Page 2 CORRESPONDENCE: Secretary Weatherbe read a letter from Mrs. Margaret Garry complimenting the staff at the Easton Drive Branch Library. Chairman Fricke distributed the July edition of the City Manager's Newletter. LIBRARIAN'S REPORT: Mrs. Molder gave an update on Automated Circulation to the new Trustee and briefly explained the functions and capabilities of the Geac System. Trustee Kriloff was impressed and asked where he might see one in operation. Chairman Fricke suggested he visit the Palo Alto Public Library, although their system is not a Geac System, he could get a good idea as to how an automated system works once it is in operation. Chairman Fricke announced that the Summer Reading Club Party will be held on August 25th, and that Joan Leach, the Children's Librarian, is expecting approximately 225 children to attend. This is the largest group of children in recent years who have completed and fulfilled their contracts both at the Main and Easton Drive libraries combined. Trustee Nagle extended his congratulations to Mrs. Leach for an outstanding job. Mrs. Molder explained that a sign consultant had visited the Library at the request of Mrs. Bergsing and Mr. Escoffier to do a study on a possible sign system within the Library. Trustee Nagle clarified that no committment had been made to purchase a sign system and expressed his interest in seeing same before signs were ordered. Mrs. Molder said the consultant visited the Library at no charge and that the Library was under no obligation to purchase anything. She said Mrs. Bergsing would report further at the next meeting. Secretary Weatherbe reported a 10% increase in circulation at the Branch over last July and a 7% increase last month from June of 1981. Trustee Nagle noted an increase of 38% in Reference statistics which generated a feeling that the increase is due to the relocation of the Reference public service desk. UNFINISHED BUSINESS: Recommendation To Council For P.L.S. Advisory Board Representative - Tabled From The June Meeting: Chairman Fricke felt it best to table this matter until the September meeting when Mrs. Bergsing is present. Election of Officers for 1982-1983: Trustee Weatherbe nominated Trustee Parsons for Chairman. Trustee Parsons declined the position. Trustee Nagle nominated Trustee Weatherbe for Chairman. Trustee Weatherbe also declined. Trustee Nagle then nominated Trustee Fricke, who accepted the nomination. The motion was seconded by Trustee Weatherbe and carried unanimously. Trustee Nagle nominated Trustee Parsons for the office of Secretary, she accepted and the motion was seconded by Trustee Weatherbe and carried unanimously. Trustee Nagle then made mention that the role for Chairman is indeed "President" according to the By-Laws, so therefore the office of Chairman shall be �' changed to President of the Board. Page 3 NEW BUSINESS : Revision of the Meeting Room Application: The new form was not available for approval and therefore the subject was tabled until the September meeting . Trustee Nagle read a letter from the California Association of Library Trustees and Commissioners (CALTAC) . He stated that there would be a meeting held on September 17th , 1982 , at 9 : OOam to discuss library children's services in the 1980' s if anyone wished to attend . President Fricke expressed her sympathy , on behalf of the Board members to Librarian Bergsing on the death of her father-in-law . ADJOURNMENT : The meeting was adjourned at 5 : 20pm with the next meeting scheduled for September 21st , 1982 , at 4 : 30pm in the California Room. Respectfully submitted , Mrs . Joy S . Molder Acting Clerk of the Board JSM/jg LIBRARIAN'S REPORT SEPTEMBER 21st, 1982 On behalf of the staff, I would like to take this opportunity to officially welcome Mr. Leo Kriloff as the newest member of the Burlingame Library Board of Trustees. I apologize that I was called out of town unexpectedly last month, so I wasn't here for the August Board meeting to join the other Board members in welcoming Trustee Kriloff to his first meeting. We are all looking forward to working with you, Leo. AUTOMATED CIRCULATION The CPU for the shared Automated Circulation System is expected in late September at the San Mateo County Library Headquarters. Soon after the installation, training will begin for key personnel in the 8 library jurisdictions sharing the System. For the past three months the library system has been filling out forms to reflect policies and procedures so that Geac, the automated system vendor, could translate them into machine readable form. An indepth plan for converting borrower and book information into machine readable form is also being developed. "Conversion" is the laborious part of the job to implement an automated circulation system and this should begin for most of the participating libraries by January, 1983. All the work done so far has progressed rapidly and `- smoothly through cooperative planning. A contest was held in July for participating staff members to name the agency which is operating the Circulation System and to design a logo. Congratulations and compliments go to Al Escoffier and Nancy Montague of the Burlingame Public Library for designing the winning logo. The winning name for the agency, "Peninsula Automated Consortium of Libraries (PACL) ", was submitted by Elizabeth Daugert of San Mateo Public Library. MEETING ROOM