meeting with the Commissioners in regard to the Revenue Sharing funds to be distributed to the City. They were interested in the statistics of books owned by the library, the acquis±tions, withdrawals, etc. and also the registrations of city and county borrowers. There were suggestions that needs of three groups; Concerned Black Parents, East Lawrence Community Center and the Ballard Center be considered in the purchase of books with these funds. Mr. Mayo stated that the practice of the Library has been to purchase some sixty to seventy of the BOO books published by or about the minority groups each year. Figures given by the State Librarian estimate that approximately $105 ,000 will be received by libraries over the state of Kansas from the Revenue Sharing Funds. Lawrence expects to receive $15,000. State Libra rian Dean Gross has reeigned his position effective as of July 31, 1973. Mr. Mayo reports he is now working on 1974 budget figures. The evaluation figures given him show an estimated three million dollar increase.
