Information Items a. 2026 Design Award Recipient – Special Recognition in Community Impact by AIA Wisconsin: Way is happy to announce OPN Architects was selected for the honor of Special Recognition in Community Impact by AIA Wisconsin for our Library Project! b. Library Director’s Report: Way’s highlights of her report: Dominique Moyer started as our Library Page on 8/31. This position was open due to a Library Page being promoted to Circulation Library Assistant. Our LTE Pages for the summer, Leona and Sophia, have completed their time and will stay on as substitutes when extra Page help is needed. Monica completed her Summer LTE Circulation Library Assistant term on 8/31 and has decided not to continue as a CLA substitute. We are working closely with Public Works staff to fill the Custodian position. Dr. Paster sponsored fun and colorful Lego artwork for the Creative Space. Special thanks to Laura and Dave Dewey for installing it with care! Work on the parking lot issue was completed September 1. Way wants to sincerely thank Lauren, Nick, and the outstanding Public Works crew for their hard work taking the lead on making sure this was addressed correctly. Their team did the curbing, asphalt, and restriping of our lot! The intersection of Hwy CC and Alpine Pkwy construction project is nearly finished and is expected to be reopened soon. c. Upcoming Library Events: Way discussed a few of the many September events coming up – the 6th Annual Monarch Festival will be 9/12 and is a sponsored event with the Library and the Oregon Nature Alliance; there will be a Storybook Music Project with the Utka Emsemble on 9/25; our popular Teen Late Night is scheduled for 9/18; Today is the last day to view Paul Morrison’s wonderful art display in the Community Room where there is also a Community Coat Drive happening today. d. Monthly Statistics Report: The Monthly Statistics Report will be available at a later time. e. South Central Library System 2025 at a Glance: The 54 public libraries that make up the South Central Library System serving over 900,000 residents in 7 counties had almost 8 million total c irculation transactions in 2025! There were over 5 million library visits and over 570,000 patrons attended the 23,153 programs offered! f. Board Continuing Education: Trustee Essential #6: Evaluating the Director (Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction): Informational item for review only. No action needed. g. Committee Reports i. Gazebo/Outdoor Structure Committee: Nelson reported a potential project budget is available and the information will be communicated with the donor. ii. Personnel Committee • Annual Library Director Evaluation: Goplin stated the Director Review Surveys were made available to library staff this week and the Director Review Surveys for the Board to complete will be sent out soon. The deadline for all of the surveys to be completed is the end of September. The Committee will meet in October and report back to the Board in November. h. Communications i. Village Board announcements: McDaniel said the Hwy CC and Alpine Pkwy intersection construction project had an approved deadline extension that expired today. Because the project is not yet completed, there will be a penalty for the contractor every day the intersection remains closed. McDaniel is hopeful this disincentive is motivation for the contractor to complete the project quickly. ii. School District announcements: Anderson noted that school started this week! The 3-year-old screening at the end of August was held at the library. Anderson said it was a great space for the event with all of the different spaces and study room areas. It was also an opportunity for the families in the district to visit the library! Anderson wanted to express her gratitude to the library staff for the event! 8. Discussion and possible action items a. 2027 Library Budget Request (if updates available): No updates are available at this time. b. Library Branded Items: The library has seen a recent increase in patron interest for library-branded clothing and merchandise such as t-shirts, hoodies, and tote bags. There are several ways other libraries successfully manage this from merchandise sales for fundraising initiatives to print-on-demand websites where patrons order directly, eliminating the need for library staff to handle financial transactions. Over the years, Friends of the Library generously partnered with the library to make select Oregon Public Library clothing items available to staff so that they may wear branded clothing while working at the library or at library events. Historically, this was limited to staff only and staff were instructed to only wear the attire during their work shifts, so staff customarily returned these items once their employment ended. This new opportunity would be very similar to someone purchasing and wearing attire for a favorite school or sports team, with the added benefit of providing increased awareness and support for the library. The Board was very enthusiastic about this potential opportunity! Bonsett-Veal made the Motion to Authorize permission for Oregon Public Library clothing and/or merchandise to be developed and made available for purchase by the general public and to allow staff to wear OPL without any restrictions. Anderson seconded. Motion carried 7-0. 9. Closing and Future Agendas a. Request for future agenda items: none. b. Next meeting: Wednesday, October 14, 2026 at 5:15 PM 10. Adjournment: Shtaida made the Motion to Adjourn at 5:44pm. Reese seconded. Motion carried 7-0.

