II. Library Board of Trustees Minutes
The Trustees unanimously approved the minutes of the January 21,
2020 Trustee Meeting. M/S/C (Altman/Garcia)
III. January Statistics Highlights
It was noted that the Tech Lab statistics increased from 1,000 in
January 2016 to 2,500 in 2019 and then fell to 1,500 in 2020. The
reason for this sharp increase followed by a major decrease is that there
was a change in the way Tech Lab statistics were tallied.

Trustee meeting.
V. Reports
A. City Librarian's Report - Highlights

• David is a 20 hour a week benefited employee for the
library. He also works for A.C.T. as House Manager and

acknowledge volunteer accomplishments and expand scope
of work projects.

• Current number of volunteer hours is 2,560 for the fiscal
year 2019-2020. Goal is to increase volunteer hours by

VI. Old Business

casting or precision tooled bronze will last the longest.
C. Procedure for Hourly Development Reimbursement
No Update
VII. New Business
A. Library Director Priorities for 2020
The City Librarian's main concerns and focus for 2020 will be in the
following areas.
• Census - Direct attention to the role the library staff will
play in helping its patrons understand the census and
provide the necessary information for them to comply with
census instructions.
Staff Training - In order to cope with the increase of
homeless patrons and those patrons suffering different
stages of mental illness, training will be provided to give
staff the tools to be effective in dealing with these issues.
Equity - The library Racial Equity Committee was instituted to
take a look at equity issues within the library staff. The
purpose is to make sure that all staff members are treated
equally in a fair manner. Progress has been made by
starting new programs and policies in hiring practices. Also
the City has implemented the policy of giving tuition
reimbursement to hourly staff as well as opening up
professional development courses to them.
VIII. Action Items
A. Suspension of Patron's Library Privileges
The Trustees unanimously passed a motion to suspend Shirley
Sitron's library privileges both at the Main Library and Easton Branch
Library for a time period of one year effective February 18, 2020.

B. Elimination of Fines for Burlingame Library Patrons
The Trustees unanimously passed a motion approving the request of
the City Librarian to eliminate all library fines for Burlingame Library
patrons effective at the beginning of the fiscal year, July 1st 2020.

C-19 Pandemic Update Addendum to Trustee Report
Serving the community:
On March 16th as we closed and locked the Library at 5pm none of us would have guessed we would still be in
Shelter in Place. I think it goes without saying that this has caught everyone, including myself and staff, by
surprise and we have been playing catching up. Fortunately, we were already well provisioned with plenty of
quality eResources to provide to our community. As well, Staff have implemented a community survey looking
for areas of assistance that we are able to provide. Here is a partial list of what staff are providing or working to
provide to Library patrons:
• Curated COVID-19 Closure eLibrary webpage including
o eBooks, eAudiobooks, eMagazines, Newspapers
o Streaming movies
o Activities
• Online Tutoring services for students (Tutor.com and Zoom Homework Center)
• Online storytimes
• Online classes
• Online book clubs
• Zoom Reference
• Social Media and #BURLINGAMETOGETHER
Staffing:
From March 16th until April 7th full-time benefited staff were paid Administrative leave to stay home and out of
the building. If you were asked to work from home during this period (Social Media, Storytimes, Payroll,
Accounting) you were also given PTO (Paid Time Off) hours as an equity bonus. Hourly staff were paid for the
shifts they were scheduled to work. As of April 8th all full-time staff are officially back at work either at home if
possible or in the building if not, or they are able to take leave if they want to do neither. The City is also paying
hourly staff for their scheduled shifts from April 8th to May 3rd in one severance lump -sum so that they are able
to collect unemployment insurance. For now we are effectively down to 22 benefited employees with our
custodian on "vacation" by his own choice.
Behind the Scenes Work:
Circulation Dept is working to mail out Holds left here before the March 16th closing. At this time they calling
patrons to ask whether they want materials mailed but are getting very few responses. Another project they are
working on is mailing letters to elderly patrons to "let them know we haven't forgotten about them" and ask
them to contact us (by phone?) for future information about Library resources.
Tech Services Dept is helping staff out with technical issues, laptops, VPNs (virtual personal network), working
on IT issues in the building, cleaning up leftover book orders and cataloging, and 3-D printing PPE face shields
for our Police, Fire, Public Works, and County agencies.
Children's dept is working to pivot on the possibilities of Summer Learning which starts in June, recording
storytimes, Homework Center, contests, supporting schools, and looking at what "programs" will mean in the
future.
Adult Services dept has created zoom reference times, is looking for ways of phone call reference to staff
through Google. And like Tech Services they are working on sewn masks for Library and City staff.
Also, most staff will be working with our Planning Dept and Economic Development rep to begin taking turns
calling businesses and offer information on City, County, State, Federal support.
Planning for Re -Opening:
There are a lot of variables of course but if we have a somewhat basic plan it will be easier to pivot when the
time comes.
OVERARCHING QUESTIONS to consider:
• Grocery stores as examples: What are businesses doing for safety?
• Restrictions on gathering size for indoor programs?
• Restrictions on gathering size for outdoor events?
• PPE requirements for staff?
• PPE requirements for library patrons?
• Requirements for cleaning/ sanitizing Library facilities? (Custodians/UBS)
• VARIOUS BUILDING SCENARIOS -- Main & Easton:
o Scenario #1. building not open to public but all staff are back to work
■ Preparing for scenario 2, 3, or 4
o Scenario #2. building not open but patrons can come into self -check area only -- limited hours
■ Holds and gondolas need to be maintained
• Staff positioned outside door monitoring patron numbers
■ Will we have runners to pull materials?
■ Will it be walk up window similar to Bevmo on Burlingame Ave
o Scenario #3.Quick Lending: building open but patrons must locate/check out materials and leave
asap -- limited hours
o Scenario #4. building open for "normal" use and times...

