Report of the Board President: Acting President DePiero stated he does not have a report this month.

Report of the Executive Director: Executive Director Strobel thanked Vice Chair DePiero for accepting role as Acting President this evening.

Executive Director Strobel shared an update on branch circulation and visit statistics. When comparing this May’s statistics to last May, in 2020 we are looking great. Looking back to 2019, for a better reality check we have some catching up to do, which is a theme this summer in our external communications.

Circulation in May of this year was down 29% over circulation in May 2019.

Circulation of digital content in May 2021 was up 21% over May 2019. People over the past 15 -16 months have moved from physical materials that they could not get when our doors were closed to digital materials, and they are continuing with those digital materials. Our physical materials are still very important we circulated 100,000 items in May.

Branch visits in May were down 53% over May 2019. Executive Director Strobel mentioned she is sharing this to make sure our Trustees know that we are paying attention to this and aware that there is work to be done and we are doing that work and we will be continuing to do that work to get our numbers where they should be.

That significant drop in visits is related to the fact that we are not doing much of in person programming, which brings people through the doors. We credit a very large part of our foot traffic every day to program attendance. As social distancing guidelines begin to relax, we certainly welcome larger audiences back to our branches. We are eager to enjoy programming in person. We are starting to do small programs, and outdoor programs. We want to make sure everyone both staff and customers are comfortable.

Director Rich and her team are working on additional strategies to invite our customers back. She is working with WKYC to refresh messaging. There is also a collaboration in the works with United Health Care and the State of Ohio for CCPL to serve as vaccine sites at twelve locations to try and motivate people to come and get their vaccines if they have not yet.

CCPL Communications and External Relations (CER), Branches and our Friends groups are collaborating to host a big book sale event here at the Parma-Snow Branch on August 6 & 7. We paused book donations during the pandemic, and we know when we reopen, the used books will pour in beyond what we are able to store in our branches and we will be working in conjunction with

173 | Page

shipping and different areas internally to make this event happen. We are excited to have a big book sale that will include programming, food trucks and lots of media promotion and remind people that we are open. We have lots to do here to serve the families and residents and try to get them back into the habit of coming to the library after losing that as part of their daily, weekly, and monthly routine. We will be holding an all-staff development day on November 11. Our new strategic plan and brand identity will be unveiled along with keynote speakers and workshops to help prepare us for our exciting future. A lot of what we are planning and starting to plan for the 100-year anniversary will also be focused on. Bringing people back to the library and providing them with programs and services and resources that motivate them after having gotten out of the library habit. Executive Director Strobel welcomed Monique Good, Human Resources Director and introduced Traci Haynes, Engagement and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Manager to give an update on DEI initiatives. She welcomed Ms. Haynes to CCPL.

Director Good stated she and Ms. Haynes will present a very brief overview of where we are and where we are going with our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion initiatives.

Director Good reintroduced Ms. Haynes who comes to us with 10 years’ DEI experience and 20 years Employee Engagement experience. Welcome Ms. Haynes to CCPL.

Ms. Haynes thanked everyone for welcoming her into the CCPL family. Everyone has been so nice in reaching out to her, and it makes her feel part of the team and she is so grateful to work here.

Director Good gave an update on what we have been doing over the past year with regards to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. We have had some diversity talks. Starting in June, we had Independent Consultant Katherine Hall talking about systemic racism. These talks were open to CCPL Managers and our next step is to open it up to all staff. We have partnered with some people in the community, and they have come in to talk with CCPL Managers and the Managers were able to ask questions. It was very well attended. These talks were very informative and very comfortable for our staff.

CCPL partnered with Tri-C and conducted a DEI survey. She shared the overall highest rated items; they were rated from one to five. Director Good commented the highest rated items showed that our employees are happy to be working here at CCPL, and they are very interested and very supportive of our DEI efforts and from the comments they want to see more, and they are looking forward to what we are going to do.

