FROM: Sue Madorin, Library Director, and the Library Commission
BUDGET SOURCE/BUDGET IMPACT: None
RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move for passage of Resolution LY -R -1181, A Resolution
Authorizing And Directing The Oak Brook Public Library To Participate In The Non -
Resident Library Card Program From July 1, 2012 To June 30, 2013
Background/History:
In accordance with the administrative rules and regulations implementing Illinois Public Act 92-
0166, the governing body of each public library is required to adopt a resolution annually to
authorize and direct the library to participate in the non - resident card program.
Prior to the passage of P.A. 92 -0166, state law and library system membership codes varied
regarding whether non - resident cards could be sold and what privileges were provided to a non-
resident cardholder. P.A. 92 -0166 standardized non - resident rules across the State. Each library
governing board has the option to participate or not participate. Last year, the Village Board of
Trustees adopted R -1038 directing OBPL to participate in the program from July 1, 2011
through June 30, 2012. No non - resident cards have been requested or issued during the year.
Upon the recommendation of the Library Commissioners, the staff proposes that the Village
Board authorize the Library to participate in this program from July 1, 2012 through June 30,
2013. The cost for a non - resident family card during this period is $275.00 using the State's
required mathematical formula and $112.00 for an individual card.
Recommendation:
The Oak Brook Public Library Commission and Library Director recommend this resolution be
adopted.
