RECEIPTS FOR BABYSITTING CLASSES

We have 2 babysitting classes coming up that have fees of $20.

One is in Sept. and one in Nov.

 

There is a receipt book in the drawer in the northwest corner of the circ desk.  

 

I put an example page of what needs to be filled out and what to do with the receipts.

 

The receipt book has three colors (3 copies)

1. white for patron
2. yellow to be put in the folder by the cash register
3. pink stays in the book.

 

Youth Services will pick up the yellow copy of the receipts from the folder by cash register.

The money collected goes into the cash register as PROGRAM. (cash or check)

 

 

Responding to Patrons

There have been several patrons asking about the log cabin and train table. Please feel free to note that the table and house were exciting additions that were added to the library several years ago and will be replaced with fun and exciting new things in the newly remodeled space. We appreciate them using the library and they will see many neat changes coming forward. 

Patron input is always appreciated so you can always offer them to write a comment card. Things will be shifted as space constraints occur, so we appreciate their patience. J

Sunday Hours

The decision has been made to remain closed (during construction) and not resume Sunday hours. There were several immediate considerations. It is quite apparent that the front phase of construction will be more complicated than the current site-work. As Sundays are not typical days that residents would plan to use the library, we will remain closed. Regular library usage is dropping due to the confusion of the entry and drives that have to be changed to accommodate construction work, so given all that, the decision to remain closed is quite logical. We will post notice of neighboring library’s Sunday hours and that we plan to reopen Sundays next year in an expanded facility. I feel confident that our customers will understand this decision due to the ongoing construction upheaval. Staff will continue to work their summer schedule of hours. I wanted to alert staff to this change as soon as possible. Please see Sara or Sheree if you have any questions. Lastly, please remain positive to customers as we bring forward a bright and expanded new library space.

60 seconds with Sheree Aug 15

1. As we have construction work done there will be times that will require late openings or possibly some closings, as they work on electrical etc. We will not be able to be open to the public or staffed during certain times. They will give us as much notice as possible, and in turn, we will give staff as much notice as possible. You are able to use your personal or vacation time if you want to receive pay otherwise closed times will be without pay. We hope these times will be limited. 2. Soon they will begin the front phase of construction. All plantings are available to staff to remove AFTER HOURS not during any time the library is open. When construction begins plantings will be part of the demolition and are not able to be saved. When front construction begins there will be no opportunity for you to dig anything up due to safety issues. 3. Until further notice, staff may wear jeans with a nice top. 4. New nametags are here. You are required to wear one at all times when at work. If you have any questions, please see me or Sara. Thanks everyone! Stay positive for our patrons and each other. Sheree