In our lowest rated items there was nothing below the middle of the scale, but we know what we must focus on in our diversity strategies. It showed employees are interested in how to move forward in their own career paths. As a result, we are going to focus on expanding our mentorship program, succession planning, and career pathing.

Director Good mentioned we have seen slight movement in our demographics from 2020, and we do have a long way to go, but we are moving in the right direction. She commented all our Hiring Managers are aware from the questions and comments that she is receiving. They are asking questions on what we can do to expand our diverse population? our diverse applicants? and our diverse interviewees? and she is glad about that.

174 | Page

Director Good highlighted our Branch Manager demographics, and this might be changing today because of one diverse hire. She wants diverse hire and says we are going in the right direction.

Trustee Blakemore asked have we talked about any specific steps to help move the needle?

Director Good answered that we have had conversations. We have had talks with Director Jankowski and Director Vicchiarelli. She says the reason she highlights their names is because they are over our largest population which are the branches. Our conversations are what can we do? here is an idea and what do you suggest? They are heartfelt. We have these great positions, and we want to diversify the workforce, but we need to figure out how do we get diverse applicants? where do we get our applicants? How do we get them to know that the library is a good place to work? these are our biggest challenges. Director Good says she and Ms. Haynes will be working on these in the future.

Ms. Haynes shared information about the initiatives we will be doing in the future.

Ms. Haynes stated Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is very important to us at CCPL. We are looking inward initially by focusing on our workplace culture. The CCPL employees reflect the brand of who we are and how we are viewed. As employees are invited respectfully and freely, share their voice in the organization, we can be the employer of choice.

Ms. Haynes stated here are a few initiatives we are putting into place to help influence an inclusive culture at CCPL:

As we redefine our programs, we will host DEI Talks which are specific subject-focused programs where internal and external guests will share their expertise. To help accommodate various learning styles, these sessions will be in a variety of forms including workshops, presentations, and discussion.

We will continue to host DEI Town Hall meetings. Moving forward, Town Halls will be CCPL staff-led informative engagement sessions. As with the DEI Talks, the DEI Town Hall meeting will accommodate various learning styles, these sessions will be in a variety of forms including workshops, presentations, and discussion.

As Executive Director Strobel mentioned in the Town Hall meeting that was held in May, Affinity Groups will be created at CCPL. Affinity Groups are employee-led, volunteer groups of people who hold a shared or common interest. Affinity Groups promote a work culture where people feel safe to present fresh ideas, have different perspectives or viewpoints and are encouraged to re-examine the norms. Ms. Haynes stated she will manage the groups as they form and as they mature, the groups will be employee-led.

Commemorative observances will recognize, honor, and commemorate specific days, weeks, or months observations where knowledge, history, fun facts, and local events and activities will be shared with the staff. Examples of commemorative observances are Coming Out Day, Universal Human Rights Month, and National Family Literacy Day.

Respecting diversity allows people from a greater range of different backgrounds to participate fully in and collaborate with other workgroups more productively. Some of the best workplace synergies happen when diverse teams are valued, heard, and respect all members, contributing to better ideas, innovation, creativity and enhanced overall performance.

Trustee Blakemore commented using this year as the baseline and actual goals what is the vision to keep the needle moving.

Ms. Haynes commented yes, we will be establishing goals and moving towards those goals. One skill set is to get together and as we roll out these different initiatives and programs, we will start capturing some data and sharing that out so we can see how and what is working and what is not. The engagement, and DEI is not just a one-person job it is the responsibility of everyone. All the individual contributors, and we need every employee to believe to move this forward and make this a part of the organizational change.

Acting President DePiero thanked both Director Good and Ms. Haynes for that update and encouraged them to keep up the good work.

Executive Director Strobel thanked both Director Good and DEI Manager Haynes as well.

Director Morgan gave highlights from the Finance report. He stated we did not receive any additional property tax money for the month because of settlements we received in the first half, and we should start receiving advances in our second half beginning next month in July.

