Summer!

The hot weather, well it’s been hot! Soon it will be back to school and what better time to go to the library. Kate Yates the Bilingual Children’s and Teens’ Librarian requested and received funding for Bilingual and Spanish collection display and storage. The funding for display shelves will bring greater visibility to this collection. With this funding the library can ensure more equitable access of materials in the collection.

We appreciate your continued support; your generous donations will help us continue to improve service to our target community and help ensure a positive library experience for all!

The Board approved new bylaws which will be posted for information only on our WEB site. The attorney FOLL engaged with is a non-profit lawyer and provided expert guidance in developing the bylaws. This is the first complete review refresh of the bylaws since inception of the Friend’s.

The second Library feasibility study was received by the City Council May 17, 2022. Just a few highlights:

The library was built for 64, 000 residentsPresently the library is underfunded by $900,000.00There is limited capacity for new programs and events because Longmont does not include these in the library budget

There is one main library and no library branches to serve a population of 98,000. Sometimes, I hear “we don’t want to be Boulder” however, Boulder has a main library and four branch libraries. A refresh is planned for theNorth Boulder Branch,North Boulder Branch Library |Boulder Public Library (boulderlibrary.org). The picture of the refresh tells the story. Boulder Libraries receive $14 million dollars from the city. The Longmont Library receives $4.0 million.

Well, being like Boulder may be wonderful for a library user.


Be well,

Prudence Carter

President FOLL
