Councillor McCann Meeting Report (September 21, 2021)

Parry Sound Public Library Board Meeting
On Wednesday, September 8, 2021 at 9:00 am, I attended the Parry Sound Public Library Board Meeting.  This was actually held in person at the library while honouring proper safety practices regarding COVID-19.  We have been considering a 'Fine Free' model in dealing with late returns.  Most often people are more likely to provide a modest donation, especially if no ill-will was intended.  We continue to review our policies.  In this last meeting "Policy # H.R. 17 Diversity and Inclusion" was reviewed.  We received a report from our CEO, also a financial report.  We have hired a new circulation person, Juliana Gaukel, and we welcome her to our team!  Upcoming programs include, "Children Story Time", "Surfin' Seniors" and "Halloween Spooky Crawl in conjunction with the Downtown Business Association.
