Page 5 of 56 Page 6 of 56 Page 7 of 56 Page 8 of 56 Page 9 of 56 1595 Allouez Avenue · Suite 4 · Green Bay, Wisconsin 54311 (920) 448 - 4410 · www.nicoletlibraries.org March 12, 2026 President Morgan Rusnak Door County Library Dear Library Board President and fellow board members, This memo provides guidance on the appropriate use and management of closed session meetings for the library board. It also addresses several areas where the library’s current practices give the appearance of being misaligned with Wisconsin law or established public library governance standards. The intent of this communication is to reinforce good governance practices, ensure compliance with state law, and support the board in maintaining transparency and public trust. Wisconsin’s Open Meetings Law requires that all public library board meetings be open to the public unless a specific statutory exemption applies. Closed sessions are allowed only for narrowly defined purposes—such as personnel evaluations, litigation strategy, contract or real estate negotiations, or other matters where public discussion would compromise the library’s legal or financial interests. Closed sessions may not be used for convenience, to avoid scrutiny, or to discuss topics that are merely uncomfortable. Before entering closed session, the board must: • Announce the statutory exemption being used • Provide a notice that describes the specific nature of the business to be discussed • Vote in open session to convene in closed session • Limit discussion strictly to the stated purpose The Wisconsin Department of Justice advises that closed session notices be as specific as possible without undermining the confidentiality of the discussion. Reciting the statute alone is insufficient. The library board must evaluate whether the topic clearly fits within a statutory exemption and whether public discussion would harm the library’s legal, financial, or personnel interests. If the matter does not meet these criteria, the meeting must remain open. When in doubt, the safer course is an open meeting. Once in closed session, the library board controls who may remain. Only individuals whose presence is necessary to the discussion should attend—typically trustees, the library director (when relevant), and legal counsel. Staff, county personnel, or outside parties may be Page 10 of 56 1595 Allouez Avenue · Suite 4 · Green Bay, Wisconsin 54311 (920) 448 - 4410 · www.nicoletlibraries.org included only when essential to the specific matter. The board president is responsible for managing attendance and ensuring no unauthorized individuals are present. Under Chapter 43, the library board—not the county, individual trustees, or library staff— holds exclusive authority over library policy, the budget once appropriated, and the hiring, supervision, and dismissal of the library director. Daily operations are delegated to the director, not other library or county personnel. Trustees must avoid directing staff or engaging in operational decision‑making, as doing so violates statutory boundaries, creates liability risks, and undermines organizational stability. The annual evaluation of the library director is a core library board responsibility. Best practices require that the review be: • Conducted by the full board or a designated committee, not outside persons or entities • Based on clear, pre‑established expectations and measurable goals • Documented in writing and discussed professionally and confidentially • Focused on job performance, not personal or political disagreements The evaluation must occur in a properly noticed meeting. If held in closed session, the board must cite the appropriate exemption and limit discussion accordingly. Informal reviews, individual trustee involvement, or discussions outside a legally noticed meeting constitute non‑compliance. Statute mandates that library employee reviews, other than that of the director, be conducted by the library director with library staff, board, and outside personnel serving in an advisory role upon request. Failure to follow statutory requirements and governance standards can result in open meetings violations, improper personnel actions, staff grievances, legal claims, strained relationships, loss of system support, and erosion of public trust. Persistent non‑compliance may jeopardize funding and expose the board to legal scrutiny. The following are recommendations for the library board at the current time: • Reaffirm statutory governance roles. Operate consistently within the authority granted under Chapter 43. Trustees should focus on governance and policy; the director should manage daily operations and library staff. • Strengthen compliance with open meetings law. Use closed sessions only when a statutory exemption applies. Provide specific notice, vote properly, and restrict attendance to essential participants. • Implement a formal director evaluation process. Adopt a structured annual review based on clear expectations and documented goals. Conduct evaluations only in properly noticed meetings and only by the board or a designated committee of the board. Page 11 of 56 1595 Allouez Avenue · Suite 4 · Green Bay, Wisconsin 54311 (920) 448 - 4410 · www.nicoletlibraries.org • Address non‑compliance concerns immediately. Correct any deviations from statutory requirements or governance standards promptly to avoid legal, operational, or reputational consequences and to avoid loss of Nicolet Library System services and support. • Seek advisory support when needed. An advisor may assist the board during closed sessions or governance discussions to ensure compliance and support effective decision‑making. I am committed to assisting the board in maintaining full compliance. I am available to attend meetings, participate in closed sessions, advise on governance practices, provide resources, support the development of a compliant evaluation process, and help clarify statutory responsibilities. My role is to support the board’s success and ensure the library operates within the legal and ethical framework required of a Wisconsin public library. Please feel free to contact me via email or phone if you would like to discuss this further. In the interest of avoiding open meetings violations, such as a walking quorum, please do not reach out as a full board or subset of the board, but contact me individually.

