Treasurer’s report:  We received information from the Chairman of the Trustees of the Trust Funds concerning the restrictions on the use of the income of the individual funds and will begin to track the use of these funds this year. 

Library Director’s report:  Summer reading is very popular.  Cindy applied for a Wal-Mart grant to support our tech program.  Marshall Gale will do an occupancy review.  Thirty boxes of books were weeded out.  We are currently not accepting any book donations. 

Library retreat will be re-scheduled for late Sept.  Donna Hanson will be invited to address IT issues. 

Rick Wood reported that the new library benches have been delivered.  The condition of the old benches will be evaluated and possibly combined into one usable bench.  The “Little Library” has been delivered.  It needs to be painted or stained and the location of it needs to be determined.  A plaque will be made noting that the little library is dedicated in the name of Kathy Chisholm. 

Work on staff evaluations and policy revisions are ongoing.

The motion to adjourn at 7:43 was made by Rick and seconded by Shelly.  Approved unanimously.
