Roll Call: Jackie Milschewski-yes, Ryan Forristall-yes, Theron Garcia-yes, Rosie Millen-yes, Bret Reifsteck-yes, Tara Schumacher-yes, Jason Hedman-yes, Keri Pesola-yes. Staff Present: Library Director Shelley Augustine Others Present: Sue Smithmeyer-Friends of the Library, Daniel Chacon, Russ Walter via Zoom, Amanda Standerfer-Fast Forward Libraries via Zoom, Molly Krempski, Mike Krempski, Brynn Krempski, Rick Koshko-WSPY Also 2 attendees who signed in as “Good Guy” and “Good Citizen” Recognition of Visitors: President Garcia recognized staff and guests. Amendments to the Agenda: Ms. Garcia asked to move up the item “Board of Trustees – Oath of Office”, from New Business. New Business (out of sequence): Board of Trustees – Oath of Office Lead by Board Secretary Rosie Millen, the Board members recited an oath to support the Constitutions of the United States and State of Illinois and to faithfully discharge their duties as trustees for the Yorkville Public Library. They also signed their oaths. Presentations: Ms. Amanda Standerfer of Fast Forward Libraries was present via Zoom and gave a presentation regarding Strategic Plans. She said Director Augustine had attended her Zoom program regarding Strategic Planning and gave Ms. Augustine a proposal to present to the Board. She said Strategic Plans are road maps for the future for dealing with all aspects of the library. Ms. Standerfer said there are 3 phases: Learn phase, Dream phase and Do phase and she explained the components of each phase. A Vision Statement and Mission Statement will also result from this project. Ms. Standerfer made the following comments in response to Board members' questions. 1. An estimate for ala carte assistance vs. doing the entire plan will depend on the library's budget and staff capacity. 2. She has worked with several suburban libraries and others. 3. The deliverables she provides if working with staff, would be notes and whatever the staff requests. If she reviews the community survey administered by staff, it would be $200 for the review. Page 2 of 5 4. If a staff member works with her, Ms. Standerfer would be the resource, however, it becomes expensive if she coordinates committees. It is better if a staff member takes the lead. 5. A Board member commented that a big part of a Strategic Plan is finding out what we don't know about trends at other libraries, what is happening there, etc. She would only be able to share minimal information from other libraries since it is intellectual property and she would need their permission to share. For smaller libraries, she looks at local censuses, internal data trends and focus groups. 6. Through the survey, Ms. Standerfer said she could bring in fresh ideas after seeing interest levels. It is during the retreat sessions, that ideas come out, what is working and how to use the data gathered. The trends will be brought forth by staff and the Board since they know the community the best. Ms. Standerfer would be the facilitator. 7. Many libraries do 2-year plans, but 3 years is standard. The goals are focused, but changes can be made in the Activity Plan to respond to changes in the community. After a 3-year period, another survey can be done or new focus groups can be formed. The Activity Plan is used to do specific things that will have impact in the community. Ms. Garcia thanked her for the information and said the Board will be discussing this further. Minutes: Personnel Committee August 14, 2023; Board of Trustees August 14, 2023; Policy Committee August 23, 2023; Special Board of Trustees August 28, 2023 Mr. Hedman moved and Ms. Garcia seconded the motion to approve all minutes as presented. Roll call: Forristall-yes, Garcia-yes, Millen-yes, Reifsteck-yes, Schumacher-yes, Hedman-yes, Pesola-yes, Milschewski-yes. Carried 8-0. Correspondence: Ms. Augustine read a letter of resignation from a part-time library employee who is leaving to assist a family member. Public Comment: Mr. Mike Krempski discussed the oath the Board members took and said they swore to uphold both Constitutions. He said the people have the authority to give the Board instruction per Article 1, Section 5 of the Illinois Constitution. Further, he said the Board swore to vote without favor, partiality or prejudice. Mr. Krempski said failure to carry out the law in good faith is punishable by law. He discussed various maxims of the law and asked the Board to please study the documents they swore to uphold. Ms. Molly Krempski thanked the Board for taking the oath and had given each Board member a copy of the Illinois Constitution. She asked them to pay attention to the Preamble which says that the state was formed for the purpose of seeking God's blessings. She also referred to the Bill of Rights. Section 20 prohibits communications that display depravity or lack of virtue. She said there was an article from the ALA President whose beliefs are different from the