Director FY26 Budget Work Session A City Council Budget Work Session was held on January 13t". The session included an introduction and budget landscape overview from City Manager Geoff Fruin (video available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlbReFVNOcU) and brief budget presentations from department heads. I appreciated the opportunity to share a summary of the library's structure and operations, provide service highlights from FY24, identify upcoming challenges and opportunities, and discuss our budget requests for FY26. Council members asked a few questions about the library, including our response to social service needs and current support from the Friends Foundation. HVAC Unit Replacement On January 6, one of the library's rooftop HVAC units was replaced. A compressor in the 22-year-old unit failed in August, and after considering all repair and replacement options, we elected to replace the unit (the new equipment uses new "new" cooling agent 134A). Installation required a crane (pictures) and S. Linn Street was temporarily closed to accommodate the work (full street access was available by the time the library opened). A wireless antenna was installed as part of the unit's communication system, and as remaining units are replaced (over the next several years), they will be added to the new system. Brad Gehrke and his team did an exceptional job managing this project. Leadership Team Retreat The leadership team met at the Iowa City Airport for a two-day retreat on January 91h and 101h. Our agenda included both action -based items (like prioritizing aspects of the FY26 CIP) and strategic discussion (like library values and principles), and both days were full of productive conversation and planning. This is the second year the leadership team has met offsite for a retreat and it is so impactful to have time to work on large-scale projects and to connect outside of our regular work environment. I am grateful to the Coordinators for the energy they brought to the retreat and thankful to all library staff for keeping things running while we were away; I truly value that our organizational culture supports this kind of intentional, collaborative work. Initial Meeting with Parks and Recreation About Service Delivery On January 14th, Brad Gehrke, Jason Paulios, and I met with Parks and Recreation leadership to talk about our services for and with unhoused patrons. This initial meeting covered a comparison of documented needs, current services, and ways related issues are documented, and it was really interesting to learn more about how our services currently align. We also discussed ways that our departments could collaborate in the future. We plan to bring the Senior Center and Transit into the conversation and will be scheduling a larger discussion soon; I look forward to identifying ways we can work together and exploring options for coordinating policies related to service delivery and behavior management. Updates to "Staff Contacts" Webpage We recently made some updates to the "Staff Contacts" page on our website. Previously, this page included pictures of eight of the members of the leadership team from various stages of our careers and in an assortment of environments, and a summary of our educational and professional backgrounds. We updated the pictures with current images, taken in the library; added the ninth member of the leadership team; and removed the biographical information. The update makes our contact information easier to find and is reflective of current trends in public library websites. The webpage can be viewed at Calendar.

May wrote, "We must learn to invite the winter in. We may never choose to winter, but we can choose how." Following May's guidance, they designed various opportunities for engagement, connection, and even celebration during these long, cold nights. Events include passive programming like cozy reading with cocoa on Monday mornings, a book discussion centered around May's Wintering, as well as hands-on creative activities such as fiber arts hangouts, candle making, and winter -inspired writing prompts. The advertising flyer has been well -received, and registration slots are filling up quickly! Event Feedback Stacey received the following comments after promoting her second Book Club Matchmaking event from early January: "I was so pleased with the earlier event! I ended up in two separate book clubs, both of which have met consistently, and I'm very happy. Thank you for planning and hosting - I'm very grateful to ICPL and the surrounding community." "I attended the first book club event and am in a book club that has met once monthly since! It's been great to meet up and talk about the book and also get to know people in IC (I moved here pretty recently). Just wanted to say thanks for hosting the first event and I hope the second one goes well!" "I've been meaning to email you and thank you for organizing the first event. I joined two different book clubs from the event and they have each met at least twice so far! One of my groups even did a puzzle exchange for the holidays. It was so nice to connect with other people looking for similar things and I really appreciate you setting it all up! I'm also so glad to hear you're doing another session because I've had friends wishing that they attended the first one, haha!" This was a new program offering and it was gratifying to hear that the goals of the program were met! Participants of December 2024 "Make a 2025 Calendar in Can va" Community & Access Services Department Report Prepared for the January 23, 2025 Meeting of the Library Board of Trustees Sam Helmick, Community & Access Services Coordinator ICPL Inservice Day On December 13, our staff participated in a dynamic and enriching Inservice day designed to strengthen our understanding of trauma -sensitive services, ethics, and the evolving role of technology in libraries. The day began with a session by Harmony Linden on "Trauma -Sensitive Services: Enhancing Safety for Library Patrons and Staff," where participants explored how to create supportive environments for both patrons and staff. This was followed by a hands-on LEGO Serious Play workshop with Sam Helmick, designed to foster collaboration and reflection. Jennie Garner, Director of North Liberty Community Library, then led a session on "Building Trust through Candor and Crucial Conversations," drawing from the book Speed of Trust. The afternoon session, "The Impact of Al: Ethics & Considerations for Libraries," led by Dr. Brandy McNeil, explored the ethical challenges and opportunities surrounding the use of Al, particularly tools like ChatGPT, in libraries. Dr. McNeil's presentation provided an overview of the evolving landscape of technology and its implications for library services. I would like to extend my gratitude to Katie Roche for her leadership as Chair, the Inservice Committee for their hard work in organizing this event, and the Board of Trustees for their ongoing support of staff learning and professional development opportunities. The knowledge gained at this year's event will undoubtedly enhance the services we provide and further our mission of supporting our community. Partnerships/Staff Development (TruArt Tour) As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance promotional materials for library programming and outreach, the