PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER BURL NOANI City Librarian Report February 19, 2008 Library Goals for 2008-2009 The City Librarian presented the Library's Goals for fiscal year 2008- 2000, at the City Council Goals session on Saturday, January 26th. Items which would produce an increase in costs were scrutinized. There was some discussion of the library carpet which is planned for replacement this spring. The two floods, one in 1999 and the other in 2003, caused the carpet to de-laminate throughout much of the building. Apparently the concrete floors absorbed the water and gradually de-laminated the carpet. Another goal which was under discussion was the addition of an IT Library Aide to assist with setting up room IT equipment, monitor the Electronic Gallery and assist the Technical Support/Technical Services functions. Burlingame Centennial Celebrations Continue As a member of the Burlingame Centennial Executive Board, the City Librarian attended the entertaining Centennial Variety Show. The Burlingame Historical Society will be releasing the book: Burlingame Centennial- 1908-2008, on February 10th, with a presentation and book signing in the Library's Lane Room. In addition, the series of Centennial Lectures by Russ Cohen, President of the Historical Society continue through April. Burlingame Mural As of this writing, the City Librarian has met with John Kazanjian of J 8s L Construction, for a bid on installing the Burlingame Mural. It was felt by staff that an installation on the south wall of the Reference Room would be a good location. The contractor will be working on a hanging device which will hold the mural on a narrow steel ledge, with the steel continuing up the back of the piece to chains to hooks on the ceiling. The hooks would go directly into the ceiling beams. This seems the most secure means of hanging the piece. I have asked the Burlingame Historical Society Board if they would review the two major issues at this time: a) would the mural remain at the library indefinitely; and b) could the costs for installation be shared by both boards. 1 48o Primrose Road Burlingame•California 94010-4o83 Phone(65o)558-7474•Fax(650)342-6295•www.burlingame.org/library The mural was created in the 1950's for the original City Hall on Park Road. It measures 12' x 7' and weighs over 300 lbs. The City Librarian received a positive response for installation from the Trustees. Peninsula Library System The California State Library's Public Library Foundation and Transaction Based Reimbursements were saved from the initial budget reductions by the Governor. The library community hopes these state subventions for resource sharing will survive the "May revise" and the final state budget. Following meetings with legislators at the recent "Day in the District," the legislators said that it likely would depend upon the state revenue picture in May. The City Librarian is now chair of the PLS Finance Committee. The Committee oversees the PLS and PLAN budgets, and allocates funds for projects and services through the library cooperative. Energy Audit The Library has undergone an energy audit for lighting, as well as heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems. Recommendations include replacement of fluorescent lamps and special ballasts for all tubular lighting. While the new lighting would use less energy and less wattage, the actual light would be brighter and "cleaner." New software and mechanical devices will be installed to assist with reduction of energy for the HVAC systems. All work will continue while the library is open. Primrose Light Well Flood As most of you are aware, the light well on the Primrose side of the building caused a flood several weeks ago during the heavy rains. The outdoor drains in the light well were clogged and covered with vegetation and the water back up and seeped through the windows and the wall. A great deal of water leaked into the compact shelving room and the media areas. I called in Ideal Drying to dry the area and dehumidify the spaces. Fortunately, only one volume suffered damage. We are now negotiating with the Park and Recreation Department to pave the area and do regular maintenance on the drains so this doesn't happen again. Foundation Requests The City Librarian has submitted a revised list of requests to the Foundation for funding. The requests were reviewed by the Foundation Finance Committee and have gone to the Foundation Executive Board. The requests will go to the full Board February 7th. 2 Burlingame Citizen's Academy The Library will participate in the Burlingame City's Citizen's Academy, a group of local citizens who would like to find out how the city works. The Library event will beheld on Wednesday, March 12t", 6:30 PM. The library managers will present an overview of library services and give tours of the library to the participants. Hillsborough Library Service Negotiations The Hillsborough Library Committee, consisting of two Burlingame Library Trustees and two San Mateo Library Trustees, as well as the City Managers and City Librarians of both cities met to discuss Hillsborough negotiations. We expect to meet representatives from Hillsborough sometime in February. Staff Training in Difficult People We will be holding an all staff workshop on Thursday, February 7th on "Dealing with Difficult People." The workshop leader has been vetted by several staff and deemed to be a very good presenter. We are hoping to do more of these 1/2 day workshops, however funding them is a problem. We are meeting with the Human Resource Director to determine if we can pool HR funds with our very small training budget. (We only have $ 2,000.00 for training the over 65 people on our payroll.) I will let you know how this develops. "Shakespeare Comes to Burlingame" We kick off a new series this spring with a selection of events about Shakespeare, the writer, the playwright and the husband. On Sunday, March 16, the San Francisco Shakespeare Festival Players will do "Twelfth Night" in the Lane Room at 1 PM. A second event will presented in partnership with Burlingame's Books, Inc. and will feature author Germain Greer discussing her book "Shakespeare's Wife," to be published in April. Ms. Greer, a longtime feminist, is the author of the 1970 classic "The Female Eunuch," and 9 other books. The final event will feature a lecture by a prominent Stanford scholar on his latest interpretations of Shakespeare's works. The date for this event is yet to be determined.
