Board Meeting
Tuesday, February 28, 2012 1. Meeting called to order at: 7:03 Present: David Allen, President Jim Kidd Geoff Kragen, Secretary Dave Steele Mary Steele, Treasurer Vick Miller Shirley Brown Ken Webb Absent: Scott Reid, Vice President Mike Bardini Neighbor(s): Lyn Brown Melinda Shrader Al Epes Fran Webb Denise Epes Myrna Walthen Lance Hibben Guest(s): Natasha Casteel, City Librarian, City of Roseville Ashley Trew Library Supervisor, City of Roseville Sergeant Cal Walstad, Police Officer, City of Roseville Officer Lee Hendrick, Police Officer, City of Roseville 2. Special Presentation: Ms. Castell provided the mission, vision, and values statements for the
library system. She expanded on these statements. She also included a copy of the annual re-port. (see attached) Last year there were over 500,000 visitors and 120,000 pieces of materi-als available throughout the city system.
Ms. Castell noted the following: (1) There are computers available and used for online access at all branches. (2) Tutoring is provided at some locations for computers and tablets. (3) Service dogs come to the library to help children with reading difficulties. The children read to them which is less threatening than reading to adults. (4) The Friends of the Library generate 16-20 thousand dollars through book sales each year and provide approximately 2 thousand in grants.
Volunteers Needed: The library can use volunteers to help with both the Library Cen-tennial and Literacy programs (the latter to be held during Library Week.) There are a num-ber of other opportunities for volunteers.
Ms. Castell introduced the a new Maidu Library Supervisor, Ashley Trew. The library system is hiring new supervisors and a technology position to help with the systems and teach tech classes.
Q – How has the Maidu reopening on Saturday gone? A – There has been better than usual usage for a library that closed and then reopened. The success has become an example to the system to show that other branches should have their hours/days increased.
Q – How does the floating collection work? A – Material purchases are made centrally. This allows uses to order books through the system (including online). They can be returned
to any branch. The movement of the collection is therefore at the hands of the users allowing for greater efficiency.
Q – Are there volunteer opportunities other than the three typical ones? A – After regis-tering online and a background check has been completed, there are many other tasks. Jessica Reed is the volunteer coordinator at Maidu and can be contacted for specific opportunities.
3. Minutes of previous meeting: Approved 4. Treasurer’s report: Beginning February Balance: $1,603.50. Ending February Balance:
$1,603.50. 5. RCONA report:
a. Susan Rohan told Jim the city is continuing to work on the bike trail that passes through our neighborhood.
b. Report on the Chili Cook off (see attached.) 6. Police Report: Officer Walstad reported that crime has been up a bit in the neighborhood. He
provided some of the specific details. (See crime reports are available through the police de-partment email list. Also information can be found at Crimemapping.com) There hasn’t been much vandalism of late.
Instead the newest trend has been to force the top of garage doors open using an air blad-der and then a hook to pull the release and get into the garage and finally into the home. He recommended shortening or removing the hand release (this hasn’t happened yet in Rose-ville, but has in Rocklin).
Officer Walstad mentioned the new alarm monitoring program as well as the Citizen Academy in March.
People have been calling him directly when they hear something going on instead of call-ing the Department (this is because of his listing in the newsletter). The problem is with peo-ple going in through a side yard and then through the back.
Catalytic converter thieves are using GPS to help with thefts. They identify sites during the day, then go back at night. Metal thefts are spreading beyond Toyotas and high risers. The police recommends having the car license engraved on the converter. This also allows for the police to arrest the purchaser for receiving stolen goods.
There are ongoing problems on Sterling Court but they are primary neighbor on neighbor thefts (Sterling Court apartments are not part of the association).
As a result of our last board meeting two neighbors on opposite sides of their street worked together to observe and call in what looked suspicious activity leading to a number of arrests.
7. Library Report: Fran will work with Ashley regarding getting volunteers for the literacy pro-
gram. (see attached) 8. Old Business:
a. Garage Sale: David A will be talking to Mike for more information on its status. b. Dog waste bags at W. Colonial open space: Jim talked with Scott Miller of Parks and
Rec. Because of the city’s budget they will check to see if a waste station is needed. But
if they need one it will be taken from Maidu. This will be the one used least. The bags supplied by the city are only to be used if needed not to be taken instead of buying one’s own. We will wait on a response back to see if we should help out to pay for one.
9. New Business: None. 10. Announcements and Remarks: Shirley mentioned that the Forrest House, Head Trauma Care
Home, 1934 Branding Iron Way, is having an Open House of the new residential care home on Friday, March 2 from 5 pm until 8 pm. Enjoy refreshments and beverage with friends, family, and neighbors. Domenic LaFazia is the Executive Director, telephone (916) 768-4514.

Library Volunteers
Volunteer participation continues to soar with 8,017 hours logged this past fiscal year, an increase of 19% from last year. The library is a vital community hub offering a variety of volunteer opportunities to children, teens, families, and adults. We continue to grow the array of activities from homework helpers, story time leaders, adult literacy tutors, shelvers, to Eagle Scout computer classes for seniors, teen art projects and our upcoming computer tutor program for adults. The community enjoys the extra programs and services our volunteers provide.
Teen Library Council
The Roseville Teen Library Council meets monthly to provide input on teen programming, teen materials and to help increase the usage of the library by
their peers. The first Teen P h o t o g r a p h y Contest was held in the fall with over 60 photos s u b m i t t e d . Addtionally a Text a Poem contest was held during
Teen Tech Week in February. In April they performed a puppet show at the annual Earth Day celebration. Finally, this volunteer group was able to select 30 new young adult books and a new teen magazine to add to the library’s collection.
