Marty reminded us that the teleconference is limiting public access to the Trustee Meetings. All agreed to provide the teleconference number on our webpages so the public can participate.
Marty recommended that Michael clean the carpet during the closure. Marty will contact Michael and will pick up the shampooer. Cathryn requested that Michael dust the tops of the books and the shelves behind the books. She also asked if he could wipe down the covers of the picture books with Windex.
