The Main Library Children’s department renovation has begun, and should be completed in October. In the meantime, there is a small children’s collection in the Special Collections Center. String City is in the midst of a run at the Country Music Hall of Fame, and has been very wellattended. There is a new ConnectHome initiative led by the White House, ALA, HUD, and Google to provide internet access to public housing. We will most likely be involved, but this has not been confirmed yet. This would complement our other digital inclusion initiatives. Overdrive is about to release one-click access and simultaneous users for ebooks. These changes would increase access and be much less cumbersome for patrons. The Board retreat is Friday, July 31 at noon. President Jimmy Carter will do a book signing at the library on Thursday, July 23.
VI. Staff Reports a. Edgehill Branch Report—Larry Price and Rebecca Subhawong Mr. Price introduced Ms. Subhawong, who has been the branch manager for three years. The branch was renovated early in 2014, and currently has four FTEs. There is a community garden in an adjacent park, and a new police precinct a few doors down. With its location near the Gulch, 12 South, Belmont, and Vanderbilt, Edgehill has a lot of “invisible” patrons, people who just stop in to pick up their holds. Circulation has increased dramatically (over 40%) during the past fiscal year. Ms. Subhawong explained that she conducted a patron survey in April, from which she learned that over half of Edgehill patrons come to the library to use the computers. The location has a lot of regular, daily patrons who walk to the branch, as well as heavy children’s programming in the meeting room (to accommodate a higher volume level). The branch also participates in the Summer Food Service Program, which means that staff serve daily snacks in the meeting room in partnership with Second Harvest during summer vacation. b. New Website—Tricia Bengel Tricia explained that the new library website is about to be launched. The new site has been designed from the patron’s point of view, based on extensive user testing and user surveys. It will work as easily on a phone as on a computer, which is important because over half of all searches are done on phones. The new site will also have Arabic and Spanish versions. 95% of the use of the website is people searching the catalog, and the new catalog is being unveiled this week. Its most exciting new feature is that all formats are grouped into one record, so patrons can check out e-versions instantly (they don’t have to go through Overdrive, Hoopla, etc.). We will be one of only two systems in the country with this capability. c. Limitless Libraries Update—Allison Barney, Tricia Bengel Ms. Barney distributed information about the prior and upcoming school years.
2|Page
Limitless Libraries currently partners with all traditional MNPS schools, providing school delivery of NPL materials as well as assistance developing school library collections. During the 2014-2015 school year: Limitless Libraries checked out 138,000 items to students and teachers. Approximately 24,000 students were signed up to use Limitless Libraries. All 8,000 MNPS educators automatically received educator accounts. Limitless Libraries purchased $1 million worth of books, A/V materials, and electronic resources for MNPS libraries while utilizing NPL’s volume purchasing discounts. Limitless Libraries promoted NPL programs in schools, including Teen Read Week and Food for Fines. Limitless Libraries and NPL worked with MNPS to renovate and create state-of-the-art school libraries at McGavock High School and Overton High School. Upcoming in the 2015-2016 school year: Limitless Libraries will add school delivery for 3rd and 4th grade students at MNPS traditional elementary schools. Limitless Libraries will transition to an “opt-out” program, meaning students will automatically have permission to use the program. We anticipate that up to 50,000 library card holders will be added through Limitless Libraries this year. Students and teachers will have access to a shared catalog that includes materials both in their school library and at NPL. Limitless Libraries and NPL received $1,000,000 in the Metro budget to work with MNPS to renovate and create state-of-the-art libraries at two middle schools. Ms. Barney then gave a quick summary of this year’s accomplishments: Limitless Libraries circulated 138,000 items, registered 24,000 students, purchased $1 million’s worth of materials for MNPS collections, promoted NPL programs such as Teen Read Week and Food for Fines to schools, and oversaw the McGavock and Overton library renovations. This year will bring two big developments: school delivery is being expanded to 3rd and 4th grade, and Limitless Libraries will become an opt-out program rather than an opt-in program (meaning that anyone in grades 3-12 can automatically use Limitless Libraries—no parental permission required). This will result in up to 50,000 new cardholders. In addition, the shared catalog between MNPS and NPL is launching July 27, two middle school libraries are being selected for renovation, and a new research study on Limitless Libraries’ impact is being commissioned. Future plans include fully consolidating all purchasing (currently, schools still do some of their own purchasing) and deciding whether to expand to even lower grades. 3|Page
VII. New Business a. Patron Record Retention—Jena Schmid, Susan Drye Ms. Drye explained that some Metro records must be kept forever, but there is a limited amount of climate-controlled storage available. Therefore, we need to determine how to dispose of non-permanent files to create more room for permanent collections. For example, Ms. Schmid reported that we currently have five hundred boxes of old library card applications. To allow us to begin discarding these files, we would like to start expiring library cards every ten years. We could then destroy old library card applications as we acquire new signatures (and going forward, these signatures could be stored digitally). We will begin working this new expiration date plan into library policies and procedures. VIII. Adjournment The meeting adjourned at 1:20 p.m.

