Data Requests

Submitted by jrollman on Mon, 05/22/2017 - 09:52

Planning & Assessment is implementing an improved process for requesting customized data sets. In an effort to better serve our library members, a standardized data request form is now available via MyMetrolibrary under Departments > Planning > Data Request.

This new workflow is intended to enable more effective queuing, load-balancing, and turn-around times for our department and yours. Please begin using this new workflow at the time of your next request.

Thank you!

    Ad-Team Meeting Minutes for March 2004

    Submitted by dbeach on Mon, 03/01/2004 - 00:00

    Author Dinner. Ernestine provided an update on the upcoming author dinner. It was recently learned that Author Fannie Flagg would not be able to make the dinner scheduled for April 17. Working hard trying to find a replacement on short notice they were successful. The featured speaker will be Dr. Beck Weathers, author of Left For Dead: My Journey Home from Everest. It was suggested that the Ad Team attend. Donna commented on how wonderful the dinner was last year. Recommendations on advertising for the event were also discussed. Ernestine wanted to thank Scott, Jeanne, and Teresa for all their hard work on the changes that had to be made. She also mentioned the number of sponsors from last year's dinner has doubled.
    Budget discussion, re: Performance Awards & Market Adjustment. Ric has began researching information on salaries of librarians and how well the system's salaries compare to other salaries across the United States and the Midwest. He commented on the FY 03-04 approved salary increases of 2 % for Market Adjustment and 0-3% for Performance Appraisal. More research is needed before coming up with the final figures to present to the Commission for the upcoming fiscal year. It was stated the budget process for the Performance Appraisals and Market Adjustments can be started by using the numbers from last year and then adjusting as needed. The next Ad Team meeting will primarily be to discuss the budget. Reports will be delayed until the following meeting. By consensus, the next Ad Team meeting will be Wednesday, March 24.

    Manager of Library Operations Meeting Minutes for January 2004

    Submitted by tgoggins on Wed, 01/21/2004 - 00:00

    The task force will be finalizing plans at their next meeting. The beginning date for this year will be June 1st, but Neighborhood Arts won't start until June 7th, which means 8 weeks of programs. Also, the Read to Me and Reader groups have been combined now into one large group. The Task Force is looking at doing away with the contracts, using stickers on their reading logs to track their progress to their goals. Kids still get to choose whether they set goals by books, pages, or hours, with "8" being the magic number for their goal. They must go over their goal to be able to be entered in drawings for the big prizes. They will be limited to a maximum number of times they can enter the drawings. A minimum number of visits to the library may be included (4 visits during the 8 weeks, for ex.)

    Karen asked how multiple entry things would be handled. LaVetta explained that kids would have to meet their goal again for each additional entry.

    LaVetta mentioned that each agency would be asked to provide a location for pictures to be taken of the kids when they get their medals, possibly next to the Spoticus stand-up.