Highlights: We are thrilled to welcome Tim Humberg as our new Custodian. His first day was 9/28. Tim will spend most of his time at the library along with about 5 hours/week cleaning Village Hall. Due to a short overlap with the cleaning service, Tim has already been able to tackle a variety of maintenance projects! • Transition Thank Yous! We sincerely appreciate the work of Humberto Arias and the Environment Control Team for keeping our library clean while this position was being filled. Special thanks to Laura Dewey for all her hard work and attention to detail in ensuring a smooth transition and to Eric Zwaska, Nick Haak, Lauren Striegl, Ruti Trace, Tricia Nicoll, and Peggy Haag for their important contributions to the process. Thanks to our library team who also chipped in by helping when they saw that things needed attention. • New Software: o There is a pilot project to test a desktop version of the ILS software as a solution to address some pervasive ongoing response time issues. 10 libraries are piloting this and feedback has been very good. Oregon Public Library started using this desktop version on two workst ations that process a high volume of returns and have found it to significantly improve efficiency, response time, and workflow! o We are now using electronic ordering thanks to the hard work of Laura in getting this setup. This will improve the efficiency of our ordering process. • Summer Library Program: Our summer library program was a wonderful success with participants of all ages engaging in our reading program and attending our library programs. o Total Registrations for all four reading programs = 1,172  Read to Me: 234  Children: 442  Teen: 193  Adult: 225 • National Friends of the Library Week Oct. 18-24, 2026: Join me in celebrating the wonderful work of our Friends of the Library group.

Village Highlights: • I ntersection Reopened! The intersection of Hwy CC and Alpine Pkwy reopened on 9/24!

Library Bill of Rights The American Library Association affirms that all libraries are forums for information and ideas, and that the following basic policies should guide their services. I. Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation. II. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval. III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment. IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas. V. A person’s right to use a library should not be denied or abridged because of origin, age, background, or views. VI. Libraries which make exhibit spaces and meeting rooms available to the public they serve should make such facilities available on an equitable basis, regardless of the beliefs or affiliations of individuals or groups requesting their use. VII. All people, regardless of origin, age, background, or views, possess a right to privacy and confidentiality in their library use. Libraries should advocate for, educate about, and protect people’s privacy, safeguarding all library use data, including personally identifiable information. Adopted June 19, 1939, by the ALA Council; amended October 14, 1944; June 18, 1948; February 2, 1961; June 27, 1967; January 23, 1980; January 29, 2019. Inclusion of “age” reaffirmed January 23, 1996.

Assistant Director of Public Works Nick Haak has surveyed the parks and developed a tree removal plan, shown as Figure 1 on the following page. Areas outlined in pink below are heavily populated by volunteer tree overgrowth, including maple, poplar, and willow. These would be primary targets for removal. The area outlined in black, centered on Lerner Park, would see only spot removals of volunteer trees. The majority of trees targeted for removal are invasive species including poplar, willow, maple, buckthorn and/or honeysuckle. Removal of these plants is the first step in the multi-project West Side Conservation Parks Improvements effort scoped in the West Side Conservation Parks Master Plan, and is critical to providing native species in this park area the chance to thrive. „ÍČô и ͑ Figure 1.

Amend Position Description for Circulation Library Assistant Position Alicia Fisher, Circulation Supervisor, and I have worked together to review and update the Circulation Library Assistant position description. Ensuring a position description accurately reflects the work is important for employee recruitment, retention, and compensation. With the move to the new library 2 ½ years ago and the changes in ILS software, there have been a wide variety of changes in the way that the library operates and what is expected of staff. We have been fortunate to have a very talented and customer-focused team of individuals in this position! Please find both the existing position description and the proposed updated position description enclosed. The most substantive changes are: • Change in “Education and Experience” to specify education of “two or more years of study at an accredited college, university, or technical school,” and adding that customer service experience is preferred. • Various changes to duties and equipment used that reflect current practices in our new library and with our new ILS. • Incorporation of “Competencies” section reflecting standard language provide by the Village Administrator and used within other Village position descriptions and removal of former sections that are no longer needed with this addition. • Incorporation of “Equal Opportunity Statement”, “Other Duties” and “Signatures” section consistent with other new Village position descriptions (pg. 4). • Formatting changes to improve accessibility. Recommended Motion: To approve the updated position description for the Circulation Library Assistant Position. 7b Agreement for Cintas Fire Protection for Annual Inspection of Emergency Exit Lights and Extinguishers Annual inspection of fire extinguishers by a certified professional is required. The enclosed proposal is for Cintas to provide the annual inspection of fire extinguishers and emergency exit light testing/maintenance for 2027. We have this same agreement in place for 2026 and have been pleased with the service provided by Cintas. Recommended Motion: To approve the enclosed Fire Protection Services Agreement with Cintas Fire Protection to complete the required annual fire extinguisher inspection and annual emergency/exit light maintenance. 7c. 2027 Library Budget Request At their October 5 meeting, the Village Board began reviewing the Village’s operational budget needs for 2027. The draft budget presented by Village Administrator Martin Shanks includes the same budget numbers that were approved by the Library Board as part of the Library’s 2027 budget request. At present, the current draft of the budget is showing the Village contributing 50% of the cost of the Circulation Library Assistant position for 2027. Open enrollment is taking place this month and the budget numbers will be updated upon completion of that period and pending other considerations. Select pages from the Village Board packet from 10/05/2026 summarizing the library’s 2027 budget request for the Village Board is enclosed for your information; this was presented in the context of a draft budget for all Village operating costs. This is subject to change as the Village continues through the budget process.