constitutional government. She said people may come before the Board that push the same beliefs and Ms. Krempski is counting on the Board to stand up to the people/groups because the Board members have an obligation to the oath they took. She said that state funding will be withheld if the library does not follow the state laws and Ms. Krempski called that extortion. Now that the oath has been taken, she asked the Board to uphold the Constitution regarding material selections for this library. Ms. Brynn Krempski read a Q&A regarding depravity, the oath and Constitution. She also asked if materials should be included in the library, if the majority of the staff or patrons favor the materials, even if they infringe on the rights of the people that are protected by the Constitutions? She said the Library Trustees, by taking the oath, have agreed to the terms of the Constitution. Page 3 of 5 Friends of the Library Report: Ms. Smithmeyer said the Friends of the Library did not meet today, but they postponed their meeting to the following Monday. She said the used book sale made over $8,000 and the remainder of the books were donated to the public, which was well-received by them. Over 4,000 books were given away. Staff Comment: None Report of the Treasurer: Financial Statement and Payment of Bills Treasurer Milschewski reported there were no big bills this month, but the final cleaning bill was received from the former cleaning service. She moved to pay the bills as follows and Ms. Garcia seconded. Accounts Payable: $16,202.04 Payroll: $39,157.00 Total: $55,359.04 Roll call: Forristall-yes, Garcia-yes, Millen-yes, Reifsteck-yes, Schumacher-yes, Hedman-yes, Pesola-yes, Milschweski-yes. Carried 8-0. Report of the Library Director: Director Augustine noted the following: she listed the special programs coming up, reported there were city-wide internet issues one day, the new cleaning company has begun and the library hosted the Hometown Days musical entertainment during one day of the festival. She displayed a book written by staff member Mike Curtis, who also donated a copy to the library. There are 2 new part-time staff members, however, 2 have also resigned. A donation of hand sanitizer was received from the Police Department. Ms. Augustine reminded the Board that the library will be closed on September 29th for PUG day training. City Council Liaison: None Standing Committees: The Policy Committee previously met and Ms. Pesola said policy approvals will be discussed in New Business. Unfinished Business: HVAC Update Director Augustine said Trico and Ted Milschewski will be at the library tomorrow to inspect VAV's and equipment in the ceiling. Strategic Planning Discussion/Action The Board discussed this topic in more detail and questioned if it should be an in-house project or done with Ms. Standerfer's assistance. It is not budgeted, but there is savings from using a new cleaning company. Ms. Augustine checked her references and she is highly recommended by other libraries. There was concern that she does not bring perspectives from other libraries, but is more just a facilitator and if there is value to this. The timeline of this project would allow for expenses to be spread over more than one FY. It was suggested that a lead person could be appointed and then bring the consultant in after the project starts. Other comments were: A community needs assessment is critical to kick off this project. Ms. Augustine had initiated a community survey to get started. Survey Monkey collects the data, so the value of the consultant doing the survey for $11,000 was questioned. Another opinion is that the administration of the survey and getting replies takes time, so there is value in spending money on this phase. On the other hand, if the library is doing the work on the survey, recording responses, what are we saving? Ms. Standerfer spoke of responses as being in the single digits. The library has an internal resource in the marketing person. A planning team is needed, comprised of a staff member, board member and the Director. Another suggestion was to have Ms. Standerfer do the Learn & Dream phases and the Do phase be done in-house. The scope of this project is massive, part time employees are not paid enough to do this. A facilitator keeps the “ball rolling”. Ms. Page 4 of 5 Standerfer laid out 8 months of time for this Plan. President Garcia asked each Board member for their input on this matter. Some were supportive of having Ms. Standerfer do the first phase since it gathers the info that influences everything else. They thought the survey could be started in-house and bring her in for the last 2 phases. Some felt the entire project should be done by her since the project stopped when initiated 3 years ago. She only provides templates for the survey and should this item be re-negotiated? Getting Ms. Augustine's input was recognized as being valuable. It was