and the issues affecting you and

your neighbors.

Okay, everybody, we'll um start the meeting.

Um welcome to the May meeting of the Fitchburg Library Board.

Uh 523, I guess, or 533.

Um I don't think we have anything for public appearances.

Uh

we do not.

So approval of the minutes for the April meeting.

Um

we

can have a motion to approve those minutes.

I'll make the motion.

All right.

Any uh questions, corrections, discussion of any kind.

I

think everything was okay.

We will uh ask then for uh a vote for approval of the minutes.

Uh all in favor say aye.

All right.

And then the financial report, Wendy.

Yes.

So let's go ahead and have a motion to approve.

A motion to approve the financial reports for uh February, the financial register for February and the financial order

for February, please.

So

moved.

I

make a motion.

Okay.

And uh

all right.

So a few things I wanted to go over on the register.

You'll see in account 240, we've got an account uh uh pump repair.

Um unfortunately this was the really inexpensive one and not the expensive one, so that'll still be coming.

Um but that is all part of the shutdown that we had back in November that sort of bled over into this year.

Um I also wanted to point out in account 355.

We've got a couple of purchases there.

One is for book carts for almost 4,000.

That is money that we carried over from last year's budget because we ordered these in October and they did not arrive by the end of the

year.

Um, so and then computers.

This is early for us.

We generally don't uh order computers early, but we got a heads up from um our tech guy at the system that said um one of the companies that makes RAM has shut down.

And so RAM is getting um increasingly hard to find and expensive.

Um

so he had tipped us off to order as early as we could.
