TO:  MAYOR WYTHE AND CITY COUNCIL
THROUGH: RENEE KRAUSE, CMC, DEPUTY CITY CLERK
FROM:  LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD
DATE:  MAY 22, 2013
SUBJECT: RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE THE FACILITY USE POLICY
At the regular meeting May 7, 2013 the Library Advisory Board discussed the proposed Facility Use Policy.
Below is the excerpt from the minutes of that meeting with the recommendation to approve the policy.
A.  Review and Approve Final Draft of Facility Use Policy

The Board spoke favorably about the final draft.  Library Director Dixon reported the City Attorney commented they are within the rights to prohibit patrons to view pornographic material on their equipment, so she is okay with that clause. They briefly discussed the issue and Mrs. Dixon said they will try to continue to handle it with good public relations and remind equipment users to be thoughtful about what is being viewed.
GROESBECK/KLOUDA MOVE TO APPROVE THE FACILITY USE POLICY AS PRESENTED.
There was no discussion.
VOTE: NON OBJECTION: UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
Motion carried.
There was brief discussion about definitions, point was raised that they had discussed it previously and felt that keeping the Library Director as the final authority was most appropriate.
