Library Director Adamowski stated other revenue the Library receives from state grants, fines, and book sales conducted by volunteers. Board Member Sanguinetti stated the increased funding to the Library essentially replaced a reduction in funds they experienced in 2009/10.

Board Member Sanguinetti asked that the Council provide additional funding in the future to enable the Library to increase wages. He indicated the sustainability of the Friends of the Library is of concern. Library Director Adamowski reported that the interior remodel is complete and was funded at 75% with donated funds.
