Information

Request/Subject

Approval of the Library Service Agreement for the San Carlos Public Library for FY 20/21.

Background Information

The Gila County Library District contracts annually with the affiliate public libraries to cooperate in the provision of library services to the citizens of the District. These Library Service Agreements serve as contracts for facilitating funding and resource sharing.

On August 17, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Library Service Agreements for Globe, Isabelle Hunt (Pine), Miami, Payson, Tonto Basin, and Young public libraries for the period July 1, 2020, to June 30, 2021. The Library Service Agreement for San Carlos Library was delayed due to COVID-19 and tribal buildings closed and are being presented to the Board for approval at this time.

Evaluation

Library funding is based on the aggregate percentages of the four library service measures, from the baseline FY 12, along with a base amount for each of the community libraries. This year's funding totals are as follows:

San Carlos Public Library - $34,270.

The Library District will distribute these amounts in two installments -- the first, following this approval, and the second in May 2021.

Conclusion

Approval of the FY 20/21 Library Service Agreement with the San Carlos Apache Tribe will facilitate funding and resource sharing with the affiliate libraries of the Gila County Library District. The San Carlos Public Library is an affilliate library.

Recommendation

The Gila County District Librarian recommends approval of the FY 21 Library Service Agreement between the Gila County Library District and the San Carlos Apache Tribe.