also suggested to look at other proposals to better make a decision. Cost must be considered as well since there are many projects at the library that the library cannot afford now. President Garcia asked Ms. Augustine to look at 2 other possible consultants and Ms. Augustine noted that Ms. Standerfer is the only one who does ala carte. Mr. Forristall said that we must have the same scope of work in order to compare costs. Future Library Planning Discussion/Action Ms. Garcia referred to a memo from City Administrator Bart Olson which prioritized the library needs discussed in a previous meeting with him. The first priority is the electric panel breaker in the older part of the library. The Facilities Manager Jesus Navarro contacted an electrical contractor for a quote. The cost estimate is $3,693 which is below the Director's staff authorization level so the library can move forward with this. The second request is for an RFP to be drafted. Mr. Navarro contacted Trico for a quote for specs for the RFP. Mr. Forristall questioned the fact that Trico would draft the RFP and then possibly do the work, though the price is very reasonable. Ms. Augustine will clarify that with the city to avoid a conflict of interest. Regarding the IT room HVAC, Mr. Navarro said the mini-split discussed at the last meeting is feasible for this project. The mini-split quote is for $10,300. Electrical work is needed prior to that and that quote is $2,068 for total of $12,368. The scope of work has not been determined yet. Mr. Navarro is still working on a proposal for the building LED lighting and has a meeting with Verde next week. The Board had previously asked for a list of lifespans for building equipment which was provided by Mr. Navarro. Mr. Hedman noted the exterior wall paint was done about 5 years ago, not the 11 years as indicated on the report. Ms. Milschewski asked for a list that shows all dates. Ms. Augustine is updating a list that Dixie DeBord had begun. New Business: Disaster Plan Update This plan was originally created in 2019, updated in 2021 and now. Ms. Augustine added these categories: purpose, succession and definitions in the policy. She also briefly described the many additions to the policy. Approve Reference Service Policy Ms. Pesola said this is a new policy, it was reviewed at a committee level and is brought forward to the Board for their approval. She moved to approve the policy as written and Ms. Milschewski seconded. Roll call: Garcia- yes, Millen-yes, Reifsteck-yes, Schumacher-yes, Hedman-yes, Pesola-yes, Milschewski-yes, Forristall-yes. Carried 8-0. Approve Updated Public Comment Policy This revised policy was also reviewed at the committee level. Ms. Pesola entertained a motion for approval as presented and Ms. Milschewski seconded. Roll call: Millen-yes, Reifsteck-yes, Schumacher-yes, Hedman-yes, Pesola-yes, Milschewski-yes, Forristall-yes, Garcia-yes. Carried 8-0. Page 5 of 5 Approve Updated YPL Statements Ms. Augustine said these statements (Mission/Value/Vision) will be updated with the Strategic Plan. The Library Bill of Rights had no changes. The American Library Association's of Code of Ethics was previously titled Code of Ethics. Number 9 was added to “G” Code of Ethics statement. Ms. Schumacher said she struggled with this particular statement in the committee meeting and said she preferred that the ALA did not dictate policy. She would rather have local control where the Board can protect the rights of the U.S. and State constitutions, even if ALA does not. Ms. Pesola moved to approve the Item G—American Library Association's Code of Ethics. Ms. Milschewski seconded. Roll call: Reifsteck-no, Schumacher-abstain, Hedman-yes, Pesola- yes, Milschewski-yes, Forristall-yes, Garcia-yes, Millen-yes. Carried: 6-yes, 1-no, 1-abstain. Ms. Pesola moved to approve item “H” Public Library Trustee Ethics Statement as presented and Ms. Milschewski seconded the motion. Roll call: Schumacher-yes, Hedman-yes, Pesola-yes, Milschewski-yes, Forristall-yes, Garcia-yes, Millen-yes, Reifsteck-yes. Carried 8-0. Approve Updated YPL Board ByLaws Ms. Augustine said the ByLaws were revised in 2018. There were many changes made to this ByLaws revision. Mr. Hedman noted that Article VIII requires that notice be given prior to approval of the By-Laws. He said notice needs to be given at this meeting that the amended ByLaws will be addressed at the next meeting. A motion was made by Ms. Milschewski and seconded by Ms. Garcia to table the ByLaws until the next meeting. Ms. Milschewski asked to see old language vs. new language when changes are made, in order to see the changes. Additional Business: Mr. Hedman noted that pdf page 65 (Mission/Values/Vision Statements) in the packet, is the result of the Strategic Planning begun in 2019. Adjournment: There was no further business and the meeting adjourned at 8:39pm on a motion by Ms. Garcia and second by Ms. Milschewski.

