Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 9 : 00 - 6: 00 p .m .
Tuesday hours will remain 12 : 00 p .m. - 3 : 00 p .m. There was
discussion that the Board would like to also have late hours
on Thursday night as well . Rosanne Burgess stated that
with the limited staff right now, and the planned Storytime
hours every Thursday morning at 10 : 00 a .m . , it would spread
the staff too thin to stay open another late night . It is
hoped that Saturday hours will meet the needs of those not
able to come in during the week . Chairman Fultz stated that
he strongly wanted the hours to be permanent , so we would
show consistency. As soon as possible , the hours would be
added for Thursday evening , but for the present they will
remain as above .
CONSIDER APPOINTMENT OF NETLS REPRESENTATIVE AND ALTERNATE .
The NETLS representative was changed to Mary Jo Smith , as
Chairman Fultz could not attend during the daytime as was
first hoped . Ms . Smith will go with the Director to the
December 14th NETLS meeting in Richardson . The alternate
will be Carol Barry to replace Pat Zimmerman , who is no
longer on the Board .
Judy Lippe submitted her resignation from the Board , due to
family needs and her disappointment over John Pitstick

There being no other discusssion , a motion was made to
adjourn with all in favor .
