hands-on, walk-through training.

three-year lease has been negotiated.

LIBRARY BOARD COMMENTS:
Library Board Trustee Moss drew attention to a workshop notice and video from
CALTAC titled “Trustees 2000” and asked if anyone knew anything about it. Nobody
had seen anything on this.
President L’Heureux said there is another program at the Senior Cent&, sponsored by
the Arts Associates and the Friends of the Library. It will begin at 7 o’clock and the
subject is Public Art, if anyone is interested in attending.
LIBRARY INTERNET POLICY AND PROCEDURES:
Director Lange said this is the final version which has been reviewed by the City
Attorney’s office. Director Lange noted that it seems to be working quite well. Library
Board Trustee Moss moved to approve the Internet Policy and Procedures. Library
Board Trustee Curtin seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously.
NEW LIBRARY BUILDING UPDATE - DISCUSSION:
Director Lange displayed the floor plans of the new library and reviewed the project’s
history since the Master Plan was approved in 1986. Because 1988 building codes
were changed in 1994, changes were required in the documents. Also, a lot of
equipment is no longer available and a lot of library furniture has been redesigned.
Council appropriated an additional $337,000 to make all of these changes.
Assistant Director Armour then walked the Board through the floor plans, pointing
all the changes that have to be made.
BUDGET POLICIES AND SCHEDULE FOR FY 1997-98:
Director Lange informed the Board that the budget is due March 10. He will review
out
the
budget at the next board meeting. The new financial system is being used this year.
We will work from a base number and will have to justiv any increases. Assistant
Director Armour said we will have to start talking about budgeting money from State
grants and reimbursements. Director Lange said we have always budgeted CLSA
money. It has been going down and the State Library is trying to get it increased. We
will get almost $40,000 of PLF money this year, which is a big increase. Library Board
Trustee Curtin said it should be pointed out to the City Manager and Council how we
have kept expenses down and ask what chance we have to get a commitment from
them in the future. Library Director responded that the Finance Director has already
told the Council the money will be there to operate the new library.

LIBRARY OBJECTIVES FOR 1997:
Since these are not completed, this item was tabled.
DIRECTOR’S REP0 RT:
Director Lange announced the Arts Commission is having a meeting on March 5, which
will begin at either 4:OO P.M. or 4:30 P.M. He’s not sure of the time yet. One of the
artists for the new library will be there to make a presentation and Director Lange
invited the Board to attend. He said if three or more of them will be there we will have
to notice it as an official meeting. President L’Heureux said she would like to be there
but the rest of the Board did not think they would be able to attend.
Director Lange reported that a new reference librarian has been hired. Suzanne
Smithson has been with the library for quite some time as a clerk. Subsequently she
got her library degree, and worked as a part-time reference librarian. Susan Simpson is
serving on the city’s Strategic Change Team, which is part of the city’s planning
process.
A new bill has been introduced in the senate to allow counties to place a sales tax
measure for libraries on the ballot.
Director Lange will be serving on a panel discussion next Monday for a company in
Carlsbad called Data Trek. They have invited librarians to talk about technology.
Director Lange drew attention to an interesting article in this week’s Newsweek
Magazine by a user of the new Science Library at the New York Library. The article is
about not being able to be a traditional library while at the same time carrying new
technology.
FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY:
Director Lange reported that the Friends had a very successful book sale. There were
fewer books than usual, but much better quality.
GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY:
Mr. Ireland reported they are handling changes in personnel and organization. They
are delighted with the new librarian, Mary Van Orsdol. Mr. Ireland indicated he hoped
to attend more Library Board meetings.