Library Operations We had our annual fire alarm and panel inspection with Fox Valley Fire & Safety and in coordination with TK Elevator for the elevator alarm inspection. We also had to have the batteries on the fire panel replaced – 3 years old. We closed the library at 4:00 on 9/28 because the Homecoming parade route was changed to run directly in front of the library. This would give staff time to leave before the parade line up started in the parking lot behind the library. A representative from our cleaning company was here to do a walk- 21 through of the library and go over a few concerns we have with the quality and amount of time spent to clean each night. While the library was closed for our staff in-service day on 9/29, the carpet in the entire building was deep cleaned and the bathroom floors scrubbed by our cleaning service. The library will be moving into a group service agreement under the city for our alarm monitoring services with ADS. The contract will be for 5 years and the price will be locked in for the initial term of the agreement. We will be saving $16.03 per month from what we are currently paying. Outreach We hosted the Chamber of Commerce Business Women Connect monthly meeting with 35 members in attendance. We will host this meeting again in November. Y115, Yorkville Education Foundation, and the Yorkville Public Library hosted a Storywalk program at Heartland Circle for our community. There were over 400 kids in attendance and we had a long line the entire event to visit our table and spin our wheel for a prize. Our ELL (English Language Learners) adult classes are up to 30 students. Last month they held an open house and picked up more students. They are 30 students and 13 volunteer tutors who meet 8 times a week with 2 classes on Tuesday (am & pm) and one on Saturday. There are Spanish, Romanian, Russian, and Mongolian language speaking students. They are meeting in the Quiet Reading Room, Staff Lounge, and Board Room. We have 5 class tours scheduled with the Y115 Life and Academics program for students with special needs for the end of October. There will be 3-4 students and their job coach from the Vocational Education Program with Y115 coming to the library on a daily basis for volunteer work. We are currently working on a schedule for them. Staff Several of our staff members met after work at Flight for a Sunshine Committee get-together. We had 13 staff members attend the PUG (PrairieCat Users Group) Day conference at Waubonsee Community College. We treated this day as a staff in-service day. Other Boundless is our new e-book platform replacing Axis 360/eRead Illinois. When you open the Axis 360 app, it will prompt you to download the new Boundless app. All reading history should migrate to the new platform. For the past few weeks several libraries have been experiencing bomb threats through their online chat service on their websites. The Illinois State Police and the FBI are now investigating. For some libraries, this is their 3rd threat they have received. (Poplar Creek, Schaumburg, Addison, Aurora all branches, Fountaindale, Crystal Lake, Oak Park). I attended a RAILS online discussion with other public library directors to discuss the recent experiences with bomb threats and ways that RAILS can help our libraries. There was an opportunity to share advice and best practices. 22 We received a check from Fidelity Charitable Donor-Advised Fund grant from local Family Giving Fund. The check was for $100 and will be used to purchase items for our Library of Things collection. I will send a thank you note to the family. Our local directors’ group met at our library on the 9/28 for our quarterly meeting. When the meeting ended, I gave the directors a tour of our facility.

Best regards, Alayne Hopkins Programs & Services Director 36 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Yorkville Public Library is a valued organization with a dedicated board and staff that serve the growing population of Yorkville and Kendall County. Like many public libraries across the country, YPL has many building and service needs, and must prioritize some over the others. This may be more open hours, increased outreach to targeted audiences, or reallocating space. As outlined in our proposal, Library Strategies uses several tools to engage and incorporate inputs from a wide range of internal and external stakeholders. We can tailor a plan to fit your budget and timeline. We propose a four-phase series of services: 1.Preparation, data analysis, trend research, and peer benchmarking (optional) 2.Stakeholder input: community survey and staff survey (optional), one-on-one interviews (optional), and staff and Board SOAR sessions (optional) 3.Community engagement: Community retreat or focus groups 4.Year 1 implementation planning with administration and staff (optional) This process results in a tailored, actionable strategic plan, and numerous secondary deliverables intended to document the process and underscore the needs and priorities identified in the plan: •Community and staff survey summary reports •SOAR analyses write-ups and notes •Focus group/community retreat notes •Executive summary of key interview takeaways •Draft strategic plan with prioritized goals •New mission statement and core values statement •Finalized strategic plan + tracking dashboard •Presentation on data and feedback to YPL strategic planning team, administrative team, and other designated individuals •Implementation plan with measurable objectives We believe the resulting strategic plan will set YPL on course to continue its responsiveness to varied community interests and build a dynamic future for the Library and community. 37 KEY PERSONNEL / PROJECT TEAM CINDY FESEMYER is a lead consultant with Library Strategies and principal at Fesemyer Consulting LLC.