Homework Help
Homework Help is held during the school year on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 3:00 – 5:00pm. Students in grades 1 - 8 may drop in during these hours and a volunteer will help them with assignments in subjects like math, science, writing and more. Close to 600 students took advantage of Homework Help at the three library locations this past year.
Mother Goose on the Loose
Our very popular Mother Goose on the Loose program c o n t i n u e d to grow this year! Staff estimates that 10,342 people attended this wonderful and i n t e r a c t i v e p r o g r a m . At the Martha Riley Community Library sessions reached capacity week after week, with numbers also increasing at the Downtown Roseville and Maidu Libraries.
Poetry Awards
The Roseville Public Library 23rd Annual Youth Poetry Contest kicked off with a poetry workshop lead by local poet Marc Schmatjen. Youth in grades 1-12 submitted a poems, with over 550 entries received. Judges for this year’s contest included Elizabeth and Kathryn Franklin, Jessica Huff and Adrianna Bayer-Simone. The Poetry Awards Ceremony was held during National Library Week where winners read their poems out loud and received their prizes. The Friends of the Roseville Public Library provide the funding for this annual program.
I love the programs! Nice mix of sitting and movement.
~About Mother Goose on the Loose
The libraries are an important component of a balanced
community, providing many opportunities one doesn’t find
anywhere else. Roseville has had a dynamic library system and
hopefully will continue to see the value the libraries bring to the
people of our city; academically and socially, especially for those for
It was a great year for the Library’s Tales to Tails program where children ages 6 - 12 gain confidence by reading aloud to friendly library dogs. The program was able to expand from 8 dog teams to 12 dog teams, allowing for up to 16 more children per year in the program. The Placer Country Reading Council honored the program with the Celebrate Literacy Award, recognizing the program as one “which inspires a love of reading in children while increasing their fluency” in May 2011. Support for the program has been generously sponsored by the Roseville Library Foundation. Future sessions are scheduled forn October 2011.
Scholastic Book Fair
Scholastic Book Fair fundraisers were held December 2010 and June 2011 at the Riley Library. Between the two events $6,126 books and gift were sold. The library’s total profit was $3,891 which was used to purchase additional youth books for the library. The next fair is scheduled for November 2011.
Other Program Offerings
The Library generated $25,200 in fee based programs through different classes and camps. Guitar, drum, and etiquette lessons, as well as book themed programs like American Girls, continue to be in high demand. I n n o v a t i v e program ideas like these increase the oppor tunit ies for learning and exploration at the library.
California Library Literacy Services & Virgil Harrigan Bequest
The Adult Literacy program, supported by the California State Library from a grant for $34,500, the City of Roseville and the Virgil Harrigan Beqest for $20,000, has now completed its first full year. This program pairs a volunteer tutor with an adult learner. The program focuses on adult basic education and GED preparation including reading, writing and math skills. This year the program helped 78 learners, 35 of whom met their goals. A book club and learner lab were established and tutor workshops continue to be held each month.
Public Library Staff Education Program
Under this program, funding to reimburse staff for a c a d e m i c c o u r s e w o r k taken in an A m e r i c a n L i b r a r y A s s o c i a t i o n a c c r e d i t e d M a s t e r ’ s program in library and i n f o r m a t i o n science was awarded to the library to distribute to staff who applied for the program in the amount of $8,024. Staff members attended Drexel University (Sacramento) and San Jose State University. Staff that were awarded the grant plan to graduate with their Master’s degree in Library and Information Science within the next fiscal year.
Friends of the Roseville Public Library
The Friends of the Roseville Public Library continued supporting the library by working to provide more books, media and services at the three Roseville libraries. The Friends donated $17,637 which funded materials like story time kits and programs like the summer reading club and the youth poetry contest, as well as the Maidu Library’s 20th anniversary birthday party. Additionally, $12,125 in grant money was received and given to the library. Finally, the Friends donated 1,890 hours to help support the libraries.
The boost to my daughters reading was phenomenal. She is shy and needs extra help with reading. She was nervous the
1st session, however the day after the first class she dramatically changed - reading
out loud to me, my husband nonstop. My husband said “she’s different!” I
knew it was the group experience being so warm and friendly. All the children
reading out loud nonstop. Love it!!
~About Tales to Tails
Everything around the library is good. Staff is very courteous. Very clean environment.
~Customer comment
It was perfect and far exceeded expectations. Haley was so excited for
this class and loved everything that was created in it. She had a fantastic time!
~About American Girls Camp
Friends of the Library (continued)
In fiscal year 2011-2012 the r e a l i z a t i o n s of the Friends most important goals during 2010-2011 can be seen by the community: the hiring of a City Librarian, the reopening of Maidu Library on Saturdays and the support of the City by having money from the General Fund added to the book budget.
Roseville Library Foundation
The Roseville Library Foundation is an independent, non-profit organization promoting private donations to ensure the library’s continued growth toward excellence. The Foundation has created an endowment to enhance library materials and services, provide equal access and services to youth, adults and seniors, contribute to capital improvements and to provide ongoing staff professional development. The Foundation fully funded the Tales to Tails program, and gave additional funds for the Northern California Storybook & Literature Festival held July 2010.
Future Trends: Technology
The library is continually searching for the best possible technology to deliver ebooks, both audio and text, for all formats our customers can use. In addition, new
t e c h n o l o g i e s are continually being created. Library staff continues to research new and exciting tools, software and hardware for staff and customer use.
