Hello. Just curious about health insurance benefits. Do you offer it? Do you offer it to all employees, only FT, only director? Do you offer a stipend? If so, how much? What do they do need to do to receive it? How often is the stipend paid out? Here is a general benefits question, does your director receive a different set of benefits than your other full time benefits? Thanks! Amy

Hi Amy, If you take a look at the Public Library data available at www.michigan.gov/librarystatistics<http://www.michigan.gov/librarystatistics> you can open the excel file titled 2021-2022 Michigan Public Library Statistics and see what benefits libraries reported last year in the Employee Benefits tab (last tab on the excel file) in Columns J-AV. I do not have information on if a stipend was offered for this though. I hope to have the new data from the Annual Report/State Aid Application libraries just filled out, available this spring.

Hello, As far as SCCLS goes, we do offer health insurance through Blue Cross Blue Shield for full time employees. This isn't connected to the library specifically but rather through the county benefits for FT. There's no stipend. I'm not sure if there's any difference between benefits and administration levels here. Thomas A.
