Five Year Plans
by Ms. TJ Smith 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

Hello all- We just made it through our first millage renewal and are in the process of creating our first five year plan. If you are willing or able, could you send a copy of your library's plan to me off list? We're a Class II library, but I'm willing to read through plans from libraries of all sizes. One of the primary goals we'll be covering is expanding our space, so any that include similar topics would be of the greatest help. Thanks all!

PPT reimbursements
by Melissa Malcolm 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

Hi all-- Though I have been assured by Treasury that the reimbursement will be coming and I don't need to do anything to get it, I am really nervous about adding the figure to millage income in this FY2017 budget. Is any of you feeling the same, and adding the figure anyway? Or are you not putting it in and will be overjoyed when it comes? I hope I'm not the only not-so-trusting director out there. melissa -- Melissa A.

Volunteer Management Software - good and bad - and volunteer manuals
by Kay Schwartz 13 Sep '16

13 Sep '16

Hi, all, If you use volunteer signup and/or management software that you recommend or recommend avoiding, will you share that information with us? We are just beginning a formal volunteer tracking program. If anyone has a volunteer manual and/or volunteer job descriptions to share, much appreciated! (I've seen the compilation from Sharon at Allegan County Library last fall in the Michlib archives, but I get the Michlib digest and don't get attachments, so if anyone can respond directly to me with attachments, great.)
