Agenda:
What’s new in your library? Questions?
- Dickinson Public Library- The director’s last day is Friday. They have just closed the applications this weekend. Cindy isn’t sure where they are with the interview process, but they’ll be getting a new director soon. They have their Christmas social tomorrow, which is a fundraiser by their foundation.
- North Dakota State Library- their last supervisor, Carmen, retired in August, and they will be getting a new supervisor in a few weeks. Also, in a few weeks, they will be doing a big records retention program. It is where you need to keep records only for a certain number of months or years. It is going to be a huge project. They are preparing for a big day when everyone in the building will be working on it. For example, with grant materials, you can only keep them for so long and then you need to get rid of them. If material is kept too long it could cause problems later with open records requests. They are all learning about it together.