IX. Call to Order / Roll Call Keith Simmons called the meeting to order at 10:42 p.m. X.
Metro Ordinance required to be announced at all Board Meetings – Board Chair, Keith Simmons “Pursuant to the provisions of § 2.68.030 of the Metropolitan Code of Laws, please take notice that decisions of the Nashville Public Library Board may be appealed to the Chancery Court of Davidson County for review under a common law writ of certiorari. Any appeal must be filed within sixty days after entry of a final decision by the Board.

XI. Introduce Visitors Libby Cain from Metro Human Resources introduced herself. Andrea Fanta introduced Emily Waltenbaugh as the library’s new Public Information Officer. XII. Approval of Minutes: July 21, 2015 The July minutes could not be approved due to lack of a quorum. XIII. Library Director Report—Kent Oliver, Library Director American Libraries’ Library Design Showcase featured both the Bellevue and Southeast branches. Mr. Oliver distributed ULC Top Innovator brochures. NPL won an award this year for sustainability. 5|Page
NPL also won an award from the Convention and Visitors Bureau for marketing the Nashville brand. There will be a press conference today at 1:30 in the Commons about digital inclusion. New Mayor Megan Barry, the Community Foundation, Dell, Comcast, Google, and Vanderbilt will be participating. Regular voting at library locations went well. Banned Books Week will kick off here at the Main Library with a Freedom Sings concert on September 26. This is a First Amendment Center program featuring a high-profile band playing censored and challenged songs. When reviewing statistics, Mr. Oliver asked the Board to keep in mind that both Bordeaux and the Main Library Children’s department were closed for most of the summer.
XIV. Staff Reports a. Summer Challenge Report—Lindsey Patrick Ms. Patrick distributed a 2015 Summer Challenge Summary. She reported that First Tennessee Bank gave a large grant this year, and were involved with several outreach events as volunteers. Registration was up by 6%, even though Bordeaux and Main Children’s were closed. Fewer children registered this year, but more completed the program, which is a better measure of success. Adult registration and completion increased dramatically, presumably due to the Family Tech Pack prize and fine forgiveness. Over 50,000 people attended programs. Two “programs in a box” were created that were housed at Main and sent out to branches upon request; we anticipate adding more of these programs each summer. Outreach took place at nine sites (primarily feeding sites) in communities that have limited access to libraries. Outreach visits also included access to a travelling collection and a visit from the Puppet Truck, and had over 3,800 in attendance. Renovation Update: The new space for 0-13-year-olds will focus on learning, play, and providing a safe space. It will also be unique to Nashville. Ms. Patrick presented plans for a bookdrop shaped like the Main Library, interactive elements in the picture book area that highlight local architecture, a puppet stage modeled on the Ryman, and a reading fort resembling downtown Nashville. There will also be a new “tween” area that will be a mini makerspace, with a 3D printer, sewing machine, robotics kits, and separate computers. The grand opening of the new space is scheduled for December 1.
2015 Summer Challenge Summary Dates of Summer Challenge: May 1 – August 15 Dates of summer programming: June 1 - July 31 Highlights:
City earned 1.3 million points, surpassing the 1 million point goal. Travelling Outreach collections delivered books to more than 3,800 children. Limitless Libraries Summer Edition opened three MNPS libraries during the summer for eight weeks* and presented weekly programs to 275 children. “Inreach” pilot provided additional staff support and supplies funds to the Pruitt branch to help present programming to 190 children over the summer. 6|Page
Challenge heroes featured local celebrities, news anchors, artists, musicians, doctors, authors and government officials visiting libraries in support of summer reading and programming. Library staff enjoyed participating in stunts, dress-up days and wearing their Summer Challenge tshirts to raise awareness of the program. The piloted box program created four traveling kits for children and teens with a budget of $3000. These kits (one costume kit, one mask making kit, two Little Bits circuitry kits) were used to present more than 30 programs and are still in use. Average cost per program: $100 (this will decrease as the kits are still in use).
