A. Decision to close Library early day before Thanksgiving 2016 – Closing early the day before the Thanksgiving, Christmas eve and New Year’s holidays has been the practice for the last couple of years. Last year, the Library closed at 3 p.m. the day before Thanksgiving. That would work out well this year. The Christmas Eve and New Year’s holidays occur on a day that is already a short day for Bryan-Bennett. As a result, there is no need to close before Christmas Eve and New Year’s.

B. Purchase additional staff computer to be used for programs

C. Christmas bonus – Each year, the Board discusses year-end bonuses for staff.

D. Per Capita Grant Application

1. Review Serving Our Public 3.0 Standards for Illinois Public Libraries Chapter 6 “Access.”