MONTHLY STATEMENT
DECEMBER 1996
In December, the Children’s Library staff answered nearly 1,600 reference questions.
Nearly 15,000 items were circulated and 15 programs were presented. The total
attendance for programs for the month was nearly 500.
The programs included our standard programs such as Grandparents Storytime,
Storytime and Storycraft. We also had several special programs that included;
Celebrate Chanukah, Let’s celebrate Kwanzaa, the Tree Trimming party, an author
program with Joyce Carol Thomas from the National Book Foundation and the Spotlight
Singers’ holiday choral program.
Storytime and Grandparents Storytime met for only a few weeks in December’ due to
the holidays. We usually see a major drop in attendance during the holidays. Due to
the confusion of our patrons about the name “Grandparents Storytime”, we will be
changing the name to “Storytime for Kids”. Some people thought that the program
meant that children would read to the grandparents and others thought that you had to
be a grandparent in order to volunteer to read to the children. Since neither was the
case, we thought that the name change would clarify the matter and, it is hoped, lead to
an increase in attendance.
The Chanukah program featured the history of Chanukah with song and audience
participation. It was both educational and entertaining. The Kwanzaa program had
those qualities, as well. It was the first program we had had on Kwanzaa, but it won’t
be the last. Children learned the customs and principles of Kwanzaa in this program
presented with humor, joy and respect for these traditions.
The Tree Trimming party was well attended, with all making snowflake ornaments for
our tree and to take home. Refreshments were served and lots of glitter and good
cheer was spread around.
In cooperation with Walden Books we were pleased to have a reception for YA author
Joyce Carol Thomas. She read excerpts from her books and spoke to the audience
about the joys of poetry. She also autographed copies of her books ,and enjoyed the
refreshments and the questions asked by several young readers.
Our final program of the month was the holiday choral program presented by the
Spotlight Singers. This group is comprised of sixty, fifth and sixth graders, from Hope
Elementary School. They sang a variety of holiday songs on the front lawn of the
Library. Many patrons, as well as friends and parents enjoyed the performance.

ROMS Daily average circulation was 763 and hourly, 73. This was a 3%
increase over December of 1995.
users
User numbers are not available this month. The counter at the door
malfunctioned and was sent in for repairs. The manufacture and repair
company (Mark Walker, of Indiana) said the photo cell needed to be
replaced. The repair person suggested that a surge protector be used to
prevent a spike which was the probable cause of the problem. By early
January, daily statistics should again be available.
Children’s Activities
The children’s area was alive with holiday activities this month.
Although this is traditionally a quiet month, 8 programs were planned
and one preschool tour was given. Storyhours were multicultural,
celebrating the various candle lighting ceremonies of Hanukah, Kwanza
and Christmas.
A special multicultural holiday musical program was given the evening of
December 18th. Patsy Scott Larson performed music to celebrate the
season. It was a family event with parents enjoying the program with
their young children. Approximately 40 people attended.
Staff
Part time Branch Reference Librarian, Mary Van Orsdol, left the Branch
to head the Genealogy Department at the Main Library. Karen Maynor-
Mitchell was given Mary’s hours. Meg Norton, a new Reference Librarian
on the Branch staff became the new Reference Substitute, taking over
Karen’s position. Meg also works at the Escondido Public Library.

On December 9 and 23, the Automation Commitee f inaliZed the policies and

appointments for the public to use the Internet on Monday December 23. There
were 19 users during the first week.
During the month of December there were 486 questions answered at the

