City Council Liaison : No report
Standing Committees :
President Gambro noted that the Library Director evaluation will be done in March.
Policy
Ms . Gryder moved to adopt the scanner policy as read in the meeting. Mr. Walter seconded the motion
and it was approved unanimously on a voice vote .
Finance
The proposed budget is the same as the previous one with property taxes projected to be much lower.
In order to balance the budget, a $46,037 transfer from the General Fund was included in the budget
given to the Library Board. Following a similar transfer last year, the City had informed the Library
they would not be able to make such a payment again. Another figure of $32 ,000 was also included
and it represents the amount the City reimburses the Library for unemployment insurance and liability.
Mr. Fredrickson noted that the $46,037 is not included in the budget presented to the Council and the
Library Board would need to appear before the Council with that request. The committee then studied
the options in the event they are not granted the $46,037 . They include cutting hours, staff and
programs. A suggestion was made to use part of the reserve rather than cut hours and staff, however,
Ms . Johnson said it was not good policy to use the savings for the daily bills . Mr. Fredrickson added
that right now there is a projected surplus of $ 8 ,200 and it could increase. Page 2 of 4

I
No raises are included in the proposed budget and it was noted that all City employees with health
insurance pay a certain percentage of that cost. Currently, there are 5 full time Library employees who
have the health insurance . Trustee LaChance suggested looking at increased employee insurance
contributions and Ms . Gryder suggested asking Michelle for staff input regarding staff cuts vs .
increased contributions. President Gambro said the schools are offering HMO's and that PPO's are
available if the employee pays for it. Mr. Fredrickson will determine the costs of HMO vs . PPO and
report back to the Board.
i
Trustee Walter suggested that the Board explore the new Affordable Care Act insurance for cost
savings . He said there would most likely be federal subsidies and the City could provide a set amount.
Assistance would be provided on finding the appropriate insurance. Rob will consult the insurance
broker regarding re-entry into the City health insurance if needed . Ms. LaChance suggested having a
meeting with the full time employees to explain this action. Mr. Walter will arrange for a "navigator"
to talk with the Board first.
Ms . Johnson commented that the Library should not have to conduct fundraising, when tax money
should be supporting it. Ms . Gambro said library hours should not be cut further.
i
Board members agreed they do not wish to appear before the Council to request extra money. Ms.
Johnson suggested a letter to Council asking for recommendations on handling the budget deficit. Ms .
Grambro asked Rob about the wisdom of using some reserve for bills . He indicated a small withdrawal
would be OK. He also detailed the Fund Balance and surpluses from previous years and said the
Library has exceeded projections in the past.
The budget must be finalized in April and it was noted that Mr. Pfister said she could cut an additional
$ 5 ,00046,000 . Ms. Lindblom noted that the Library Director and her staff work many additional
hours without pay. Ms . Lindblom asked if the Library can approve a deficit budget. This can be done,
however, Ms . Johnson suggested that the Library should turn in a budget of what is really needed.
Motion: Ms . Johnson moved to accept the budget as presented to the Finance Committee. Mr. Walter
seconded the motion.
Discussion: It was questioned why the budget given to the City is not balanced and Ms . Gryder
objected to the budget being given to the City before the Library receives it. The rest of the Board
agreed and asked that the budget be given to the Library first next year. Mr. Fredrickson said he would
recommend this to the City Administrator and he will also send the budget to the entire Board.
I
Ms . Johnson then amended her original motion to accept the budget as presented to the City Council.
Following short comments, she then withdrew her motion.
I
New Motion : Ms . Johnson moved to approve the deficit budget as presented to the Finance
Committee . Ms . LaChance seconded the motion. Discussion—The Board stated that in effect, they
are approving a deficit budget without the $46,000 added to balance the budget.
Roll call : LaChance-yes, Chacon-yes, Lindblom-yes, Johnson-yes, Gryder-yes, Gambro-yes, Walter-
yes . Passed 7-0 .

New Business :
Library 5KIIOK Dace
Russ Walter suggested a race as a fundraiser for the Library. He had spoken with Tim Evans of the
Parks Department who has coordinated prior races . Mr. Walter said it could be held on the Saturday of
Hometown Days and Mr. Evans would help with the planning and mapping of the course. There
cided that more money would be
would be a $25 entry fee and T-shirts would be provided. It was de
raised with a 5K run/walk. It is expected to attract 200-350 people with races for kids and adults . A
theme of "Run to Read" was suggested by Mr. Walter. Sponsors would be needed and the Library
would receive all the proceeds . The Board felt this would be a good idea and Mr. Walter will explore
further with consideration given to the book sale that morning. Liability will also be determined.
Additional Business : None