From Village Board Packet 10/05/2026 Oregon Public Library Funds (Funds 202 and 203) In Wisconsin, libraries and library boards have unique powers and authorities under state law. When a public library is established by a local govern ment, the local government must establish a library board to administer it. The Library Board exercises quasi-independence from the Village Board. For example, once appropriated by the Village Board through the budget, the library board has excl usive control over its expenditures; library boards are also considered a special trustee of any gifts or donations made to the library and have exclusive control over them; library boards also have exclusiv e control over all lands, buildings, or other property given to, or otherwise acquired or leased by, the lo cal government for library purposes; and the library board has exclusive control over the hiring, firing, and fixi ng of wages of library employees. The Library Director reports directly to the Library Board and not the Village Board or Village Administrator. While the Village Board has limited authority over the administra tion of the library, it does retain control of approving budgets and appropriating property tax levy, therefore it is always advisable for library boards and governing bodies to work cooperatively, balancing the interests of the library and community. Library Fund (Fund 202) This fund is set up to account for irregular, non- operating revenues and expenditure related to the provision of library services. For example, donations or grants for specific expenditures, such as one-time supplies or equipment purchases. The fund has also been used to account for the revenues and expenses related to the construction of the new library and other major projects. 2027 Budget Notes No notable activity.

The library’s operational revenues primarily include property taxes and intergovernmental revenues. Smaller revenue sources include charges for certain services, and investment income from funds the library has on hand. Expenditures included staff salaries, benefits, professional development and training costs; materials, supplies, and services offered by the library such as books, audio / video materials, subscriptions, and programs; and the library’s portion of liability insurance premium costs. Expenditures also include the maintenance and costs associated with t he library building and grounds, including property insurance premiums, utility costs, repair and maintenance, supplies, and employee costs. 2027 Budget Notes - Employees follow the Village’s compensation plan and have been adjusted based upon Village Board budgetary direction. Benefit costs have been adjusted per plan policies. - The budget accounts for covering 50% of a new part-time Circulation L ibrary Assistant position (20 hours / week). The remaining 50% will be covered by fund balance the Library has available. The position was identified as a priority in the Village Board’s 2026-2028 Strategic Plan. - Non-personnel operational costs for library services are expected to remain largely flat with some minor changes to reflect increases in costs. - The property tax contribution to the library is $32,444 or 2.76% less than 2026. This is due to a larger increase in intergovernmental revenues described below. - Overall, the library operating is increasing 5.92% in costs or $90,883. Over 80% of the increase is related to personnel costs. Note on Intergovernmental Revenues Dane County collects library taxes in communities that do not maintain their own public libraries and uses that revenue to compensate municipal libraries for serving those residents. For the Oregon Public Library, this funding helps offset the cost of providing services to residents who live outside the Village. Dane County’s reimbursement includes operating and facility component s. The operating reimbursement considers the library’s operating expenditures and borrowing by r esidents of Dane County communities without libraries. It also accounts for borrowing between communitie s that maintain libraries: Oregon receives credit for serving residents of those communities, with an offset for Village residents who borrow materials from other Dane County libraries. The facility reimbursem ent helps offset the cost of providing library space through a formula that considers the County’s es tablished cost per square foot, total library square footage countywide, and Oregon’s share of borrowing by residents of communities without libraries. Separately, the Library County Reimbursement revenue account records payments from adjacent counties under Wisconsin Statute § 43.12. These payments compensate the Ore gon Public Library for serving residents of those counties who live in communities without the ir own public libraries. Reimbursement is calculated using eligible operating expenditures, excluding ca pital costs, and circulation data. Payments received in 2027 reflect services provided in 2025 and include reimbursem ent from Columbia, Dodge, Green, Iowa, Rock, and Sauk counties. Revenue source 2025 2026 2027 Increase, 2025–2026 In crease, 2026–2027 Dane County reimbursement $245,999 $305,751 $407,596 $59,752 (24.3%) $101,845 (33.3%) Adjacent-county reimbursement $27,599 $33,63 $42,777 $6,030 (21.8%) $9,147 (27.2%) Combined revenue $273,598 $339,38 $450,373 $65,782 (24.0%) $110,992 (32.7%) These increases reflect the opening of the new library in 2024, which provided a substantially larger building and attracted greater demand for library services. The larger fa cility, increased circulation, and associated operating costs affect the factors used to calculate reimbursement. Because the calculations rely on prior-year data, these changes are reflected in reimbursement revenues over time. By 2027, combined reimbursement revenue will reach $450,373, an increas e of $176,774.28, or 64.6%, over 2025.
