Administrative & Staff Reports
August-September zoz6
DIRECTOR'S REPORT
School is back in session, and the library is busy with fall programming and planning for
the holiday season. Some significant internal staffing changes were made this month,
though we remain at full strength, a welcome change from last year' Work continues on
various building projects, including prep work for the finishing touches to the audiovisual
upgrades in the meeting rooms.

August and September saw a variety of programming, including a successful blood drive
and the returrof our popular local history walking tours. Additionally, our regular
offerings for Chess Club, Writer's Workshop, and YA Drop-in Gaming continue to be
populai. The ongoing Typewriter Trail exhibit continues to draw a lot of attention and
iegular browsing by patrons. In August, the donor of all ofthe typewriters returned to
Woodstock, and the city took him on a tour of the trail, beginning at the library.
The September First Friday focused on establishing boundaries, and finding ways to
redirect or shut down inappropriate questions and dialogues from patrons. Additionally,
staff participated in the annual "emergency preparedness" scavenger hunt- This involves
staff hnding all of the various fire alarm pulls, fire extinguishers, exits, and other
emergency equipment and locations around the building.

over the summer, some changes were planned in the organizational structure of the
library, and those were implemented in August. There were two big moves-- promoting
Bailey Rewoldt to the Head of Technical Services role, and promoting Carrie Zamorano to
the Assistant Director role. Both moves provide better oversight and staff coordination,
and both Bailey and Carrie are very much deserving of the promotions. Carrie's move also
helps ensure tliat either the director, or one ofthe tvuo assistant directors (Martha and
Carrie), will be available for the majority of the time the library is open.
The library has begun working with Thunder Hearing and Sound to install Bluetooth
functionality in the meeting and training rooms, which will allow hearing aids, and hearing
loops, to provide direct audio connections to our speakers. Prairie Roots and the Bayton
ouidoor spr"" u." nearly complete. The sun sails have been installed, and staff did a walkthrough with Bluestem and Sebert to identify the remaining issues that n_eed to be
addreised. Additionally, staff is working with Associated Electric to install lights and
cameras in the Bayon Outdoor Space. Staff and public works continue to explore options
for remodeling the youth area which used to house the juvenile DVD collection. This space
wiII be utilized as a calming area, as well as a privacy space for nursing mothers. Plans to

remodel the story time room into a staff office area are on hold for now, pending other
developments.

CIRCUI-AITION & BUILDING USE

August 2026
The trend of increasing in-person visits, continued in August, but for a change, check-outs
were also up from last year. There were zz,zo9 checkouts in August compared to 2r,386
last year, a 3.9% increase. In-person use ofthe building was 11,874 compared to ro,793 last
year, an increase of to%o.

FINANCIALS
Spending out of this year's budget is underway.

City Meetings/City News
The city's late August and early September City Council meeting were mostly routine,
though the August 18 meeting included an update on the Die Cast development. Progress is
being made, and the city is pleased with the changes that have been proposed.

At the August 18 meeting, there was a lot of public input on the proposed Flock camera
project. A group of residents submitted a petition to the council seeking the removal of all
Flock and AIPR cameras from Woodstock. There were 887 Woodstock residents who
signed the petition, and over a r,ooo more that are McHenry County residents.
Work on the Route 47 utility upgrades continues, with multiple stretches of the road being
impacted by utility work, both electrical and water/sewer. This work will continue for the
next few months, while the state preps for the other parts ofthe project.

YOUTH SERI/ICES
For the Youth Services department, August was a month oflaying down the groundwork for
future projects. Throughout August, the team developed plans to add Tonies to the collection
by focusing on shelf placement, checkout procedures, loan rules, and more. Tonies are a
popular item right now, a screen-free audio player for kids that features a variety of different
characters, including Pokemon, Ms. Rachel, Disney and Sesame street characters and more.
The team also began the process of emptying the old Children's A/V nook in preparation for
a sensory-friendly play space. In addition, we assisted with the recent library-wide shelving

project by taking down old shelving and relocating materials. Lastly, the departmental
shifting project in the Children's Area also continued to move forward with the Oversize
collection being relocated next to the Biographies. Whether it was the layout ofour space or
the collection itself, August was a month of planning and preparation for a myriad of
different projects around the department.