Director Morgan stated the Public Library Fund for the fifth month in a row was an increase over what we received year-to-date last year. There is some additional information that revenues and the State are up from what the original estimates were. We will continue to monitor this account.

Director Morgan stated salaries and benefits are within budget.

Director Morgan stated library materials are 51% spent most of that has to do with some larger expenditures in the month of January. January is typically a large buying month for both categories. (See Under FINANCE

William J. Leonard, President Board of Trustees Cuyahoga County Public Library Date: July 27, 2021 11 EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE REASONS TO CELEBRATE As we near the end of summer I want to share some reasons to celebrate.

Throughout the pandemic Cuyahoga County Public Library (CCPL) followed the guidance of public health ofﬁ cials to keep our staff and customers as safe and healthy as possible. That guidance led us to take necessary precautions such as closing meeting rooms to the public and temporarily suspending book sales and donations. For more than a year our customers have been asking, “when will your meeting rooms re-open” and “when will you start accepting book donations again?” I am pleased to tell you that time is now.

This July, we re-opened our meeting rooms for the public to reserve and resumed accepting book donations. I know this is welcome news for many of our customers. Our meeting room spaces have long been one of our most valued services and we know they were sorely missed. We also know that many of our customers have been hanging on to books they want to donate to our Friends of the Library book sales, waiting patiently for the day when we would begin accepting donations again. Since we began accepting donations on July 1 we have received an overwhelming amount of books. So many, in fact, that we are going to hold our ﬁ rst-ever Book Blowout Sale at the Parma-Snow Branch from Friday, August 6 through Sunday, August 8, to beneﬁ t our Friends of the Library groups. If you are looking for a great deal on used books, then you do not want to miss this sale.

In other exciting news, we will celebrate the grand opening of the new CCPL Richmond Heights Branch on Saturday, August 14 from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The celebration will be open to the public and will include limited edition commemorative library cards, Pop Culture CLE gourmet ice pops (while supplies last), T-shirt screen printing and other activities. We will also be waiving library ﬁ nes and fees for customers who visit the new branch between August 14 and August 21.

The new Richmond Heights Branch is unique within the CCPL system. Located on the site of the beautiful new Richmond Heights Upper School, it will serve both the school’s students and the general public. We are thrilled to partner with the Richmond Heights Local Schools and Superintendent Dr. Renee Willis on this project and look forward to serving the student body and the public from the new building. Although it is connected to the school, the new Richmond Heights Branch has its own entrance, dedicated parking, will be open seven days a week like our other branches, and will offer public computer stations, meeting rooms and a great selection of materials for all county residents to use and enjoy.

The existing Richmond Heights Branch on Wilson Mills Road will be closed Sunday, August 1 through Friday, August 13, as we prepare to move to our new location. While the branch is closed, the book drop will remain available for returns.

I hope to see you at the grand opening on August 14.

Garinger also noted that numerous customers loved watching the live caterpillars in their netted cage, as she and the participants crafted during one of her innovation creations program. The discussion was about native plants and how they could register their yard as a Monarch Waystation on monarchwatch.org.

On June 19, now ofﬁ cially recognized as Juneteenth, Warrensville Heights Branch Manager Ali Boyd partnered with Uplyff, Inc. and Africa House International to livestream a full Juneteenth celebration at the Dunham Tavern Museum. The celebration consisted of African drum and dance, history lessons, storytelling, poetry, and more. BSL I Jade Walker ran Zoom support for the 29 registrants, many of whom participated in the ongoing discussion with Boyd that occurred in between each presenter at the Museum.

Gates Mills Branch BSL I Wendy Charny visited Gates Mills Nature Camp where she presented several outdoor programs to a total of 40 children between the ages of 3 and 5. The June 24 lesson focused on birds. Charny read aloud books about owls, and children created a paper owl complete with feathers, then blew bubbles to demonstrate how quietly and softly an owl ﬂ ies.

