Please approve a budget amendment to appropriate funds to the following expenditure accounts: From 030.2248 To 4010 -8010 4010 -8260 4060 -8260 When appropriated the funds will be used as follows: Promotion of Libraries ft Readers Amount $ 12,000.00 $137,000.00 $ 1.000.00 $150,000.00 4010 -8010 Summer Reading Program for Youth $8.000 Summer Reading Program for Adults $ 700 $12,000 The Library conducts four summer reading programs for preschoolers, elementary school age kids, teens and adults. Over 2,000 customers of all ages participate in these programs. Funds are used to provide entertaining programs for youth and incentive prizes for all ages to motivate them to continue reading. In cooperation with the local schools, the Library targets the above groups of students for class visits to the Library. Since first grade is a critical time for young children learning to read, paperback books are given to all kids visiting the Library. Providing funding for bus transportation from the schools to the Library makes these visits possible. Materials Collection 4010 -8260 $137,000 Children's Book Collection $36.000 These funds are used to enhance a very heavily used part of the Library collection. Preschoolers through teens depend upon the Library for books and videos for their recreational and educational needs. Video /DVD Collection at all 4 Libraries $15.000 There is a one -day (rental) collection at each library site that will include high interest, new titles. The seven -day collection at the Central Library will consist of a mixture of musicals, classic feature films, and non - fiction titles. The seven -day collection will be available for inter - branch loans. Audio Books $42.000 Audio books continue to be in high demand. Both fiction and non - fiction, abridged and unabridged titles are purchased for all four sites. Since the books on compact disc collection has become more popular, the budget increase will allow not only for the purchase of more titles in this format but also will enhance the entire audio book collection. Popular, high interest titles for all libraries $22.000 These are current titles that are in high demand by the Library's customers. The books are purchased for all four sites to provide access to popular titles at the branch level. This gift allows the Library to enhance the current collection of the books. Book Bags $ 5,000 The Library will supplement the current supply of book bags. These bags are available to the customers as they enter the Central Library, so they may be used while selecting materials throughout the building, and at checkout at all four sites. Literacy Services 4060 -8260 $1,000 Many of the items in the Literacy collection become outdated and consequently unused. Funds are used to purchase books, books on tape, learning materials other than books, and testing materials for Literacy students. As the number of Literacy students increases, the entire collection needs to be updated and increased.