John and I (and Tom from the bar.....) want to thank you for providing such a fun evening. It was wonderful all the way around....food, drinks, questions, camaraderie, meeting Sean, prizes......and BUTT stuff!!! A huge round of applause for all you did to get it organized and making such a fun event. Loved every minute of it. Jane/John Branch Library Locations Reports Baileys Harbor- Mary Sawyer February was a dubious month at the Baileys Harbor Library. On the 9th our heating was shut off, and space heaters were installed; these will be in use until the weather turns or the Geothermal installation is complete. On the 11th the sheriff’s department was summoned to the library (for the first time according to their information) to escort a banned patron from the premises. And icy weather forced us to reschedule our ceramics class on the 20th. Despite everything to come, our first event of the month, Trivia Night at The Cleat, was a successful foray into a book club trivia night hybrid meeting. We had 14 people in attendance who enjoyed spirited competition, delicious food, and fun prizes. Below is an email from a patron who was particularly happy to be a part of the event. Egg Harbor- Dixie Jorns February was a month with a lot of things going on at the library in Egg Harbor. Many of the usual events that happen on a regular basis continued to draw people in. An add-on to our regular offerings for this month has been the in-house tax help from AARP. Skilled volunteers have been aiding folks in the community with tax preparation on Mondays by appointment and will continue to do so through March. Page 18 of 56 Director’s Report Page 4 of 12 The Maker Space activity for the month was Alcohol Inks. Somewhere between forty and fifty people came to craft tiles and jewelry items using this process. The Maker Space also hosted an adult Craft Night at the end of the month that highlights our focused project for the upcoming month. Fifteen people came out on yet another snowy, blustery night to make soy candles. Silent Book Club of Door County has been a quiet success. Twelve people came to our February event, and we again had a very relaxed and enjoyable evening. We did not host a movie this month due to the many scheduled Tuesday evening programs. “Oh Buoy!” Ship Talk was an updated version of a program that we did last year. There were 39 people that came out to learn about what happens at the Sturgeon Bay shipyard and learn more about the Cobia submarine that was there for maintenance and repair recently. The Bethany Barton Presents! event was not as well attended as I had hoped, but 24 kids and parents were totally enthralled with this great program. It was fun to see the kids having such a great time (while learning!) The Between the Pages Book Club selection for February was The Book Club for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick. Fourteen members came to the discussion and all pretty much agreed that this was a good February read. Everyone enjoyed this one! In anticipation of Spring, the volunteers caring for the Seed Library were here for a seed packing party. Six people turned out to get our supplies ready for area gardens. Everything is now set up and ready to go. We are fortunate and grateful to have local people taking care of this for us and our patrons. Page 19 of 56 Director’s Report Page 5 of 12 Ephraim- Suzanne Ihrig Ephraim Book Club met on February 3rd and, instead of discussing a work of fiction as is their wont, each member chose a work of non- fiction to present to the group and spark discussions. Despite some initial grumbling, the eleven book club members who attended really enjoyed it. The photo to the left is some of the book club members cleaning up after and getting in a few last words. We also started a “Homeschool Kids Book Club” here at the Ephraim Library on February 5th. This book club will run each Thursday in February and March, and the kids will break down and discuss two books from James Patterson’s Treasure Hunters series. The parents are helping the kids with the discussion questions, and I am supplying floor cushions and snacks. And, despite the name, this book club is open to all. We held a Door County Reads event on February 6th, when Karen Eckert of Owl Arts facilitated a pottery class where participants made clay spoon rests inspired by the themes of The Briar Club by Kate Quinn. We had 17 (!) participants (plus a waitlist of 9), which meant we had to rent out the Ephraim Village Hall to accommodate everyone. It was great having an event so enjoyed by all ages and we are looking forward to working with Karen on future programs. Page 20 of 56 Director’s Report Page 6 of 12 Fish Creek- Elisha Adelman Quiet around here, but we’re still doing a lot this month. We’ve been visiting the Northern Door Children’s Center to hold a library special for the 4K class (see pic below). This time, they learned how to take care of books, and they made their own books that will go in