<br />With these funds, fhrnd~ee will be replaced in the main lobby, as well as new
<br />index and reading areas. In addition, the sign graphics for the library will
<br />improve its appearance and make it easier for the general public to use.
<br />
<br /> According to Mr. Burgess, the furniture being replaced is over twenty years old and has
<br />outlived any reasonable usefulness. I should note that the Library Board has been extremely
<br />supportive o£ this request and has been active in its fund raising activities over the past
<br />several years (averages $2,000 a year ~n donations~. For the most recent year, Friends of thc
<br />Library replaced all the curtains and in previous years provided funds to purchase and ~nstall
<br />the new security system. Furnitfire can be received and placed in use within 60 90 days
<br />after award of contract.

<br /> This request meets with the approval of the City Librarian therefore, I recommend an
<br />appropriation in the amount of $15,000."
