What agenda items are covered during the opening roll call and consent calendar approval?
Okay, it is six or three PM and I'll call the Do the roll call for the board of library trustees meeting. Um See Vice Chair Tory Faroos? Uh trust you Wynn. Yeah. Trust you Rikosa. Yeah. Trust you, Mohammed. Here. And Turbin's also here, so we have full Tenants in our value? Okay, first item on the agenda is the consent calendar. Uh the consent calendar is approved in one motion. Um Do we have a Motion to approve the sentence. I have a motion to approve the consent calendar. Well I have I had a comment. Well comment okay, we can bullet for discussion. So for the uh the first Uh minutes the meeting was cancelled, so shouldn't uh the rest of the contents of the minutes be struck? Uh once the uh item that says the meeting was cancelled, the rest of the stuff never occurred.
So But that should be canceled, removed from the minutes. Um we checked with the clerk's office before producing them, but we can check again and bring that back for that. I believe you have to
just continue. I mean you share the rest of the agenda as as it was posted, but there's no minutes attached to it because there's no action that was taken.
But that's not but there's no comment to that effect. And then the meet the indicated to just put meeting cancelled at the top. Well I I think the comment you're at is that um there is there is a minute that shows that the attendance President Hatsup. I don't know. I think that's a major. Tell you about. I see what it does that. Just that it's just that it has the um Present absence and roll call information? No, after that it says public presentations, general business, rec all the items generally recommendations, staff report, trustees report, all that's still listed. None of that occurred. I I guess I guess the question is I guess is this what the guidelines from the city clerk's office is? Oh we Um, we checked with the clerk's office, but we can go back and check following the meeting and then bring that back next time to have the meeting minutes approved at the next meeting if you prefer.
Okay. Yeah, I just thought it was strange having it in there, but But can we separate is it possible to separate out the two items so we need so it's just or that everybody twelve cancelled meeting, not the other meeting. And they're listed together as one item, so that's why I'm asking. You can Basically make a motion to approve one of the minutes and then I mean we've continued the minutes for the next one to the next meeting.
Why are the meeting minutes being questioned and what changes are proposed for the cancelled meeting entry?
And that's what like happening. Or alternatively you could just direct staff to maybe make a notation on the canceled meetings to make it clear that items listed below. the intended agenda, but that ultimately no meeting was held on those items, no meeting and no minutes. So Whatever the board could like to do.
I don't know. I would just clarify to add a though. But but we want to give him a chance to see it again. So
Yes, we can do the approval separately. motion to then approve um the meeting minutes for february twelfth and continue the meeting minutes for february second um with annotations. So move. Two lines unique. Second, do we need a second or is it just one? Okay. I guess all in favor of the motion say aye. Yeah. That that passes. I guess we'll prove their twelfth and then Two minute seconds to Oh no. Okay. Um first item of business is public presentation not business, uh public presentations. And so public presentations is an opportunity for members to address the board on items not otherwise on the agenda. Do we have anyone members of the public who'd like to address the board?
Why I was distracted.
Usually do we have time uh we'd like to address the one?
Yes.
Okay.
I have a whole list of things actually. Yeah. So first of all, I'd like to um just update the board on changes that we're making to book sales. Sorry, just briefly. And Joanne David, executive director of the Santa Clara City Library Foundation and Friends.
Glenn asked if maybe she might want to comment.
Yeah, just to make sure you're heard. I'm just a little worried about you being back there.
Okay, you want me to start over again?