their library. Every lesson includes reading a book together about books and libraries. The kids seem to be really enjoying it, and we’re having a great time getting to know them. I’ve been going monthly, and I’ve been twice so far. We’ll do six total visits, and on their last one, they’ll come to the Fish Creek Library which I’m excited about! We held our first open craft night where attendees can bring their own projects or use our supplies to make something. Everyone who came wanted to make a junk journal, so I made up a few blank journals for them to fill in, and everyone had a great time. This month we also had our DCR book club where folks exchanged cookbooks and nibbled on snacks while discussing The Briar Club. We also held a 1950s dance + lessons that was fun for everybody. Page 21 of 56 Director’s Report Page 7 of 12 Forestville- Jennifer Bacall February was a calm month for us in Forestville. We continued to have robust story times and were joined on two Fridays by some kindergarteners from Southern Door who had the days off. We ended the month on letter S and number 19. Our Homeschool Workshop was a free paint session. Students were encouraged to sketch out what they wanted to paint and then were provided with canvases that they could create their masterpieces on. We welcomed back Owl Arts Pottery, who hosted our Adult Craft Night, making spoon rests. Our book club discussed Stella Bain by Anita Shreve. We were given some generous donation to our food pantry, which is now bursting with cereal, fruit, canned foods and more. Sister Bay/ Liberty Grove - Christina Johnson N/A Page 22 of 56 Director’s Report Page 8 of 12 Sturgeon Bay Adult Department – Laura Kayacan Tuesday, February 3 The book for the Multicultural Book Club in February was “The Briar Club” by Kate Quinn, part of Door County Reads 2026. Most members attended the talk by the author and appreciated the choice of book. The group discussed the plot twists at the end of the book that came as a surprise to many. Thursday, February 5 Genealogy Club met as usual with a number in attendance on Zoom. I discussed old Sturgeon Bay phone books. For example, some of the phone books indicate street names and intersections and list people who lived at specific house numbers. Then if you look up the name in the alphabetical part of the directory, it lists their profession, and in one case it mentioned a woman’s name and that she was a widow of Fred. Interesting clues. Friday, February 6 The Winter Gardening program was canceled because of the health of the presenter. The Seed Swap was held as planned and attracted a good number of visitors. It’s clear that people are anxious to plan for the next season and seeds. I observe many visitors stopping to check the main seed drawers in the case downstairs. The official opening is March 16 and thanks to the hard work of the Seed Library volunteers, there are many seeds in the basement that will be available in that case for the kickoff. Wednesday, February 11 Deb Anderson from the Wisconsin State Historical Society Archives housed at UWGB came and talked about what the Archives can do for you and how they can help many kinds of research. She had photos of the archives and was a really engaging speaker. This program was part of Door County Reads since one of the characters in The Briar Club worked at the National Archives. Among other things, she described how the various regional branches of the Archives can exchange information and items with each other. If you need a book from the main branch in Madison, it can be sent to Green Bay. Page 23 of 56 Director’s Report Page 9 of 12 Thursday, February 12 For another Door County Reads program, Larry Desotell presented a talk on former Wisconsin senator Joseph McCarthy and his influence on the country in the 1950’s, known as McCarthyism. “The Briar Club” was set in this time and one of the main characters is a Russian spy, so McCarthy’s influence was at the background of the book’s setting. Larry is a fine history speaker, former history teacher, and has done over 50 programs for Learning in Retirement. We have been fortunate to have him do programs at the library as well. Thursday February 12 and 26 “Fish Tales 2026” began at Crossroads with the first program in the series on “Management of the Green Bay Walleye Fishery, ” a talk by Dr. Jason Breeggemann, Fisheries Biologist WDNR. The second program in the series was “How Did Pacific Salmon Find Their Way to Door County?” by Lee Kernen, Retired, WDNR Director Bureau of Fisheries Management. These programs are available on Zoom through Door County Library, and the videos are available later on the library YouTube channel. There is a large group in the area who love these fish programs, and we always have a good attendance in-person and online. Wednesday, February 18 The Play Reading Club discussion this month was “Dog Mom” by Tate Hanyok. This play was part of the Seven Devils New Play Foundry which has developed more than “250 