Call to Order

Chairperson O’Neil called the meeting to order at 5:55 pm and then called the roll.

The Board Members discussed the hiring of a cleaner for the Library.  A motion was made to hire Becky Harrington to clean the Library weekly for a salary of not more than $30.00 per hour.  The motion was approved, carrying unanimously in the affirmative.

The Board Members then discussed purchasing a new computer for the Library.  The model suggested was a Microsoft Surface Laptop.  The cost would be under $2,000.  It has a 15” screen, comes with Windows 10, and is a distinct upgrade from the computer the Library now has, which is seven years old.  All agreed that this needs to be done.  A motion was made to purchase a Microsoft Surface Laptop using the BOT account.  The motion was approved, carrying unanimously in the affirmative.

The next meeting of the board of Trustees will be on Tuesday, February 4th at 7:00 pm at the Sutton Free Library.
