Director’s Report submitted by: Lara Lorenzi March 2015 Library Board of Trustees Meeting Informational Updates:
• The library has installed the new book/av drop for our patrons. We are monitoring usage of all the book drops withthe expectation that empting the book drop on Sunday’s will no longer be necessary. PASD has secured the bookdrop so it cannot be moved.
• The library was closed on the following dates due to weather:o Monday Feb 2nd-closed at 5pmo Monday Feb 9th- closed at 5pmo Tuesday Feb 17th-closed all dayo Saturday Feb 20th- closed at 3:30pm
• The library was closed on Monday Feb. 16 in honor of President’s Day.Personnel Updates: None at this time. Facilities Update:
• PASD has been out to change light bulbs, replace a broken toilet and have completed other routine maintenancetasks.
• PASD has been preparing the sidewalks when we have had to deal with snow/ice during work hours. Our sidle walkshave been well taken care of this year. In the spring PASD will be out to power wash the walks.
Statistical updates: Door Count:
• Door count ytd:o From July 2013-Feb. 2014 total door count was: 98,405o From July 2014-Feb. 2015 total door count is: 89,272
This is a 9% decrease from 2013-2014.• Door Count Current month:
o Feb. 2014 door count:: 9,466o Feb. 2015 door count:: 9,534
This is a 1% increase from the previous year. We were closed quite a bit this month, had we beenopen our regular service hours I believe our door count numbers would have been higher.
Chester County Library System Updates: • Just a reminder: Starting March 2, 2015 patrons will be able to freeze their holds. This is done solely by the patron
with no staff interaction. A patron has to freeze the item before the hold is pulled. The patron has to also unfreeze thehold; staff members cannot do this for them. The default freeze is for 255 days. This is a great new addition if you areplanning on being out of the area for travel, etc.