average number of questions per day was 27; average number per hour was 16.
Recruitment of volunteers from the Friends of the Library is being investigated
to increase the number of hours covered.
Technical Services Report
December 1996
In December, Technical Services staff added 919 new print item and 344 audiovisual
items to the library’s collection. They deleted from the system 972 print items and 705
audiovisual items.
Patrons used home computers to dial into the libran. catalog 264 times. Patrons with the
Mainstreet service accessed the catalog 7 times. While dial access usage has remained
steady for some time, Mainstreet usage has fallen steadily. This service was terminated
by the cable company on December 3 1‘ 1996, and the equipment was removed on
January 6, 1997.
On December 30, we installed Netscape Navigator on one of the public computers in the
reference area, the one being used for DRA Find, and public Internet access was officially
available. Additional security software was added on January 8, so that users will not be
able to alter the icons on the computer or save files to the hard drive. After a period of
evaluation, we hope to provide Internet access for thc public at a PC in the children’s
room as well.
Early in the month, Chris Pickavet attended the annual conference of the Inlex Users
Group. In addition to offering workshops on technical subjects such as cabling and
wiring for libraries, the conference planners also invited representatives from DRA, the
company that owns the Inlex software, to speak about the company’s plans for the future.
DRA intends to replace their existing products with a new generation of library software
based on client-server technology. Under these products, our database and the programs
we use for circulation and database maintenance would continue to reside on a mini-
computer, but instead of using the dedicated terminals (frequently called ”dumb
terminals”, because they have no computer capabilities) we currently use, all workstations
would have to be personal computers. The cost to upgrade to the new products, which
will be available in approximately 12 to 1 S months, will be considerable, since we would
have to replace almost all of our hardware, including our mini-computer, all the dedicated
terminals, and all the cabling in the library. However, our existing system is getting old,
and the mini-computer will need to be replaced in the near future. Over the next year, we
will need to begin evaluating whether we wish to stay with DRA or switch to another
vendor.

design work for the proposed Carlsbad City Library project.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
approving a consultant agreement and appropriating funds for
The City's capital improvement program (CIP) budget identifies funding to begin construction of
the Carlsbad City Library project on the City's El Camino Real and Alga Road site during the 1997-
98 fiscal year. The CIP budget also appropriates funds during the 1996-97 fiscal year to reactivate
the design team, determine the necessary changes to the 1991 set of project documents to bring
them current to 1997$andards, and begin the redesign of the project.
i ,#
Staff has met%ith the design team, headed by Cardwell - McGraw Architects, and reviewed the
1991 sel of project documents. Because of the extended passage of time and changing building
codes: substantial modifications are required ro bring the document package to current building
standards. At1 of the project's permits and entitlements have expired and require renewal.
Additionally, several internal modifications to the building are required to incorporate the depth
and breadth of library service technological advances made since 1991.
Over the last several months, staff has spent considerable time meeting with the design team in an '
effort to determine the extent of the modifications and evaluate their need and value to the
project. At staff's request, the design team ha5 evaluated and cost-estimated on a sheet by sheet
basis the required modifications to bring the 1991 project to 1997 building and technology
standards. A narrative discussion summarizing thc required document changes has been prepared
by the design team, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.
Attached as Exhibit 2 for the City Council's review and approval is a consulting agreement
incorporating the necessary modifications to the Carlsbad City Library project's extensive set of
documents to bring them to 1997 standards. Staff recommends approval of the consulting
agreement and authorization to proceed with the redesign effort. At this City Councit meeting,
staff's presentation will address a history and current status of the project, a discussion of the
impacts of required building code changes upon the 1991 project documents, and an update of
the project's I ibrary service technology requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The attached consulting agreement for updating the 1991 building documents to 1997 standards
and incorporating the required library service technologies is estimated robe $378,079. Because
of the size and complexity of the project, staff recommends carrying a 10% design contingency

approving application for an InFoPeople Grant from
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On December 30, 1996, the library installed Netscape Navigator at one workstation
in the adult section of the main library and began offering public access to the
Internet. Without major publicity, this station is getting about ten people a day
signing up for use. The library would like to expand this service to children and
young adults by establishing Internet stations in the children’s area of the main
Ii b rary .
The California State Library has announced (Exhibit 2) that InFoPeople (Internet for
People) grants will be expanded in 1996-97 to include any eligible libraries that did
not participate in an earlier round of grants. The library is eligible to apply for an
InFoPeople grant and wishes, if successful, to use the grant to bring Internet
access to the children’s area of the library. The application dzadline is January 30,
1997. Successful applicants will be awarded $5,000 to purchsse two workstations
with a modem, printer, and communications sofr,vare. Workstations must meet or
exceed specifications noted in Exhibit 3 (Grant Program Guidelines.) The applicant
must arrange for a community-based partner to share in the development and
administration of Internet resources. The library’s community partner will be the
Interact Club of Carlsbad High School.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The grant will provide $5,000 for two workstations, communications software, on-
site service warranties, and a minimum of 100 hours of dial-up connect time to the
Internet. The following expenses are not covered and would have to be managed
within the library’s budget:
Internet access from ZNET, estimated at $290 per year
Supplies of paper and ink cartridges estimated at $500 per year.
One-time cost of filtering software (Cyber Patrol) at $70