Rapid Results Planning™ is tailored to yield maximum community input yet focused results, all on an aggressive timetable, typically 4-6 months from initiation to completion. Phase 1: Preparation, Data Analysis, and Benchmarking Strategic Planning Committee Meeting Library Strategies recommends forming a Strategic Planning Steering Committee at the outset if one has not already been organized. This committee will oversee the process, provide local context and insights, identify key leaders and influencers, and help ensure the final plan is inclusive and comprehensive. We recommend that the Steering Committee be made up of a selection of members from the following groups: • Library leadership • One or two Library Board members • Friends of the Library leadership • City government representatives as deemed appropriate • Community leaders representing at least two of the following: o Business o Philanthropy o Education o Arts & Culture The role of the Strategic Planning Committee is to: • Provide critical information on the library service area • Identify key stakeholders to engage in the process • Assist with invitations/logistics for community engagement activities • Approve and oversee the work plan and timeline • Review drafts of the strategic plan The initial meeting of the Planning Committee with Library Strategies will address the following agenda items: • Clarify roles/responsibilities for data gathering, reporting, logistics, etc. • Agree on the process and steps of the planning process, including expectations for timing of 44 deliverables. •Identify critical documents and data to inform the planning process (library usage data, demographic projections, relevant local government documents, etc.). •Establish initial focus areas for community input. These could include staffing models, specific communities, technology infrastructure, operational considerations (such as hours of operation), alternative models for library service delivery, etc. •Identify individuals who will be invited to participate in the community engagement phase, with careful attention given to including a broad representation of residents – both library users and non-users. Community and Library Assessment Library Strategies will conduct a data audit and assessment of each Library’s service area demographics, reports, library services, and resources. This audit will review: •Census data + trends for each community, including: Age distribution / Household status Race and Ethnic background / Special populations Income / Education Population/ Geographic distribution Economic development projections •Library data (including branch by branch breakdowns, if applicable/available): Circulation numbers and trends for the past 3-5 years Library visits / programming attendance Technology access and usage Community outreach efforts Budget and financial sources Staffing patterns Board of Trustees structure and governance Friends/Foundation fundraising model / patterns Public relations and marketing As part of an in-person visit, a lead Library Strategies consultant will visit Yorkville Public Library. Peer Analysis and Benchmarking (optional) With input from the Library, the Library Strategies consultant will select 2-3 peer libraries to benchmark. Peers will be identified based on similar community size, community environmental distinctions, library 45 size (staff, collections, usage), etc. Key areas of interest to YPL for benchmarking are likely to include budgets, funding sources and amounts, staff and volunteer workers, impact of Friends, facilities, outreach services, collections, and resources. Specific benchmark targets will be agreed between the Library and the Library Strategies consultant to assure appropriate scope of this activity. Phase 2: Stakeholder Input Community Survey The Library Strategies consultant will design and administer a community survey. This tool will explore the interests and needs of the Yorkville service area both quantitatively and qualitatively. This may include (but are not limited to): • Awareness and perception of the Library • Satisfaction with Library services • Barriers to using the Library and its services • Facilities needs • Diversity, equity, and inclusion concerns • Opportunities for outreach • Future directions for the Library to best meet needs and expectations Our consultant will present a draft survey to Library leadership and the Steering Committee and make final revisions as necessary. The survey will be posted online using SurveyMonkey. Library Strategies can also format the questionnaire for print; the Library will be responsible for converting print survey responses to an appropriate electronic format. Library Strategies will assist in identifying the best outlets and a promotional strategy to encourage broad-based participation in the survey (online and physical outlets such as local media, churches, schools, businesses, municipalities and townships, partnership organizations, etc.). If it is determined to be beneficial during the preliminary Steering Committee meetings, the online survey form may be translated to facilitate feedback from non-English speaking residents, at an additional cost as outlined in the Project Budget. Staff Survey (optional) An online staff survey will be designed to elicit information from all staff concerning library operations, programs, services, communication, aspirations, and overall morale. The responses to this survey will also be collected via SurveyMonkey. A summary of the responses, as well as the raw data, will be made available to Library leadership. However, respondents will be ensured anonymity to encourage candor and a high response rate. Board and Staff SOAR Sessions (optional) 46 These sessions provide an opportunity for internal stakeholders to offer their insights and express concerns in a collaborative environment, and typically yield insights that complement and build upon the staff survey (see below). SOAR exercises share much in common with the better-known SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) methodology. However, the latter is a deficit-based approach while SOAR is optimized to uncover and capture the advantages, partners, and other assets that equip the Library to fulfill its work. This tends to be the more fruitful point of departure. For the staff session, the consultant advises crafting an invitee roster that cuts across the organizational chart. Doing so will enfranchise part- as well as full-time employees; intermix frontline and back-of- house staff in a way that gives extra depth to the conversation; and provide a voice (and literal seat at the table) to the pages, clerks and assistants who so often feel “unseen” in their library’s decision- making processes. Note: These are suggestions rather than requirements core to the integrity of the process. Group composition can be discussed in greater detail at a later date. One-on-One Interviews (optional) In preparation for Phase 3, the Library Strategies consultant will conduct 4-6 confidential phone interviews with key community members- long-serving Library trustees, Council members, lead government officials, key community leaders, and similar stakeholders. The list of interviewees will be developed in consultation with the Library Director and Steering Committee. Ordinarily, questions focus on interviewees’ perceptions of their community’s most salient needs, what the Library can do (and is not already doing) to address them, and key challenges the Library is facing in its mission to enhance residents’ quality of life. Phase 3: Community Engagement Depending on preferences of the Library and community, Phase 3 Community Engagement will include an in-person community retreat, or a series of virtual or in-person community focus groups designed to maximize opportunities for community members to participate. Library Strategies’ initial recommendation is to conduct a community retreat or a series of three focus groups (in-person or virtual) to encourage participation from a wide range of individuals. This recommendation is flexible and can be adjusted to meet the needs and preferences of the Library. The Steering Committee should be prepared to help develop the invitation list (usually twice as many people as you realistically expect to attend) and then personally invite them by mail, phone, or email. In total, we recommend 30-40 participants for this community engagement phase, whether it is one in- person community retreat or a series of focus groups. 