As mentioned above, the Youth Services department has committed to adding Tonies to our
collection. This process has involved collaborating with the Circulation and Technical
Services departments to develop a checkout process, determine a shelflocation, put together
labeling instructions, and establish loan rules. The next steps for the project will include
adding them into Sierra, labeling the items, and doing final checks to ensure everything
works smoothly. The team estimates that the Tonies will be ready by the end of September,
and is very grateful for all the assistance from Technical Services and Circulation.

Starting in late July into early August, the team participated in a library-wide shelving
project to reuse empty, unused shelving from the old Children's A/V nook in other areas of
ihe library. The Children's Area received some surplus shelving to address an odd gap at the
beginning of the Children's DVD range. This change offered a significant improvement in
the aesthetic appearance ofthe range.

In the Teen Area, the Graphic Novel and Fiction range received an extra shelving bay,

expanding both of those collections. The extra shelving space in Graphic Novels has made
room for ieveral new manga series that we previously did not have room for in that area.
This change has served to help buitd up the library's core collection of teen manga series
without needing to weed any of our graphic novels. This project addressed two crucial goals
for Youth Services: reuse the empty shelving from the old Children's A/V nook and expand
the available space for materials in the teen area'

In general, August is always intended to be a slow month for the Youth Services department
to offer a reprieve from the hustle and bustle of Summer Reading and to offertime to prepare
for Fall programs. Yet, even with this in mind, August quickly shaped into a busy month for
the depirtment. The team kickstarted the process of adding Tonies to the col-lection. The
shelving from the old Children's A/V nook was completely removed and the walls-repainted.
The Teen Area got a new couch. The team relocated the Oversize collection from behind the
Children's Desliand then used the extra shelf space to add six new games to our Kid's Menu.
Lastly, Tiara and I represented the library on Family Fun Day. We recorded over 4oo visitors
to oui table excited tb win roulette prizes, take crafts, and make buttons. In September, fall
programming will be in full swing while the team prepares for the Homeschool Mixer and
the start of session one of Storytime. Stay tuned for more!

CIRCUI-ATION SERYTCES
August offers the Circulation Team a chance to catch its bleath after the faster pace of
su*mer. While the calendar is a little lighter with fewer meetings, events, and programs,
the Circulation Team continues to be on the front line of customer service, welcoming and
assisting patrons each day.

With other members of management team and City colleagues, Carrie Zamorano and Katie
Bradley attended a lunch and learn session presented by NAMI (National Alliance on
Mental Health) on Mental Health in the workplace for Supervisors. There were many
practical
ideas for supporting themselves and staff and guidance regarding local _resources.
^Carrie
and Katie also met to plan goals for the rest of the year for themselves and the
circulation team.

Circulation staff continue to play vital roles with their committee work. Katie attended a
WILIUG Steering Committee meeting; Bella Struck represented the library at the City VIP
committee meeting which plans citywide staff events.

eReader Lending Policy

The library has preloaded eReaders available to loan.
An eReader may be checked out by patrons age 18 and over with a Woodstock Public Library
card in good standing and with no current fines or overdue ifems. The patron must present
current proof of address (i.e., a driver's license or current utility bill) and sign a new Lending
Policy each time an eReader is borrowed.
a

Only one eReader may be borrowed at a time by an individual patron.

An eReader circulates for 14 days and cannot be renewed. lf there is no waiting list for an
eReader upon its return, the returning patron may again check out the device after the staff has
conducted the full check-in process.
eReaders must be returned directly into the hands of a Woodstock Public Library staff member
at the Circulation Desk. Do not place the eReader in a book drop, or leave the eReader on
the Circulation Desk if a staff member is not present. eReaders may not be returned to
any other library. lf the eReader is returned in a book drop box, a $25 minimum fee will be
charged to the user for unnecessary risk to the device.
Overdue charges are $1 .00 per day (maximum fine-cost of replacing eReader) for the late
return of an eReader.

lf an eReader is not returned, or is returned damaged, the patron will be charged a
replacement fee for the eReader and its companion equipment. Current replacement fees are
indicated on the following page.

Patrons may NOT register the eReader online with a personal credit card to purchase
items. Only items loaded at the library, by library staff, may be added to the eReader.
Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a non-negotiable $50 fine to cover staff time
in communicating with the vendor and re-setting the device registration.
IMPORTANT: Patrons should not leave the reader in their car; the devices are highly sensitive
to cold and hot temperatures.