Summary
i
A proposed library survey to be distributed to all Yorkville residents and library patrons .
I
Background
This item was last discussed at the September 9"' Library Board meeting. At that time the Board
recommended moving forward with the adoption of the Library Survey committee ' s proposed library
survey, which was a consolidation of a City proposed library survey and a Library Survey committee
proposed survey. Attached is a copy of the online version of the survey.
i
Staff did leave in the passcode component of the survey, in order to generate validity. Having a
passcode for survey takers to enter- will ensure that individuals only take the survey once and do not take
the survey multiple times , thereby distorting results . Further details on the passeode are given below .
The Library Board ' s most recent recommendation was to remove three questions ( listed below)
that we strongly encourage the Board to reconsider. Ultimately, if the Library Board chooses not to
accept our recommendations on the three questions below, we will proceed with the survey as you ' ve
previously authorized :
i
For purposes of assisting the library in their long term vision and planning, what items are
important for the library to address? (Choose the three most important)
1 . More study rooms
2 . More storytime/craft space
3 . More study carrels
4 . Meeting room (s)
5 . More computer training rooms
6 . Enhanced young adult area
7 . Larger children ' s room
8 . Senior area
9 . More parking
10 . More word processing computers
11 . More Internet computers
12 . Separate reading area for magazines
13 . Improved drive up book drop off
This question can provide information that could be used for long term strategic planning. While
there may not be anything that the Board can do in this fiscal year or next to address these items, it is
important to track these responses over time in order to determine any changes in preferences or to plan
�I
i
for future programs . The City still plans for unfunded programs based on the results of their survey.
Road improvements were one such example of the City planning for an unfunded program . While the
City was not able to initially fund this goal , the survey information revealed how important road
improvements were to residents . Also , if funding were to unexpectedly come available for major
projects, then this question could provide information on how to spend those funds .
Please rate your satisfaction with the following services .
1 ) Quality of book collection
2) Quantity of book collection
3 ) Quality of media collection
4) Quantity of media collection
5 ) Quantity of E-books
6) Reference section Quality
i
7) Telephone service
8 ) Children's programming
9) Foreign language materials
10) Adult programming
11 ) Displays
Including this question would provide more insight into which areas of the library that
individuals would like to see improved . If individuals are not happy with the book collection, then you
would be able to determine if they are unhappy with the quantity or the quality. In addition, this could
provide information as to which types of materials the Library should focus on purchasing or updating
as funds become available.
Which of the following best describes your race/ethnicity?
1 . White/Caucasian
2 . African American/Black
3 . Latino
4 . Asian/Pacific Islander
5 . Native American/Eskimo
6 . Mixed Race
This information will help to determine how representative the information collected is of the
entire population . A lack of adequate representation of Yorkville ' s population could mean that certain
groups are left out of the data . This would mean that their needs would not be considered by the Board
and would partially devalue the survey data. .
Delivery Methodology
The City will assist with the survey distribution, response collection and data analysis . There are
two ways in which the survey can be distributed which should generate a response rate high enough for
the analysis to be valid . The first is identical to how the City distributed its City Services Survey. Staff
will draft a FAQ related to the Library survey and insert the FAQ , which will contain the individual
resident ' s passcode and instructions on how to use the survey, into the April utility bill .
In addition , the Library staff will be able to hand out the survey in person at the Library. They
can either hand out the FAQ instructing people on how to take the online survey, hand them a hard copy
and have them complete it in the Library, or hand them a hard copy and tell them to mail it back . In
order to maintain confidentiality, any hard copies turned in at the library will have to be placed in a seal
envelope by the survey responder and staff should be sure to instruct the person that they need to answer
question one in order for their responses to be counted . These hard copies will then be delivered to City
staff, still in their signed envelope for entry. This will ensure that the staff member entering responses
into the online survey will have no prior connection with the individual who took the survey. If an
individual wish to mail the survey back to the library, staff should be sure to instruct the person to put
"Attention : Library Survey" on the outside of the envelope and to include their passcode or library
number on the actual survey. These will also be delivered to the City and manually entered by staff. The
only staff members who will have access to the written responses will be Bart Olson, Jeff Weckbach ,
and Bonnie Olsem .
After the survey is closed, staff will then verify the various entries for legitimacy and remove
any duplication . The individual passeodes , which will be a 7 or 8 digit, randomized sequence, or library
card numbers will be cross referenced to detennine if an individual took the survey multiple times . Staff
will then analyze the results and present the findings to the Library Board .
Tentative Schedule for Completion
Tentatively, staff would make the survey available in mid-April . At that time, a link to the survey
would be made available on the City ' s website , Facebook page , and Twitter account with instructions
for individuals to either use their Library Card Number or wait until they receive their access code in
their utility bill . Hardcopy versions of the survey will also be available at the Library ' s main desk for
individuals to pick up or they can retrieve the link to the online version of the survey from the main
desk. The survey FAQ will be mailed out to all Yorkville residents with their April utility bills . The
FAQ will contain the link to the survey, as well as the individual passcode for each user.
i
I
Staff is then anticipating closing the survey mid-June, if over 400 responses have been collected .
Staff will then analyze the results of the survey throughout June and July. This will be followed by a
presentation at the August Library Board meeting.
i
i
Recommendation
Staff recommends adoption of the attached survey with suggested additional questions .
