ACTION REQUEST (Brief Summary)
Resolution No. 10-XXX approving the Moore Memorial Public Library Reference Policy to assist library staff in providing high quality reference and reader's advisory services. This policy was approved the Moore Memorial Public Library Board of Trustees on Oct. 25, 2010.
BACKGROUND
With the business of many financial, educational, private industry, and governmental entities migrating to the internet, demands for reference assistance are increasing in many areas not formerly handled by public libraries. Library staff can provide consistent, efficient and effective services by utilizing a policy covering the provision of these services.

Approval of this policy will assist Moore Memorial Public Library staff in continuing to provide the highest quality reference and reader's advisory services.