provide the same level of public access of the Internet is used in another facility of the
library jurisdiction, please summarize the current status of the library facility and/or
jurisdiction and the staff with regard to Internet. Describe how your facility is currently
using the Internet.
If the branch currently uses the Internet for purposes other than public access, or
Carlsbad City Library currently has Internet access at one work station in the adult reference
section at the main library. Adult reference staff also have access at one terminal behind the
reference desk. Public access to the Internet has only been available since December 30, 1996.
The branch library does not have any Internet services available to either staff or public. The
Children’s Services division of the main library does not have Internet access for staff or the
public.
Several members of the Children’s Services staff have some Internet experience. Some have
attended workshops, others have Internet access at their hcmes. The Intmet has not been a
regular part of the professional duties of the Children’s Library stafi and no staff members sre
trained in the use of this information tool.
7.
and the rationale for its selection (Le. Reference, Children’s Department etc.)
Describe the public service area in which you would install the Internet workstation
The Internet workstation would be placed in the Children’s Services 8rea of the main library. A
computer work station is now in place near the Children’s Reference Desk. It currently houses one
computer with CD ROM products for students‘ use. This work station has space to add 3
additional corn pu ters.
With Internet access currently available to adults, the library selected the Children’s Services
division as the next target site for Internet service. The location of these computers will be in close
proximity to the reference desk, allowing staff to quickly assist young patrons with their
information searches. In addition, phone lines and computer furniture are already located in this
area.
8.
public access to the Internet in your facility and the uses they would make of it. Describe
the process whereby you obtained this information.
Identify the local community groups, organizations, etc. that might benefit from
In a survey of surrounding libraries in the North County area of San Diego, we found that no other
library in this area has Internet access in their Children’s Department. For that reason, an Internet
Site at the Carlsbad City Library should draw students from throughout the area. The target
audience includes the following groups:
School Students - Students from schools throughout the area are expected to utilize the Internet
to search for information for school assignments. Service will also be provided to a large
population of home-schooled students who could utilize this tool throughout the school day.
Yo&h Grouos - Many youth groups use the library for tours and information gathering. These
groups include the local Boys and Girls Club, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Girls Club, and after school
day care groups. An increase in use by these groups once Internet is in place should follow.
Centro de lnformacion - This facilty is located a short-distance from the mein library. Its purpose is
to serve the local Hispanic community. For children who are served by the Centro, the Internet
workstation at the main library will also serve their computer and research needs. The main library
is within walking distance of the Centro, and crossover use of both libraries is encouraged
throughout the community.
Information on these groups and organizations was obtained from the library’s previous
knowledge of, and networking with, the Carlsbad community.
9.
projxt?
How will library service in your area be improved by your library’s participation in this
With the addition of Internet access, patrons will be eble to ~ccess informtion swrces that have
not been accessible in the past. The single computer now wailable in the Children’s Libraiy is
hooked up to the city computer network and Children’s Sen/ices has only ken authorizzd to have
2 CD ROM slots for its use. This has limited the computer reference sources available to students.
With the addition of two standalone computers with Internet ~ccess, there will be a significent
increase in the number of students able to locate informaticn relevant to thE.ir assignments. For
example, mmy newspEpers that the library dces not subscribe to are sveilzble online for children
to use when doing homework assignments in social studies. While the libray has the San Diego
Union back issues avzilsble on the periodical index, the lag time is 3 montfs. When students
need information on news that occurred a mcnth ago or s1 LV& 2go they will be able to access it
through the Internet. For students researching colleges and universities, mmy offer online
catalogs, homepages with information not available in catalqs 2nd online applications.
Children’s Services staff has been networking with libraries in the Serra system to identify web
sites that are of interest to children, teens and parents. A file folder with hundreds of pertinent
sites has been developed and will be available immediately for patron use. Some of the identified
