Elk River Public Library Board <br />April 26th, 2022 <br />5.1 New Business <br />Page 2 <br />a. Introduction of new Library Services Coordinator Lori Lundstrom <br />■ Lori Lundstrom introduced herself. <br />b. Review standing agenda item list for the year <br />■ The board agreed to bump the indoor walk through of the library to <br />July and do the outdoor grounds walk through at that time as well. <br />Commissioner Keifenheim suggested that with new board members <br />and a new librarian, it would be better to wait until the July meeting <br />to do when they will be able to give informed input. The board also <br />agreed to leave the standing agenda items for the July meeting on the <br />agenda for 2022. <br />■ Commissioner Voss did not get the packet through her e-mail, so she <br />requested that Recording Secretary Larson resend it to her along with <br />the current list of prioritized Capital Improvement Program items. <br />Secretary Larson passed around the current CIP priority list for <br />everyone to review. <br />■ Mr. McCormick suggested that the board give their annual report <br />with the library in October along with new librarian Ms. Lundstrom. <br />This gives time to prepare. The board will plan to review their goals <br />in at the July board meeting. Mr. Dalton will let the City Council <br />know that Ms. Lundstrom will be attending one of the next Council <br />meetings to introduce herself and that the board will be working on <br />their goals. <br />5.2 Old Business <br />a. Updates on summer outreach opportunities for the board to <br />participate in <br />■ Chair Boelter explained to the new librarian that the board's focus <br />used to be more on the building and grounds. The board then took <br />the past couple of years to think about future goals. The board would <br />like to focus on connecting, supporting, and promoting the Elk River <br />library to the community. Chair Keifenheim reiterated this point of <br />connecting the library and the city patrons. The board talked about <br />some of the events such as Elk Riverfest and the farmers market that <br />they could attend with the library. <br />The board asked Ms. Larson to send the Ms. Lundstrom a list of city <br />events that the librarian could attend. They also requested that Ms. <br />Lundstrom then send Ms. Larson what the library is planning so the <br />board members can contact her to let her know if they would like to <br />attend as well. The board members are willing to attend and support <br />the library at as many events as they can. Chair Boelter stated that <br />she would like herself or another board member to be present at the <br />summer reading kickoff event. <br />1�N'EAE 1 11 <br />MATURE <br />
