As there was not a quorum, no votes were taken, and only an informal meeting was held. Old business will have to be discussed at the next meeting, as both issues required a vote. First, the minutes of the July 3, '90 meeting had been mailed to all Board members. The other issue concerned whether or not we would like pictures (and a brief explanation of her life) of Mrs.Peavy to hang near the needlepoint pictures. We may consider this if the picture is framed, etc. It will be voted on at the next meeting. Next we discussed Peg's monthly report. The wide angle lens has been installed in the security camera. The shelving from R.J.Shepherd has been held -up on board a ship in Houston; ships have not been allowed to enter the harbor due to the oil spill. Native Tree Farms has worked on our trees, and is trying a systsem of constant dripping water to improve the trees growth. The summer reading and the teen volunteer programs are completed. Liz Taylor's class on hospitality stressed being informed about the City in general, and treating patrons as "guests". Finally, it was noted that fees collected in July were high, but that this is normal for the summer. There will be a regional meeting of the Texas conference on libraries at Southwestern University (in Georgetown) on October 20, with Parker McCollough as a guest speaker from 9:40 a.m. to 10:00. Also, by September 10 we must appoint a lay representative to CTLS. There are generally three meetings: two informational meetings & one voting meeting. Additional data is available from Nancy. Finally, Brenda will be attending the Summer Preview Session in Bastrop. GEORGETOWN PUBLIC LIBRARY 808 MARTIN LUTHER KING GEORGETOWN,TX 78626 PHONE 512/863-3168
