Library was held at 4:00 on December 13, 1977. Members present were
Dottie Wood, Narnee Murphy, and Martha Brewer.
Linda Foster gave the monthly report which is attached, as is Mrs.
Murphy's treasurer's report.
The Board instructed Linda Foster and Carol Wright to make lists of needed
supplies and replacements. The 1977 budget has now been met and we
should take care of needed items at this time.
The Board entered into a discussion of building plans. Mrs. Wright
reviewed some things which we should do:
1) Find out how the city plans to handle the $200,000 for our building
2) Hire an architect. 72% of the total cost of building seems
to be the usual fee.
3) Board should fully inspect the plans before the bids are let
4) It should be understood that the architect does not need to
select the furnishings.
5) The shelving and the carpet should be ordered early.
6) The colors should be picked early
Considering what the rent will be for the talking books section should also
be NMI decided upon by the Board.
Several other items were considered by the Board. It was brought to the
Board's attention that we might need to go to a new phone arrangement.
This would be a good time to put in a cable for a future TV in the children's
section. We may need a different security and this would mean a new arrange-
ment of the check out desk. Garbage cans stands could be made to tie in
with the building.
The following motion was made, seconded and passed:
The Board of the Roberta Fulbright Library will hire Warren Seagraves
as the architect of our new expansion. This will be with the consent of the
two absent members and with the agreement of the City Manager.
Linda Foster asked for one week of her vacation before the end of the year.
There being no further business, the neeting was adjourned.
Martha Brewer,
Secretary