marketing and PR staff recently toured a local business specializing in custom printing. The tour provided valuable insights into the process of creating high -quality, specialized materials that effectively capture the attention of our community. During the visit, staff learned about various printing techniques, paper options, and design considerations, which will help elevate the library's promotional materials for events, programs, and initiatives. This hands-on experience not only strengthened our understanding of the production process but also fostered a deeper collaboration with local vendors, ensuring that future library outreach efforts are both visually appealing and impactful. Outreach CommUnity outreach is going very well. Every time Hiedi Kuchta visits, she takes a selection of donated books for people to browse and take, many giveaways to support our array of services for all ages, and passive crafts/goodies (coloring sheets to take, pipe cleaner bracelets, temporary tattoos, koozies, pens, etc). It is also an opportunity for folks to sign up for library cards and seek help with library apps or ask general library questions. ' `AL -,r (Jan -June) Visitors: 228 Library Cards Not Tracked TY24 Visitors: 403 New Library Cards: 30 TY25 (so far) Visitors: 282 New Library Cards: 18 Displays The themes of the winter displays in the library reflect a variety of interests that resonate with current community conversations and needs. For instance, the Cozy Mysteries display taps into the growing desire for comfort and nostalgia, especially during the winter season. Cozy mysteries offer a warm, escape -from -reality reading experience that aligns well with the Winter Wellness theme, which highlights mindfulness and personal well-being. Similarly, the Foodie Fiction display speaks to the community's passion for food culture, from chefs to restaurants, creating an inviting space for culinary enthusiasts and fiction lovers alike. On the other hand, the Nordic Noir display introduces a more intense genre, reflecting the growing global interest in international crime fiction and Nordic culture. Meanwhile, the National Book Award: Winners & Finalists shelf offers a platform for discussions on contemporary literature, celebrating outstanding authors and fostering conversations about the importance of diverse storytelling. Recently, the library automated the process by which to request a public display space. The public can now apply for community display space on the Library website. Before, this process included a PDF file that staff would email to individuals who had expressed interest. This update improves knowledge and access to this service and created multiple efficiencies for staff. ICPL Bookmobile The ICPL Bookmobile has two new stops for its Winter/Spring 2025 schedule, expanding reach to the Lone Tree Health Care Center and Featherstone at Hickory Hill. These additions are part of the library's ongoing efforts to bring services directly to more members of the community, ensuring access to books, resources, and technology for all. We will carefully track circulation, and door counts at these new stops in addition to the staff -side, online tool for patron feedback. This system helps the team tailor collections to the specific interests and needs of patrons by identifying popular materials and gathering heartwarming messages. For example, one patron at Waterfront HyVee expressed, "Another example of Iowa City's finest, I'll spread the word!" Another at Community and Family Resources shared, "We really appreciate you guys," while a grateful visitor at recent Farmers Market exclaimed, "Thank you for this service!

Early requests are strongly encouraged to allow sufficient time to meet your access needs. Review: FY25 Holiday Calendar. Rocklin noted the request to close early on February 20, 2025. Carman said this would be an opportunity for training with other corridor library staff. The training begins with a keynote presentation in the morning and breakout sessions in the afternoon for staff collaboration that do similar work. Carman said the Iowa Library Association (ILA) conference is the only time these groups regularly get together. Carman said there is cross -over in regional library work, and it would be nice to get the different groups together. All participating libraries will contribute financially to the event and Cedar Rapids Public Library will provide the facility. Carman said staff who attend the training will be offsite all day and asked to close the library early at 6 pm so public service point shifts can be consolidated. Rocklin asked how many staff members would attend. Carman said 20-23. Carman noted ICPL is the only library in the corridor not closing for the day; Carman felt keeping some service in the region available was important. Carman polled staff for their interest in attending the optional training and there were a number who preferred to work at ICPL. Stevenson thought this was great and would love to have a similar opportunity in his own profession. Carman said depending on how it goes he may ask again next year. Raeburn asked if other libraries are closed for President's Day and noted ICPL does not. Mangano said it was an AFSCME change. The library used to have holiday hours on President's Day and when Juneteenth was adopted, they opted to not have them. Boothroy said regional collaboration is a great idea and she liked the solution to keep the library open for part of the day. Boothroy shared she supported it. Stevenson made a motion to approve the FY25 Holiday Calendar. Shultz seconded. Motion passed 6/0. Staff Reports. Director's Report. Carman shared InService Day was a positive and successful event. Carman thanked the trustees who attended and noted staff did a great job staying engaged. Carman said it is a meaningful opportunity to learn together. Carman noted his report highlighted post -holiday tech help and mentioned that the library does tech support all the time, and library staff are tremendously patient and knowledgeable in the Digital Media Lab, and all service points. Carman noted the Public Libraries of Johnson County Legislator Reception went well. The legislators who came are supporters of libraries and were curious to learn more. Carman said it is always a good experience to share library work being done and is good practice in engaging with legislators. Carman shared next year it will be hosted by the Iowa City Public Library. Boothroy asked if legislators identified any issues they anticipate coming up in regards to library services or libraries. Carman shared this was discussed and there was assumption that some of the failed legislation from the last session will be brought back. Carman said that tax reform is on everyone's mind and the impact it will have on municipal budgets, and then within that to libraries. Carman said the intersection of those dollars going down and further legislation against library service will create a very different environment for library services in Iowa. Departmental Reports: Children's Services. Pilkington thanked Johnk for a tote of trains and tracks, and shared it was a big hit. Collection Services. Mangano shared the Adventure Pass program is suspended and the State Library is searching for an alternative reservation system. Rocklin asked if it is a selection question.