Appendix B: Freshness Metric
AP Freshness
How It's Calculated
• A "Shelf Days" measure is calculated
for every item owned
• Shelf Days = # of Copies Owned
multiplied by the days since last activity
(checked out, received, added to
system)
• Example: 4 copies of a title last
checked out 60 days ago would have a
Shelf Days value = 240
• Anything with a Shelf Days value less
than 730 (2 'copy years') is "Fresh",
anything over that is "Stale"
• A genre's overall "Freshness" is
calculated as the number of "Fresh"
titles as a % of total Titles
What It Means
The overall measure looks at how much of
your holdings are moving-- and how much
aren't. The portion that are 'Stale' ... aren't
moving
What You Can Do About It
The good news is that you can really impact
this number in a positive way by diving in to
the details. Two approaches:
• Weeding: Grab your'virtual' trowel
• Placement: Face -outs, Repositioning...

Appendix B: Relevance Metric
* Relevance
How It's Calculated
• We identify the titles selling in over
10% of the Indie bookstores across the
country in the last 6 months (nearly
500 Indies report to us on daily basis)
• The titles are grouped by "family" -- to
account for different editions / ISBNs of
the same title
• Your holdings are analyzed against this
list to determine what % of these titles /
families you own by genre
What It Means
The Indie bookstore market is probably a
good indicator of what titles your patrons
might be interested in as well-- and this
measure is pretty good at eliminating outliers
since it requires titles to be sold in multiple
stores.
What You Can Do About It
Review the individual titles in Edelweiss and
acquire the ones that you think would circulate
well for you.
Burlingame Public Library: All Branches Page 64

Appendix B: Hit Rate Metric
Q Hit Rate
How It's Calculated
• The titles analyzed here are those that
you own and that were published in the
last 3 to 15 months
• "Hit Rate" is defined as the number of
those titles that have been checked out
at least once
• The titles that haven't circulated are
affectionately labeled "DOA"
What It Means
"Hit Rate" evaluates how many of the new
titles you purchased were in demand and how
many weren't
What You Can Do About It
It's always a bit of a crapshoot, but the
Edelweiss catalog service and various
analytics offerings provide access and insight
into what's coming out and what professional
readers are excited about.

Appendix B: Turnover Metric
How It's Calculated
• Inventory turnover is a very common
retail measure used to look at the
overall efficiency of a collection
• The calculation is as follows: Total 6
month circulation in units divided by
the average collection size in units --
and then multiplied by 2 to annualize
the number
• Theoretically, inventory turns represent
the number of times per year the
average title circulated
Burlingame Public Library: All Branches
Turnover
What It Means
An overall measure of the how well your
collection is circulating
What You Can Do About It
Some approaches to improving inventory
turns:
• Weeding: Grab your'virtual' trowel
and move stuff that's not circulating
