Request/Subject

Library Service Agreement with the San Carlos Public Library.

Background Information

The Gila County Library District contracts annually with the eight affiliate libraries to cooperate with the provision of library services to the residents of Gila County. These service agreements serve as contracts for facilitating funding and resource sharing. This is the eighth and final agreement for FY 2010-2011. It was delayed pending final agreement between the two parties regarding the addendum language, and has now been approved by the tribal attorney and the County Attorney's Office.

Evaluation

The funding amount for the San Carlos Library has not changed from last year. The Library District matches up to an upper limit for city, town and tribal libraries. Library District funding will match up to $32,920.00 for the San Carlos Public Library operating expenses. These funds will be distributed in two installments: the first as soon as this agreement is approved, and the second in May 2011.

Conclusion

Approval of the Library Service Agreement will facilitate funding and resource sharing for the San Carlos Public Library.

Recommendation

I recommend approval of the Library Service Agreement between Gila County Library District and the San Carlos Public Library for fiscal year 2010-2011.

Suggested Motion

(Motion to adjourn as the Gila County Board of Supervisors and convene as the Gila County Library District Board of Directors.)