Budding gardeners at the Chagrin Falls Branch joined BSA II Mary Slater for a virtual program on recycled gardening, “From Garbage to Garden.” Fifteen participants used egg cartons, paper towel rolls, and Styrofoam trays to create seedlings. These green thumbs learned about biodegradability and the scientiﬁ c process through experimentation with their seeds and recyclables.

A summer school class of 28 students and four teachers from the Richmond Heights Upper School visited the Mayﬁ eld Branch on June 15 for a tour of the building and a lesson on using the library’s electronic databases to research social justice topics. BSL I Sarah Verlie demonstrated search techniques for various keywords related to the students’ selected topics, and showed students how to correctly cite and save resources they were interested in. Verlie also demonstrated how to use the index and table of contents in nonﬁ ction works. With assistance from reference staff, the students logged on to public PCs to begin their research.

On June 10, 31 children and adults gathered on their blankets under the trees on the Brooklyn Branch’s lawn to listen to the big book story Warthogs in the Kitchen by Pamela Duncan Edwards, at toddler/preschool storytime. Led by BSA I Debbie Szabo, families sang songs, did ﬁ ngerplays and an action rhyme, then were able to come into the branch and get a Grab & Go lunch to eat on their blanket or take home. One grandma said, “This is so great! I don’t like Zoom!”

On June 9, BSA I Bonnie Laessig from the Brook Park Branch and Adult Branch Supervisor Gabriel Venditti from the Brooklyn Branch hosted a painted tote program. Ten enthusiastic participants logged in using Zoom to learn the technique of using shaving cream, fabric paint, and a Cricut-made stencil to create a painted ﬂ ower that they adhered to a tote bag.

The Bay Village Branch Children’s Department led two unique school-age virtual program series in June. At the “Brick Builders” program, 35 participants enjoyed listening to a story at the beginning of the program which created the inspiration for building treehouses, animal crossings and designing their own school. The “First Chapter Doodles” program encouraged 26 kids to draw while listening to the ﬁ rst chapters of an exciting book. Both programs were held three times in June and staff took turns leading them!

A mother and child visited the Parma Heights Branch for some good-ﬁ t ﬁ rst readers. The customers left with a large pile of books. After checking out, mom said, “Thank you for all of your help, you were so helpful! This is really great! We are going to try all these!”

Pop culture historian Bill Brauning extended his record-setting ninth North Royalton Branch Library program when he presented the virtual June 21 lecture, “One-Hit Wonders.” Hosted by BSL II Dan Jezior, 21 individuals logged on for the interesting stories behind the short-lived fame & fortune of a number of musical artists from the ‘50s and ‘60s. 14

The Middleburg Heights Branch installed a Choose Your Own Adventure StoryWalk® at the Middleburg Heights Community center. The 40-plus sign installation features eight different endings and scannable QR codes for the chance to win prizes. On June 4, the Branch held a ribbon-cutting ceremony with remarks given by Cuyahoga County Public Library Executive Director Traci Strobel and Mayor Matthew J. Castelli.

A mom with an infant on her hip stopped in the Parma Branch to thank us for doing Tales to Go. She thinks it is great we are doing it and her baby loves the rhymes. Each week during summer reading we provide a packet with rhymes, ﬁ ngerplays, and activities. Parents can also pick out theme-related books from the display for their own DIY story time! We have given out over 225 packets in June.

The Parma-Snow Branch held its ﬁ rst outdoor storytime on June 15. The theme was pets and some children brought their own stuffed friends from home and got to introduce them at the end of the session. Twenty-four happy customers attended, as well as one very happy children’s librarian who had missed seeing her young patrons.

The Fairview Park Branch’s new BSL I Generalist Jeff Laser taught “How to Start a Podcast at Your Library” webinar for NEO-RLS on June 16.