new plays, by Pulitzer Prize-winners, emerging writers, high school students and everything in between, through a variety of programs aimed at supporting and empowering playwrights to do their best work free from the pressures and concerns of full production. ” Jacob Janssen of TAP who leads the Play Reading Group discussion works with Seven Devils and as a result we had the playwright join us on Zoom for our meeting! This is one of the best, most loved plays we have read in the group, and we are happy to hear TAP will do a fun production in the future. Wednesday, February 25 and 26 I attended 2 meetings where I am part of programming outreach – the Heritage Alliance of Door County, which is planning Door County History Week in June, and a meeting of the Sandy Brown Award Committee. The library has a representative on that committee as the Door County Reads Committee won the Sandy Brown Award for the 2025 event series around TJ Klune’s “House in the Cerulean Sea” last year. Page 24 of 56 Director’s Report Page 10 of 12 Sturgeon Bay Children’s Department - Beth Lokken February featured the partnership with the School Districts: author Bethany Barton. On Saturday February 14th, she did the program she brought to the schools at Egg Harbor at 10am and at Sturgeon Bay at 3pm. The turnout in Egg Harbor was enthusiastic families. One mom was so delighted that she went out to Novel Bay Booksellers and bought copies of every one of Bethany's books, then turned up early to get them signed in Sturgeon Bay. That Saturday (Valentines Day) was very busy, so in anticipation of a low turnout, we were set to record her both at 3 in the Sturgeon Bay Library and for her evening Dopamind parents program at Crossroads. While the turnout was very small in person, people did watch virtually, and those recordings have been watched many times already. We asked Bethany for an additional month to make the recordings available, and she very graciously said yes. She very much wants people to enjoy the presentations! If you would like to see them, they are available on the Door County Library YouTube page at these links: https://youtu.be/AGU8lsXdpYQ for the book presentation and https://youtu.be/hNM0mH2IMIs for the Dopamind Parents presentation. For lots of interesting extras, you should definitely check out her website https://www.bethanybarton.com/ Coming up in March, we are hosting the Griffon String Quartet on Saturday March 21st at 3pm, with what I call a "Literary Concert". We have held similar programs with them several times, and it always includes a mix of books, poetry, information and beautiful music on a theme; this time it's Nautical. I am attaching The Griffon's advertisement for this event, which they call Strings & Stories. Sturgeon Bay Circulation Department – Morgan Mann This past month we moved the shelves that previously held the Classics collection to the YA section. The YA graphic novels shifted in, after the fiction, thanks to the expanded space. The audiobooks shifted to the shelf that previously held the graphic novels, and the audiobook spinners were removed. We found a large table in basement storage, which matched the others in the area, and created another 4-top meeting space in the previous Classics location. Page 25 of 56 Director’s Report Page 11 of 12 Washington Island- Corinn Sevcik February was slightly slower compared to January, but our door count numbers continue to be up compared to 2025 with 130 more patrons visiting over last February. Our monthly Storytime & Crafts was held on Tuesday, February 3, and had 11 children and nine adults attend including quite a few grandmothers. The theme for February was Valentine's Day. Meghann read books on love and Valentine's Day, and the children made a Valentine's Day themed window decoration made out of tissue paper. The monthly Adult Book Club held on Thursday, February 26, had 10 patrons in attendance. We discussed "The Briar Club" by Kate Quinn. Because this was the Door County Reads event, all attendees received a cookbook titled "The Lake Michigan Cottage," which includes some recipes from Door County. This was a great fit since a main theme of the book was food, recipes, and how they brought people together. I also handed out packets, which had all the recipes with pictures from the book. On Monday, February 16, we held our second Lego Club of 2026. We had eight children and six adults attend. Swimming lessons at the local Rec Center, and a child's birthday party most likely led to lower numbers. Despite low numbers, everyone enjoyed making Lego creations. Kindergarten, 1st/2nd grade, and 3rd/4th grade classes are continuing to visit the library on a regular basis. All students are loving the new books we're getting in monthly. We had the 3rd grade class come over at the beginning of the month to work on a research project. The teacher provided the topics ahead of time, so I was able to obtain books from other libraries, and all students had enough books to use.