*Cole Elementary Summer Edition site was closed after four weeks due to low attendance. **Bordeaux, Main Children’s Department, and Wishing Chair Productions were closed during the summer which accounts for approximately 114 programs and 10,700 attendees.
Group Challenge NPL staff made contact with 118 different organizations including day cares and summer camps, and more than 4,400 children participated in the Summer Challenge in groups. Outreach “Travelling Collections” Lindsay Jensen led a targeted outreach effort from June 1 -July 31 to nine partner organizations. Travelling collections were non-barcoded collections of books purchased with Friends and Foundation funds that were taken to the sites with the expectation that the children return the books the next week.

Travelling Collection Success Stories: This was our first year visiting the Women’s Campus of the Nashville Rescue Mission. We saw an average of 43 kids a week, ages 4-18. According to the NRM staff, families staying at the Mission have no permanent address, are frequently experiencing hunger, and have few personal possessions. The kids welcomed the weekly library visit, and often requested specific titles that Lindsay was able to accommodate. On the last visit of the summer, Book ‘Em donated 86 books of varying reading levels so every child received a book they could keep. The remaining books will remain in the children’s playroom at the Mission. The travelling collection visited three schools this summer. Both McMurray Middle School and Haywood Elementary hosted the Refugee and Immigrant Students Empowered (RISE) group, and the MNPS Office of English Learners Camp in June, and J.E. Moss Elementary hosted the MNPS EL Camp. Because one of the main objectives of these camps is to increase English literacy in foreign-born students, the camp directors were incredibly grateful for the books offered by the travelling collections. Going forward, we’re hoping to connect Limitless Libraries: Summer Edition (see below) with the schools hosting the EL camps.
Positive Feedback “OMG! I REALLY LOVE THIS ITS IS SO FUN TO LEARN YAYYYYYY” (11-year-old) “My daughter is much more motivated to read this summer due to the awesome opportunities to win neat prizes! Thank you NPL!” (Mother of an 8-year-old) “This program is so cool. During summer I don't read but this summer I have been reading a lot. I have read a least 50 pages every day and the prize is something to look forward to reading I used to not be a big reader and I really did not like it. But now I really look forward to reading and I love to do it this year I have read more than I had ever read.” (12-year-old) 8|Page
“I really love this program it has been helping me read every night. I used to not like reading but this program helped me to read a lot and it made me love reading. It’s seriously the best and it’s beneficial for tracking everything I do. It has influenced me in great way. Thank you for creating this :).” (13-year-old) “We just signed up as a family today for the Summer Challenge 2015. This is a great way to work as a family to reach a family goal. Our goal is 500 points as a family! What's your goal?” (Family of 4) “Once again, I signed my family up for this year's NPL Summer Reading Challenge! I love this program! It helps my 2 elementary school children retain and hopefully exceed the reading level they were on at the end of the school year. It also encourages us to give back as a family. Furthermore, it helps my children to remain inquisitive about nature/science/their environment by encouraging them to ask questions, and then grab a book for answers.” (Family of 4) “[We received the] summer reading program prize today from the Bellevue library staff. We are excited for the opportunity to go to Dollywood, and more excited for the continuing opportunity to participate in the great things offered through the Nashville Public Library. We are thankful for all the library staff and support.” (Mother of the Children’s Grand Prize Drawing Winner) “First the first time, I witnessed [my son] pretending to read. After reading Llama Llama Red Pajama to him last night before bed, he took it from me and went to the kitchen. I peeked around the corner and he was babbling, and looking up and laughing/pointing as if addressing his audience, then he would turn a page (which, I’d like to point out, takes a significant amount of fine motor skills to turn a single page). Even though he was facing a shelf in our kitchen, I am pretty confident he was pretending to read to