Twenty people joined the Berea Branch on Zoom for Lou Del Bianco’s fascinating presentation, “Out of Rushmore’s Shadow” on June 7. The presenter is the grandson of the master carver of Mount Rushmore and he brought that story to life for the audience. One customer arrived at the branch, thinking that this was an in-person program, so staff quickly set him up to participate in one of Berea’s Study Rooms. After the program, staff explained how he might participate in future virtual programs from home, but also emphasized that he was always welcome to use a study room for this purpose.

The Strongsville Branch “Young at Heart” book discussion was held on June 1. The seven people, attending by Zoom, talked about the book Things Seen From Above by Shelley Pearsall. To make it a special event, BSL II Tim Protiva arranged for the local author, Pearsall, to also attend.

A patron stopped by the Olmsted Falls Branch seeking help with posting a FSBO (for sale by owner) listing on Zillow. After walking her through creating an account, Teen Librarian Lee Ikimis showed her how to crop her photos and upload them to the service. She was thankful and excited because she had been working on the project for a while on her own and kept running into difﬁ culties.

A regular senior patron walks to the North Olmsted Branch nearly weekly to choose audiobooks to read. With growing concerns about his safety and well-being, staff was able to sign him up for the Library2U program so he can safely enjoy his stories from the comfort of his own home, and gave him some community resources to help with tasks around the house. He has a famously long list of books he’s already read and library staff made them into a shared document to keep the list up to date. Truly a team effort to take care of one of our most loyal customers. 15 VISITS JUNE 2021

Revenues We did not receive any additional revenue for our property tax levies for the month. We should begin to see funds from the second half settlement beginning next month. We are currently with the first half settlements over 50% of expected revenue. This does not necessarily mean we will receive more than our anticipated budget, but we will continue to monitor receipts monthly in anticipation of the second half settlements and final distributions. The PLF distribution for the month was larger than what we received last year in June 2020. This also puts our YTD distribution over what was received last year. There is a smaller amount projected for the year than what we received last year. We will as always continue to monitor the amounts received for the PLF. Patron Fines and Fees collected in June are more than what we received last year. This makes sense as last year we were closed for the month. We expect to see some increases in fines and fees as customer visits increase and we begin to process more passports. We had several items we had for sale on GovDeals that closed during the month. We sold some computer equipment, one of our older maintenance trucks and a forklift we no longer used. Those sales put us over in that particular line item for the year. We will make a budget adjustment later in the year. For Refunds and Reimbursements we received a substantial amount back from the State of Ohio for a large credit balance we were carrying for the payments we made last year for unemployment. Much of this credit was paid to them when we were using the Shared Work Ohio program. It took several months for the state unemployment office to credit our account back with those payments. They would not credit our account back until they received the credits back from the Federal government as part of the CARES Act funds. We needed to request the credit back and it took several months for them to reimburse the funds back to us.

Expenses The Salaries and Benefits accounts are within budget overall. The Insurance Benefits is now within budget. We were showing a little over budget because at the beginning of the year we fund all the HSA accounts with the portion the Library pays. Library Materials overall show an expenditure of over 59% spent. This is because of the larger expenditures in the month of January. January is typically a large buying month for both categories. We have also encumbered funds well into the year to cover best sellers as well as paying for half a year’s worth of Prime Picks at $500,000 and we are currently spending additional funds on electronic materials over what we spent last year. 30 Many of the other expense accounts show either a high percentage or 100% spent. This would account for standing order encumbrances.

Investments We purchased one piece of commercial paper from JP Morgan Securities with a yield of 1.18% and maturing in February of 2022.

Transfers There were two transfers for the month. A transfer from the General Fund to MyCom of $10,833.37 for a library match per the grant agreement and a transfer to Adult Education Services – ASPIRE of $248,815.60 which is also a library match. 31 CUYAHOGA COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY General Fund REVENUE Fiscal 2021 -June 50% of Year Acct.
