Library Board Meeting update

At its regularly scheduled meeting yesterday, Mon. Aug. 29th, the Library Board of Control did the following:

• Heard an update from parish engineer Ronnie Landreneau on the new main library project.  He is in the process of selecting an architect for the project.
• Planned for a Board and staff building committee, to work with the parish engineer and the architect.
• Revised the travel, personnel, and patron behavior policies.  The revised policies will be distributed to all library branches as soon as possible.
• Had first review for proposed changes to the Board bylaws.  These will be on the agenda for vote at the next meeting.
• Voted to decline participation in the BTOP Laptop project, due to the time schedule and requirements for the new main library project.

For further information about any of these matters, please contact Mary at the main library, 363-1369.