someone/friend(s)…Last night, he was intentional and kept it up for about 2 minutes. So I logged it for one point today as reading to a friend!!! As you can tell, I’m really excited. He’s one step closer to actually reading. Best point we’ve logged thus far.” (Mother of a 2-year-old) “I was injured in a car wreck and can’t drive. My grandson and I came here, but also rode the bus to Bellevue for programs there, and we went to Green Hills for that science program – it was great! I told him we either had to do things that were free or cheap this summer, so he’d better get busy on the Summer [Challenge] program. And that really helped get him reading! One day we were rained out, so we went to the Adventure Science Center with his free pass he earned. We rode the bus everywhere – I told him he was getting acclimated to riding the bus. He had a great summer!” (Grandmother of an 8-year-old) b. Special Collection Grant—Jena Schmid / Andrea Blackman Ms. Blackman distributed materials about Estamos Aqui: 500 Years of Latino-American History. The Special Collections department received this major grant to create public programming based on a 2013 PBS series (http://www.pbs.org/latino-americans/en/). NPL is one of 203 grant recipients nationwide, and the only one in Tennessee. The library will be working as the lead organization along with 20 city partners including Vanderbilt, Lipscomb, CRIT, Conexion, and TIRRC. Estamos Aqui (We Are Here) will consist of ten months of programming focused on contemporary and historical Latino-American issues. Programs will include a Latino artist exhibit at the Main Library, film screenings, student workshops, community conversations, oral histories, professional development for teachers, and much more. Ms. Blackman has also been asked to present some programming in Memphis and Knoxville.

Brief Area Updates – October 20, 2015 Nashville Public Library Administrative Services Report Safety/Security: The two online Safety training classes for all library employees are near completion. o GHS and right to know law o Bloodborne Pathogens The Hepatitis B vaccination was offered and scheduled through the Metro Health Department for library employees that were at a higher risk of coming into contact with bloodborne contaminates. Emergency portable eye wash stations were installed at Donelson, Hermitage, North, Edgehill and Thompson Lane, mainly for the custodians to use if they get chemicals in their eyes. Additional stations will be added to locations where the chemical storage area is not close to a permanent water source or easy access. “No Firearms or Weapons” window decals arrived and have been placed on the primary entrances at all of our locations. Delivery: For the month of September 2015, delivery moved a total of 13,530 bins with a total item count of 399,810. The average for the month of September 2015 was 19,039 items per day.
Branch Services Report Branch Library Renovations Bordeaux Branch Library will open to the public the week of October 19. Staff returned to the branch the week of October 5 to shelve the collection and to prepare the branch for the grand opening. Patrons can expect a color palette that is unique to this branch and a circular theme throughout the design. Some exciting new features are the central service desk, a brand new vending café area, flexible conference rooms for public use, Studio NPL which includes a teen maker space, and a Laptops Anytime machine. The Laptops Anytime will allow patrons to check out laptops for an hour at a time for use within the library. Edmondson Pike Branch Library closed for renovations beginning October 1. Design meetings are currently being held with the architects, construction company, interior designer, and key stakeholders at NPL. We expect the project to be complete within five to six months. Branch Staffing John (JD) Lovelace, the new Branch Manager at Goodlettsville Branch Library, began training the week of September 28. We are scheduling interviews for the approved vacancies at the branches.

Friday Openings The Bellevue, Madison, and Southeast Branches are now open on Fridays. Patrons now have a choice of four locations if they would like to visit the library on Friday. Staff at these locations have seen an increase in traffic as the word has gotten out about the new hours. On Friday, January 8, 2016, the Bordeaux, Green Hills, and Hermitage Branches will be open on Fridays from 10 am to 6 pm. Edmondson Pike Branch Library will also have Friday hours once the renovations are complete.
