Board meetings and strategic plans from Mid-Continent Public Library District
The meeting included reports from the building committee regarding the new headquarters facility in downtown Independence and the technology committee on the transition to maker services following a feasibility study. Financial reports were presented covering current cash positions, property tax revenue, and the annual audit schedule. The Board conducted the election of employer and employee representatives for the Missouri Local Government Employees Retirement System and formally established the 2026 property tax levy rate for general operating purposes.
The committee reviewed the findings of a feasibility study on establishing maker services within the library system. Key discussion topics included insights gathered from visits and interviews with other library systems regarding their maker spaces, specifically focusing on the necessity of dedicated staff, the importance of proper facility ventilation, and the high demand for specific equipment like sewing machines and garment printers. The committee also evaluated the library's existing resources and potential next steps for growing maker services sustainably, rather than simply investing in a single room with equipment.
