  • Hawaii State Public Library System Have Been Made by a Team of Very Dedicated Staff, and I Am Blessed to Work with Them to Support Our Communities
    DAVID Y. IGE CATHERINE PAYNE GOVERNOR CHAIRPERSON STATE OF HAWAI‘I BOARD OF EDUCATION P.O. BOX 2360 HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I 96804 June 4, 2020 TO: Board of Education FROM: Catherine Payne Chairperson, Board of Education AGENDA ITEM: Board Action on State Librarian’s evaluation for 2019-2020 School Year: end-of-year evaluation The Board of Education’s (“Board”) state librarian evaluation process, revised on August 15, 2019,1 includes an end-of-year final evaluation of the state librarian’s performance on predetermined professional standards based on the American Library Association’s description of required skills for library directors and multiple public library director evaluations from across the country and annual state librarian priorities. The state librarian is to provide the Board with a self-assessment along with supporting documents and evidence to help inform its evaluation. State Librarian Stacey Aldrich’s materials related to the end-of-year self-assessment are attached as Exhibit A. The evaluation process envisions the Board conducting its end-of-year evaluation of the state librarian in executive session, taking action on the assessments in public, and publishing its ratings and comments on its website. However, on June 27, 2019, the Hawaii Supreme Court issued an opinion regarding discussion of personnel matters in executive session.2 Based on this opinion, the discussion of the state librarian’s performance should occur in public because there is no clear, legitimate privacy interest in highly personal and intimate information, as described in the opinion. Because the entire discussion will occur in public, it is more appropriate for the official meeting minutes to serve as the record of the evaluation rather than a separate summary document.

Who could have predicted this horrific loss of human life and the utter worldwide disruption to our lives? Throughout these challenging times, there have been stories of heroism at every level – from front line workers giving their all to combat the spread of this disease to voices of children sharing their hope in the face of tragedy. In our last NOTAM, we considered how museums and other institutions might come together to shed some light and perhaps pioneer alternate forms of engagement and learning. After all, there is no set of instructions on how we move forward. “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” — Margaret Mead We hope our virtual and in-person programs have reduced the isolation many experience daily. In the midst of these trying times, Hawaii hosted our nation’s 75th WWII Commemoration, celebrating the hope and peace that followed the end of this global conflict.