Main Report Children’s Library Renovations Work continues on the Children’s area. Walls are colorfully painted with all colors of the rainbow. Flooring and shelving are being installed. We will reopen early December with much fanfare: a parade throughout the library, ribbon-cutting, a puppet show, and many hands-on activities to encourage the children to explore the new spaces. Main Programming NPL celebrated Banned Books Week with a Freedom Sings concert that featured music that has been banned, censored or sounded a call for social change. NPL librarian and TLA co-chair of the Intellectual Freedom Committee Bryan Jones also wrote an intellectual freedom column this month for Tennessee Libraries. An NPL Seed Exchange program presented by Sandor Katz brought in more than 125 people to learn about the Art of Fermentation. The Teen Center staff is providing a series of programming to assist teens looking for employment. This month staff collected clothing donations and provided a Winning Wardrobe program about interview attire. Teens participated in a fashion show and shopped in our boutique while learning about proper interview attire. October 9-11 NPL will be the location of many lectures for the Southern Festival of Books. We will also host a Friends of the Library book sale in the library lobby throughout the weekend. Collaboration & Outreach Adrienne Strock was invited to serve on YALSA’s Community Connections Taskforce, which is something YALSA members usually have to apply to do. Her membership on this team will end in 2017. She continues to review for School Library Journal. Equal Access staff participated in providing the Whole Community Disaster Preparedness workshop to Deaf & Hard of Hearing (D/HH) consumers and first responders at the Lentz Health Center on September 26th. The
20 | P a g e
program was offered by the Nashville Office of Emergency Management and EARS (Emergency Awareness & Readiness Services for D/HH). A gentleman from the Free Library of Philadelphia dropped into the Teen Center and said, “I visit lots of libraries and usually think we’re doing it right, but after visiting this teen center, I see that we have work to do.” And then his mind was even further blown when he toured the NPL Teen Studio. Library Love A student working on her Masters of Library Science recently was sent on a Dewey scavenger hunt of the downtown library. Her beloved had hidden love notes to her in selected titles of books throughout our collections. At the end of the scavenger hunt, he was waiting on bended-knee with a proposal. She said yes.
Communications The library’s communications team is happy to report a 2 percent increase in library card signups from September 2015. During the October Board meeting, Andrea Fanta (Communications Manager) and Emily Waltenbaugh (Public Information Officer) will share more on the programs NPL’s Communications staff designed to boost patron engagement and library card registration in September 2015.
Collections and Technology Services Report Besides an unbelievably successful start to the school year with unprecedented Limitless Libraries circulation, we continue to move forward on many other projects. A Shared Systems Coordinator has been hired to help plan and implement the new shared system we plan on purchasing with MNPS so that we will have only one library automation system. We have also been heavily involved with the renovations at Bordeaux and Edmondson Pike – planning the collection spaces and technology for the newly redesigned branches. The web project continues to move forward, just not quite as fast as we would like. While migration to the new site is happening, we are re-writing a lot of the existing content and working with all of the individual departments to update and modernize their stories. James Staub, our Systems Librarian, has worked with NAZA staff and Metro Information Technology Services to get them ready for the new school year so that attendance can be taken and statistics collected. The web team and I are planning to take over the registration and tracking of the Summer Scholars program under NAZA as well. We are starting to code that new process so that in early spring, signups can begin. We are also getting ready to roll out some new products to patrons – Lynda.com (a DIY training aid), ArtistWorks (a music instruction database) BrainHQ (a brain training database similar to Luminosity) and OneClickDigital (more downloadable audiobooks). The web team, Communications team, internal and external training and collection development are working to package these new products and have them 21 | P a g e
ready to roll out to patrons in January. We are going to roll them out as suggestions for folks who want to exercise their brains for the New Year.

Loving & Learning workshops with the WIC program at the South Nashville Nutrition Center have been overwhelmingly successful. We routinely have more families sign up for our library sessions than typically sign up for WIC classes. We are working with a children's literacy program in Monrovia, Liberia, providing BBTL resources and helping them launch their parent workshop program. Adult Literacy Hosted 4 events, serving 172 people Hosted our annual conference, the Middle TN Adult Education Symposium. 150 people attended this daylong event showing a 40% increase in attendees over last year. NPL made two exciting announcements at the event: 1) Adult Educator of the Year, an award recognizing a local teacher; 2) Pathway for Adult Learners, an online referral tool for community resources. NAZA The NAZA After Zone launched on September 14, engaging over 1,000 middle school students from 22 middle schools at 46 sites county-wide. Evidence proves interest and engagement in reading and learning declines in middle school, and motivation to read is linked to academic achievement in reading. NAZA’s goal is to excite students about reading and writing by focusing on their interests, building literacy-rich spaces, and utilizing dynamic, social, and interactive literacy activities. Our Literacy Coach coordinates our work with Limitless Libraries and has established a "Reading Mentors" program where 14 branch librarians have volunteered to visit and bring great books and activities to NAZA sites. 22 | P a g e