APPLICATION We are hoping to have the revised application form ready for your approval at your September meeting. Primarily, we are trying to make the form clearer and more concise, and to raise the rates for use of the room by non-profit groups. STUDENT BEHAVIOR POLICY A committee of the Reference Department staff has developed a statement describing what is acceptable student behavior in the Library. This is the result of a great deal of trouble with rowdy and noisy students during the last school year. We are hoping that you will adopt the policy and that we can circulate it to the schools as soon as possible. It is our hope that if we establish criteria for acceptable library behavior early in the year, we can avoid a repetition of the disruptive behavior that occurred last year. LIBRARIAN'S REPORT September 21st, 1982 DUNCAN PROPERTY The patio furniture has arrived, and we will give you a brief tour at the meeting. Also, you may wish to dicuss possible future plans for the garden and patio area. I think we may want to solicit and consider several different ideas and arrangements. I am enclosing a copy of the letter from Mr. Somerville, Executive Director of the Peninsula Foundation, outling procedures regarding use of the Duncan Trust Fund. Basically, it summarizes what we have discussed earlier. FARRELL FUND We have received a check for $510.00 from the Julia Farrell Memorial Fund. This is the check we receive each year from the Peninsula Foundation representing interest on the money left in trust by Julia Farrell for the Library. I am enclosing the letters to and from the Foundation and the list of books we purchased with the funds. NORBERG LIBRARY SKETCHES In time for your meeting, we hope to have firm estimates for framing about 12 of the Library sketches that architect Col. Norberg did before the Main Library was built. Mr. Escoffier and I picked out the best and most representative of the drawings, and Al is in the process of getting prices. It appears preliminarily that they could cost $600.00 to $700.00 but I think it is an investment that we should make for historical preservation. CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT Approximately 150 children attended the Summer Reading Club Party on August 25th. 178 children completed the entire program, with well over 200 children participating for at least part of the summer. This was the most successful program we have had in the past several years. It is particularly gratifying since the 1980 Population Statistics have been released and Burlingame has the lowest percentage of children between the ages of 0-9 years of any town in San Mateo County. (see attached chart) . REFERENCE DEPARTMENT Reference Desk transactions were up 24% over August 1981. Interlibrary Loans were up 16%. Activity included materials from the Library of Congress, Ohio Wesleyan University and Skokie Public Library in Illinois. We often borrow books from Stanford University, but this month we had the pleasure of lending them our copy of Michael Rogers' best seller Silicon Valley! Data Pro services are being offered in the Reference Room on a trial basis. The evaluative service contains sections of Microcomputer Software, Word LIBRARIAN'S REPORT September 21st, 1982 Processing and Office Systems. COLLECTION MAINTENANCE Weeding the collection continues with Al Escoffier weeding the 200 's and continuing on into the 300-319's. Barbara Rowe is weeding the oversized collection on the mezzanine and will continue on into the 650-699 's. Warren Wickliffe has targeted October 1 to finish the 800-812's, and Joan Leach expects to have finished her massive fiction weeding project by January 1. This means that by January 1, 1983, the Librarians will have weeded the fiction collection, 000-812 's, the oversized collection, and the Reference Collection in the past two years. Although a major review and weeding of the 813-999's, the California Collection, and Biographies was done in 1977, these areas will be reviewed and weeded again in 1983 as part of our phase II weeding project. The Librarians have been thoughtful in their weeding, using established guidelines. Weeding is essential as a pre-conversion step and because we are literally out of shelf space. Weeding at the Branch Library is being done on a continuous basis for the same reasons stated above. The Librarians ' involved in this project are doing an excellent job. It is not a simple or an easy one. NEW STAFF Dan Sullivan was hired in August to shelve oversized books at the Main Library and to do the daily delivery of materials between the Main Library and the Branch Library. Dan is also assisting as a page at the Branch Library 2 days per week. Dan is our first page hired from the "over 55" group who took the page test in May. We're pleased to have Dan on our staff. Other adult page applicants have been contacted for interviews but have withdrawn from consideration for a variety of reasons. We are still experimenting with this age group as a source to fill page positions and we will continue to assess it over the next few months. PROGRAMS / EXHIBITS In cooperation with the San Mateo Historical Society's County History Month, Burlingame Public Library presented two films on early Burlingame history on August 19th. Exhibits for the month included: Read-A-Movie; August is for Gardeners; Perspectives on Pets; China; and Famous Leos.

MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Library Board of Trustees FROM: Reference Department DATE: September 15, 1982 RE: Standards for student behavior in the library During the past school year, large numbers of students repeatedly came to the library to socialize. The result was excessive noise and disruption to other patrons, and constant interruption in reference service for librarians who attempted to provide some discipline. Since the library is for everyone, we would like to adopt and enforce standards of behavior for students using the library. Our goal is to maintain a reasonable noise level and atmosphere of order so that all patrons and librarians can work effectively. Not only will this allow us to provide better service, but we also believe we can teach respect for the library and for our profession by always being willing to assist patrons and by always being free to provide legiti- mate reference service. We would like to post and to enforce the following policy: Students are welcome in the library for quiet study and recreational use. Reference librarians are always available for assistance. Socializing, loud talking, and other disruptions are not acceptable in the library and offenders will be asked to leave. We feel it is important to get the message across as soon as the school year begins, that if students go to the library to work, they must behave. In order to publicize our policy we wish to do the following: I . City Librarian will contact high school principals to inform them of our standards for student behavior and ask for their assistance in making them known. (letter attached) 2. City Librarian will cobtact police department and inform them of our efforts to establish a strict standard of conduct beginning this year. We may need to call the police for L 5 help in demanding that disruptive students leave. We would expect that the need for this would subside as we make it :clear that students must behave as responsibly as other adult users. 3. Post our policy as a kind of "house rules" for students using the library. 4. Post small signs in centers of tables which say "Quiet study only" to announce our expectations. We hope these initial measures will set a new tone and help us avoid a repeat of the difficulties we (and our patrons) experienced last year. If we can insist on an atmosphere of order and reasonable quiet, we feel we will better serve all people, including students. `Burlingame `Public Librarb 480 PRIMROSE ROAD BURLINGAME, CALIFORNIA 94010 Patricia M. Bergsing (41 S) 342-1038 Librarian September 15, 1982 Dear Principal : Burlingame Public Library is especially busy during the school year, and students are encouraged to use the resources of the library and the services of its staff to help with their studies. During the past academic year, however, many students repeatedly came to the library to socialize, disrupting the work and quiet activity of other patrons and librarians. To insure that the library is a place that all people can use, we have set the following standards for student behavior: Students are welcome in the library for quiet study and recreational use. Reference librarians are always available for assistance. Socializing, loud talking, and other disruptions are not acceptable in the library and offenders will be asked to leave. By enforcing this policy we hope to provide better service to patrons of all ages. We would appreciate any assistance you might provide in making this known to your students and their parents. Sincerely, Patricia M. Bergsing City Librarian PENINSULA COV'IYMNITY FOUNDATION 1204 Burlingame Avenue 1'O. Box 627 Burlingame CA 94010-0627 (415)342-2477 August 24 , 1982 Trustees Burlingame Public Library 480 Primrose Road Burlingame, CA 94010 Gentlemen: We are pleased to establish what will become a continuing relationship between the Peninsula Community Foundation and the Trustees of the Library as a result of the Duncan Estate which is now part of the Foundation. This letter is to follow up a meeting of Ms. Patty Bergsing, Mr. Jerry Coleman, Mr. Albert Horn, and myself. In light of the significance of our relationship and the funds that will be in- volved over the years , it seems prudent for there to be as close an understanding as possible between the two entities regarding the expenditure of these funds. To help in creating that under- standing, and in writing this letter, we have sought the advice of the estate executor, Mr. Paul Lechich. The estate Will stipulated that the funds given to the Library are to be spent in addition to the normal funding by the City of Burlingame. In other words, funds from the Foundation are not to replace public monies coming to the Library. Money from the Duncan Fund will be used according to instruction, that is to enhance and enrich the Library' s collection and services in a manner otherwise impossible. It is reasonable to assume that both the Library Trustees and the Foundation want the funds given to the. Library by the Foundation to be spent on significant, worthy, and needed items. In this way the Duncan Fund will enhance and enrich cultural life of Burlingame as a whole and citizens as individuals. This letter is to confirm procedures to give assurance of this . We ask that recommendations from the Trustees for expenditure of foundation funds designated for the Library be given to the Distribution Albert 1.Horn, Administrative Judge 1.A.Branson Trustees Borel Bank and Trust Company mmlttee Chairman Committee William W.Penaluna Bank of America N.11&S.A.

Some areas of consideration for funding which Mr. Lechich suggested include a contingency fund for items either of an emergency nature or for which no other support exists ; a fund for resources the Library wouldn' t ordinarily be able to purchase such as exceptional books, books on antiques (the wish of the Duncans) , and new services. We look forward to working with you. Sincerely, ? r BIL LE Executive Director S PENINSULA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 1204 Burlingame Avenue P.O.

San Mateo - $1, 283, 034 The combined total of $2 ,042, 300 is a 38. 23% increase from the 1977/78 base amount of $1, 477,419. In accordance with our agreement for library services the 1980-81 consideration ($90, 000) is adjusted to $124,407 for 1982-83. This is a 13. 35% increase from your $109, 755 amount in 1981-82. Burlingame is agreeable to the current 2/3 , 1/3 division of funds with San Mateo. The monthly amounts would, therefore, be: Burlingame - $6,911 monthly San Mateo - 3,456 monthly Since our agreement is effective July lst, we request a retro- active adjustment for July 1 to September 30th. This would be an additional $2, 442 for Burlingame and $1, 221 for San Mateo. Please let me know if you have any questions. We also should get together in early 1983 to discuss next year ' s agreement.
