The board of trustees of the
Timberland Regional Library
accepted two-bids for 16 mm film
projectors at its monthly meeting
at the library system's service
center in Lacey January 16.
The board then decided to sell
the remaining six used projectors
to those willing to pay $200 each.
The film projectors are Bell and
Howell and Singer-Graflex models
and still have many years use left.
They, however, are not in the
prime condition necessary for the
constant daily use required by the
library system.
The board was visited by Judy
Louderback who represented
McCleary Real Estate and
provided the board a list of
available properties in West
Olympia and the dma-McCleary
area. The board took the list
under consideration as possibile
sites for a new service center in
the future.
The board also reviewed a
letter by a Chehalis banker which
said the old Sears building in
downtown Chehalis was available
for $1,500 a month rental fee.
Any area seriously considered
for a new service center must
meet several requirements
including local post office able to
handle large volumes of mail,
availability of employable clerks,
location near highways for courier
service to all corners of the library
district, sufficient parking space
and availability of meal facilities.
Mrs. Louise Morrison,
director, reported to the board
that during the last year there was
a dramatic increase in film
bookings. In 1973
Timberland-loaned films had an
audience of 205,502 and in 1974
the audience total increased' to
399,317~ There was also a high
increase in the use of magazines.
Mrs. Raeburn M. Hagen,
Timberland board member from
Aberdeen and member of the
Washington Library Association
Executive Board, outlined Guy.
Dan Evans' budget for the
Washington State Library and
remarked that it was a "bare
bones budget." The board agreed
to support all the expenditures
for the state library proposed in
the governor's budget for the next
biennium.
On recommendation of the
director and based on an employe
survey, the board announced its
intent to amend the personnel
policy so that the official work
week begins midnight Sunday and
ends midnight Sunday.
Previously, the official work week
began and ended on midnight
Friday.
This was scheduled because it
allows many ¢mployes who work
every other Saturday to have
three day weekends. However, the
main reason the majority of
employes disapproved of this
arrangement is that it forced them
to work six days without a day
off.
If this policy is changed no
employe will work a calendar
week without two days off.
The board voted to ratify the
1975 working agreement with the
AFSCME, AFL-CIO, Local 2053.
The working agreement is
basically the same working
agreement from 1974.
The meeting was adjourned
after the board agreed to a
tentative meeting with the
Friends of the North Mason
Library January 25 where they
will discuss plans for a new library
building in Belfair.
