Information

Agenda Item Text:

Continued discussion and possible direction regarding the Library District Bookmobile service.

Background:

Bookmobile service was not included in the Library District budget for FY 2016/17, but the service continued through late December 2016, when the vehicle used for the service broke down.  The BOS held a work session to consider the future of the service on February 21, 2017.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

If approved, the Library District will move ahead with suspending bookmobile service and working to find new ways to serve rural patrons.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

If bookmobile service is not suspended, the Library District will continue to rely on contingency funds to provide the service.  This is not sustainable.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

There are no documents requiring signatures or approval.

Fiscal Impact & Funding Sources (if known):

Bookmobile service was not included in the Library District's FY 2016-17 budget, but the service continued until late December, 2016. Funds are not available to continue this service next year.