Review and Approve Volunteer Policy The Door County Library is in need of standardizing the use and recruitment of volunteers across locations. To that effect, the following volunteer policy has been drafted for approval. The tracking of regular volunteers has already been tested and implemented to insure the County of Door’s insurance coverage for volunteers is accurate. 23 March 2026 – Library Board Meeting Agenda Notes Page 49 of 56 DOOR COUNTY LIBRARY Policies & Procedures Subject: Volunteer Policy Effective Date: **** Source/Date: LIBRARY BOARD / **** Purpose The purpose of the Door County Library Volunteer Policy is to define the role and expectations of volunteers at the Door County Library (DCL). Definition A volunteer is defined as an individual who assists with work done at, or on behalf of, the Door County Library without promise, expectation, or receipt of compensation for services rendered on a regular basis. Compensation and Benefits Neither the County of Door nor DCL provides compensation or benefits to volunteers. Nothing in this policy or in the volunteer's service to DCL shall create a contract or employment relationship between the volunteer and the Library or the County of Door. Both the volunteer and the Library have the right to end the volunteer's association with the Library at any time. Responsibilities Upon the direction of the Library Director, or authorized supervisor, volunteers may assist Library staff with various tasks. Volunteers are recruited and assigned to augment library programs or service needs and do not substitute for paid staff members' roles and duties. Volunteers represent DCL; while involved in DCL activities volunteers are required to conform to the same rules and regulations as DCL staff, all policies, and procedures of the County of Door and DCL, and the DCL Rules of Conduct. Recruitment DCL encourages individuals and groups to volunteer their time and efforts in service to the Library. Volunteers shall be recruited without regard to any protected status. DCL cannot guarantee the placement of any person seeking to volunteer with the Library. Volunteer placement is based, but not limited to, the following:  Needs of the Library Page 50 of 56  Qualifications of volunteer applicants  Volunteer's availability and ability to commit to required work hours  Availability of supervisory staff Not every volunteer application may be accepted based on the above criteria. Youth Volunteers The Library welcomes volunteer applicants 14 years of age or older. Volunteers aged 17 and under must have written permission from a parent or guardian. Youth volunteers can earn Service Learning/Community Service hours per school district requirements. Application & Review Processes All Library volunteer applicants must complete a volunteer application form. Applicants will be interviewed by Library staff. If there are no suitable volunteer opportunities immediately available, application forms will be kept on file for six months. Applicants are called if an assignment is identified which matches their interests and qualifications. The Library may accept court-mandated community service workers at the discretion of the Library Director or authorized supervisor. Volunteers will be subject to a background check. Volunteer Work Assignments, Training, & Supervision Volunteers will not be scheduled until they have completed an Library orientation specific to the location(s) they are volunteering at, have been assigned a designated supervisor, and have reviewed all relevant Library and County policies and procedures, specifically concerning patron privacy. A volunteer will be scheduled for assignments by their designated supervisor. Volunteers must contact their supervisor before their assigned shift if they will be absent or tardy. A pattern of absences or tardiness may cause a volunteer to be excused from an assignment. Review of this Policy This policy will be reviewed on a regular basis. Any changes to this policy will be approved by the Door County Library Board. Associated procedures referenced here will be reviewed by library staff, changed in conjunc8on with this policy, and approved by the Library Director. Page 51 of 56 14.
