Grafton Public Library Board of
Trustees Meeting
Monday,
December 9, 2024, 10:00am
Hybrid Format
Call to order: 10:10 am
Public comment: none
Approve minutes from last
meeting: Approved
Treasurer’s Report: We have already received donations, which
are not from the appeal letters. Sarah
sent her bill for all the moving and replanting of plants due to the
construction. Her bill was a bit
lower than what was budgeted. We do not
have the total figures for the Gingerbread House fundraiser, but it will be much less than last year.
Librarian’s Report: Bill Toomey’s Stories have been a great
success in the past and it is expected it will be well attended next Sunday,
the 15th. The public computer should be
replaced. While the bids for the gingerbread house
Silent Auction were much less than last
year, the event was enthusiastically received and well attended.
Old Business: We received two bids to do the electric
work. Lawrence and Lober’s bid was lower
and the board voted to accept their bid to do the work. The board also voted to
give Michelle permission to go forward with any minor variations in the final
bill for the electrical work, without returning to board for an emergency
meeting for approval. For our long range plans, we do not have the
funds for a new ramp. We need to have
the building painted, which will be discussed at a later date.
New Business: The annual appeal
letters have been sent. We have not yet
heard back from the Select board as to whether or not our budget request has
been approved.
Pending Discussions: Developing a new website. Michelle will check with Morgan to find out
who did the town’s site and it will be addressed at the next meeting.
Internet policy needs to be
updated.
Investment review and green
investing will be discussed at the next TIAA meeting on February 24, 2025
Next Meeting: Monday, 1/27/25 at 10:00am
Adjournment: 10:55am