sites include information on African-American history, Museum networks, sports scores and
statistics, financial aid information for college spplicants, White House tour, home schooling and
many more.
Sites that provide information on regular school assignments have also been identified. Students
can access web sites on California Indians and missions, endangered species, rain forests,
countries and states, whales, ancient cultures, planets 2nd find in-depth information for school
assignments. Students researching diseases for science projects will have several medical
databases available for their research. In addition, library service to students will be significantly
improved for assignments where large groups of students are working on the same project. In the
past the library has had a lack of circulating materials on specific subjects, such as California
missions and Indians. With Internet access, students will heve the ability to print and take home
information about such subjects.
It will be significant for children to have their own work station with Internet access since the
library is getting heavy use at the adult terminal. Students will be able to spend the time needed to
obtain information for their school assignments with assistance from trained children‘s library staff
and library volunteers. One staff member will be designated to assist students in the computer
area. In addition the community partner for this project hss czmmitted to assisting in the cmputer
area during after school, evening and weekend hours.
10. Describe your plans for unmediated direct public services that would be delivered
through the Internet to your users from this facility. (These might include: access to the
library cataloguelspecial files, creation and mounting a community database, etc.) How
likely is this vision to occur, and why?
To address parental concerns regarding access to pornocpphic or other unsuitable materials by
minors, a filtaring system ,“Cyber Patrol”,will be installed. Ir, addition, all students will be required
to have a psrental consent form for Internet use on file in the Children’s Library.
Currently patrons have access to Carlsbad, San Diego CCUZ:~. San Diegc Public, and Chula Vista
library card catalogs through DAR Find. With the Internet, parons will also have sccess to the
Cerlsbad’s home pegs, which is under deve!opment at this tine. The city’s home page will
eventually ink patrons with all the city’s servicas, such as Pxks and Recreation programs, City
Council Meetings, 2nd local history. Library ~ccess to the Intsicei will provide students with 2
hands-on basic understanding of internet resources 2nd prxticsl expzrience in its use.
The Children’s Library plans to set up a web page customiz22 fcr Children’s Services and linked
to other sites that have topics of interest to children. This hcrne page would include information
about upcoming programs ai all age levets. including presckol storyhours, after school resding
clubs, special petformers, authors, and the Summer Reacficq Program. It wculd include fiction
reviews, award winning books, new non-fiction books thet have been added to the collection,
volunteer opportunities for youth, contests, 2nd class exhibks on display in the Children’s Library.
The home page would have links to other arezs of interest such as the local Parks and Recreation
calendar, local school home pages, children’s museums, ywth service organizations, youth
sports organizations, and homework help lines.
The Carlsbad City Library Automation Committee unmimously agrees on the importance of
Internet access for library patrons. Access for both adults 2nd children is a high priority. The
library will continue to devote staff time and as much funding as possible in these economically
challenging times towards developing Internet access as an educational resource.

13. Why was the individual cited in #I2 selected for participation in this project and
how do they plan to promote this project within your community?
The library has had an excellent working relationship with the President of the Interact Club
for many years. The Club has expressed interest in helping our young patrons who frequent
the Children's Library. They have donated toys and many educational materials which
benefit our patrons. As past President of the Interact Club, David Goodman is a leader of a
very active group of high school students who will in turn help implement this project. They
will be donating time not only for their own training, but also as volunteer tutors helping
students use the resources of the Internet. They are also a fundraising community partner
who will assist us in acquiring materials needed for this project in the future. From the large
student base at Carlsbad High School the Interact Club will disseminate information about
Internet access available to all students. News of this project will also be distributed to the
junior high, elementary and private schools. This promotional plan will come direct from the
Interact Club and will be based on its service in the community. Flyers and announcements
at club meetings and ongoing partnership meetings with library staff will be an asset to this
promotional campaign.