47 In addition to facilitating the development of strategic goals, brainstorming, and discussions during the retreat or focus groups will contribute to updating the Mission and Values statements for the Library. In-Person Community Retreat (Option 3.1) The retreat gathers a cross-section of users, non-users, diverse populations, and key stakeholders all in one room. By including many participants from all walks of life, Yorkville Public Library gains valuable insights while securing early buy-in and future advocates for its vision. The in-person retreat agenda is usually structured as follows: A short presentation by the Director on the current state/activities of the Library. This gives all participants a common baseline understanding of what the Yorkville Public Library currently does – and how. A short presentation/discussion on regional and national trends. The Library Strategies team will offer a short primer on “Libraries 101,” with an emphasis on emerging trends in this dynamic field. Trends reviewed by the consultant might include technology, makerspaces, literacy programs, partnerships, community outreach, removal of barriers to service, etc. The two-fold goal is to offer participants a sense of what might be possible in terms of future directions and to encourage them to think broadly about the YPL’s role in the community. A large group, “big picture” visioning session and development of goal areas. This part of the retreat invites participants to brainstorm broad, strategic visions for the community and consider the Yorkville Public Library’s role as a contributor to residents’ quality of life. In anticipation of addressing strategic goals, the group may review and identify potential modifications to the Library’s Mission and Values to enhance engagement with the strategic goals. Following the Mission and Values discussion, this session will shift to discussions about strategic “goal areas” where the Library should concentrate its attentions over the next five years. These areas might pertain to technology, advocacy, marketing and outreach, collection management, workforce development, cooperative opportunities, etc. Specific “goal areas” will be identified through and driven by the multiple community inputs to ensure relevance to the Yorkville Public Library. Small group strategy sessions. Towards the end of the day, participants will be encouraged to dive deeper by brainstorming specific strategies likely to move the Library closer to its big, overarching goals. The consulting team will mediate these smaller discussions and facilitate a share-out at the end of the retreat. Focus Groups (Option 3.2; virtual or in-person) The focus group process also involves representatives from a cross-section of the community: library users, non-users, diverse populations, and key stakeholders. Library Strategies and the Steering Committee will discuss options for the composition of the focus group invitees, which may be selected to bring together groups of similar stakeholders or a diversity of stakeholders, to provide optimal energy to the discussions. Each focus group typically includes 8-10 participants and lasts 2 hours. 48 Like the community retreat format, focus groups are the culmination of the community engagement activities. Quantitative and qualitative information gleaned through the data analysis, community survey, and interviews are used to drive the content of the focus group discussions. This provides a responsive and localized discussion platform for the focus groups. As a tool to keep the focus group on track during the two-hour meeting, the facilitator may share a basic agenda: 1.Introduction to Library Strategies and our role in the process 2.Brief review of the What and Why for this Strategic Planning project 3.Review and group comments related to the Yorkville Public Library Mission and Values statements 4.3-6 broad goal areas for the group to explore, add onto, modify, and/or discard Suggested starting goal areas are based on the outcomes of the earlier community engagement activities and defined during the preparation period. While each of these options is available, what is “best” will be determined in consultation with Yorkville Public Library leadership and may include a retreat, virtual focus groups, and/or in-person focus groups. Phase 4: Crafting Strategic and Implementation Plans Strategic Plan & Dashboard Tool Following the community retreat or focus groups, the Library Strategies consultant will draft a short, concrete Strategic Plan (typically four pages) for review by the Steering Committee. The plan will also include new or revised Mission and Values statements. The Steering Committee will determine whether the goals and strategies in the draft plan are realistic, given finite resources, timetables, and their own evolving understanding of the community’s needs. Our consultant will then make revisions based on the feedback for final approval. Ultimately, Yorkville Public Library’s planning document will be translated into an easy-to-interpret graphic. This illustrative accompaniment can be presented to the full board of trustees, other governing bodies as applicable, and the community at large. Library Strategies has found that long-range planning only truly works if it becomes a part of regular, daily culture. Therefore, Library Strategies will also provide an easy-to-use dashboard measurement tool to track the progress of the Strategic Plan over time. We recommend that the board review progress on the Strategic Plan at every regularly scheduled meeting. Implementation Plan (optional) To move the plan forward, our process can also include a consultant-facilitated implementation 49 planning step. Using the goals outlined in the approved Strategic Plan, staff collaborate on a detailed operating work or implementation plan to reach the Plan goal, with a primary focus on year 1 objectives. Hallmarks of an Implementation Plan include: •Action steps for reaching the strategic goals •Resources needed (funding, staffing, strategic partners, etc.) •Responsibility delegation •Deadlines for task completion •Outcomes or measures for each strategy The Implementation Plan is usually an internal working document and not approved by the Board. In that way, it remains flexible and most useful to Library administration and staff. This Implementation Plan should become a regular discussion item at staff meetings and updated by the Library staff at least annually. 50 TIMELINE The tentative timeline presented here is flexible and represents a typical strategic planning process. The timeline will be adjusted at the initiation of the project to accommodate key stakeholders of the Library and the deadline for approval of the strategic plan.

EXCLUSIONS OR EXCEPTIONS There are no exclusions or exceptions. 53 REFERENCES Library Strategies has worked with hundreds of libraries across the country, offering our unique approach to planning designed specifically for public libraries. Here are highlights of other planning processes Library Strategies has conducted in recent years: Dubuque County Library District (IA) Dubuque County Library District (DCLD) hired Library Strategies in 2020-21 to conduct a hybridized strategic planning process – one that incorporated site visits alongside robust but largely remote community engagement activities. DCLD faces some fairly unique operational and perception challenges, most stemming from the system’s proximity and relationship to other libraries: patrons in Dubuque County are also served by independent libraries operated by and for the cities of Dubuque, Dyersville and Cascade. DCLD services Asbury plus the most rural subsets of the community – a population of approx. 38,000. Library Strategies’ catered process reflected these special circumstances. Between remote and in-person community engagement efforts, consultants ultimately incorporated feedback from nearly 300 community members and staff into an actionable 2021-2027 roadmap for DCLD. Contact: Amanda Vazquez, Director - amandav@dubcolib.org, (563) 582-0008 Community Library Network (ID) Library Strategies provided the Community Library Network with a comprehensive Strategic Planning RRP™ process in 2022 to help the Library maintain direction and focus during its upcoming service growth initiatives and building projects. Services included staff and community surveys, stakeholder interviews, and a community retreat. Particular attention was paid to both individual library needs and the overarching goals for the Network. Contact: Amy Rodda, former Director – arodda07@gmail.com, (303) 658-2640 Wilsonville Public Library (OR) Library Strategies facilitated the Wilsonville Public Library’s strategic planning process during 2020-2021. The delivery of our RRP™ process was a hybrid project, with some of the work being completed virtually during the Covid-19 pandemic and an in- person implementation planning session to close out the project.

Background This item was last discussed at the August 28th Library Board meeting. At that meeting, the Board reviewed an informational memo about various Library building capital projects, including relative priority rankings for each project. Since that meeting, the City and the Library staff have been working to gather the following information (listed in order of priority): 1. Electrical panel breaker improvement in the old library. Board requested this be done immediately. a.Facilities Manager Jesus Navarro has a quote from Marshall Electric for around $5,000 At time of packet creation, he is still reviewing the quote for proper scope. Assuming he recommends us to proceed, we would look to get authorization at a staff level (assuming the Library procurement laws allow it) and for the work to be done in 3-4 weeks after approval. Finance Director Fredrickson has reviewed this project and opined that it can be done without a further budget amendment. Update: Work started Wed, Oct 4 and finishing on Fri, Oct 6 if needed. 2.Chiller replacement. Board requested that an RFP be drafted immediately and for the project to go to bid as soon as possible. a.Mr. Navarro has been in contact with Trico, who has provided a quote to draft the specs of the RFP for ~$4,000. Staff feels this is a reasonable price for the work product and we do not think there’s anyone on City staff that can do this work in- house. Trico has opined that it will take 30 days to draft the RFP. Once this RFP is complete, it is the staff’s intent to take the project out to bid immediately. While our current in-house cost estimates for the project are in the $450,000 range and the Library only has $200,000 budgeted for this project, we think there is value in testing the market through the RFP and then making a decision on budgeting after the bids are received. We have been told by Trico that delivery times for the chiller equipment are around 6 months from actual order date. This will require a budget amendment when authorized. Update: at the 9/11/23 Library Board Meeting, the trustees wanted to get a few quotes from other engineering firms.

The emergency xtures were not addressed over the years so most of them have failed. The library is interested in smart xtures with sensors on the interior and photocells on the exterior. Phase by phase, we plan to upgrade the library to LED. There will be brand new Philips xtures in the troffers and can lights and on the exterior, and while the remaining xtures will be retrotted with a new Philips lamp and driver. The new LEDs will be maintenance free and are set to last 70,000-100,000 hours. The new lighting will be consistent throughout and will transform the look & feel of the library. There is a 1 year warranty through us with the option to extend it every year. Every emergency xture in the library has been accounted for in this proposal. We will get the library back up to code with the emergency lights. Trim Kit: The can lights will be retrotted with a dimmable LED can trim kit. This will update the aesthetic of the lighting by closing the hole in the ceiling. The xture lays ush against the ceiling, putting more light into the space and permanently removing maintenance issues with ballasts.  New LED retrot xtures replace existing uorescent lamps, using the existing housing. This will provide an upgraded 68 aesthetic while improving illumination and light distribution. These xtures have an optional smart sensor technology which saves an additional 30% through the occupancy and daylight harvesting sensors.   Evokits are one of our most popular items, as they both save energy and transform a space. The uorescent lights throughout the facility will be retrotted with Philips tube LEDs and new drivers will be installed to replace existing ballasts. In addition to a much longer lifetime of 70,000 hours for the system, the LED tubes are made of plastic and therefore pose no risk of shattering and releasing harmful mercury-vapor into the space. The existing lenses will be left in place. Incandescent and CFL lamps will be swapped with an LED equivalent lamp.  Verde uses the Philips brand, and can typically accommodate 2700 - 5000k for most lamp types.  We also offer vintage style LEDs, as well as warm-glow technology, which dim lights to 2200k for ambient mood lighting in restaurants.  Wall Mounted Occupancy Sensors: We will be replacing light switches with occupancy sensors, which turn on and off based on motion. This will save additional energy by ensuring lights are not left on when the space is unoccupied. Vacancy Sensors:  Ask us about our vacancy sensors, which means a light needs to be manually turned out, but will turn off after a preset time period.  These sensors save additional energy by avoiding false positives, but depend on a client's 69 preference.  Often, the same light switch can do both functions. Photocells: Photocells control the new exterior LED xtures, so they only operate when there is insucient daylight. This eliminates the issue of needing to manually control a lighting timer which can’t adapt in real time to changes in annual sunlight patterns.  New Pole Heads: The exterior pole heads will be replaced with a new LED pole head. This new xture will eliminate the need for both the metal halide lamp and ballast. This upgrade will signicantly reduce the consumed watts while not compromising illumination.  Optional motion sensors for this xture can be included, dimming or turning off lights when possible for advanced energy savings. WallPack: The exterior wall packs will be replaced with a new LED xture. This new xture will eliminate the need for both the metal halide lamp and ballast. This upgrade will signicantly reduce the consumed watts while not compromising illumination. Additionally, this xture can be installed to wall wash or forward throw lights, mitigating neighbor complaints. 70 Bullet Spot Light: The 30w LED Bullet Flood light provides energy ecient, directional lighting for landscape, outdoor signage, and accent lighting. It's IP65 rated, sealed to prevent dirt, bugs, and moisture, and has shatter-resistant glass. 71 Electricity Savings: 149,994 kWh annually. Trees Planted: 1,685 trees. This is the greenhouse gas equivalent of trees planted to absorb the carbon produced from the blend of electricity in Illinois. The work we do together is important to future generations. Dollars Saved: $16,499 annually. This amount of energy savings will save your building operating costs. Additional savings will be captured in both labor and lamps/ballasts purchased. 72 73 •All materials and installation equipment* *If specialty lifts are required, any additional cost will be approved by you before moving forward. •Utility program paperwork processing •1 year warranty on labor and material, for lighting and lighting controls •Recycling of existing equipment, where applicable Phase 1 - Floor 2 (entire 2nd floor includes stairwells, excludes can lights) QTY Price Prevailing Wage Subtotal T8 4ft 4K 8.9W 1600lm Type A/C Specication Sheet 94 $13.50 27.00%$1,611.63 A19 4K 12.2W 1100lm E26 67 $12.00 27.00%$1,021.08 T5 HO 4ft 4K 24W 3500lm Type C Specication Sheet for Tube 63 $29.00 27.00%$2,320.29 Driver T8 2L Specication Sheet for Driver 46 $30.00 27.00%$1,752.60 EvoKit CLKE 2x4 4K 29W 4200lm SWZCS P4 Specication Sheet 35 $180.00 27.00%$8,001.00 PL VL 3/35/4K 11W 1500lm G24d/G24q TypeB Specication Sheet 35 $32.00 27.00%$1,422.40 Driver T5 HO 2L Specication Sheet for Driver 24 $37.00 27.00%$1,127.76 74 EvoKit CLKE 2x2 4K 24W 3200lm SWZCS P4 Specication Sheet 12 $180.00 27.00%$2,743.20 H.O.
