TO: President and Members of the Board of Library Trustees
FROM: Deborah Kaye Clark, Library Director
SUBJECT: MEMBERSHIP IN "TIERRA DEL SOL REGIONAL NETWORK"
RECOMMENDATION
That the Library Board approve an application for membership in the Tierra del Sol Regional
Library Network of the Library of California.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Library of California is planned to be a state wide library resource, representing
partnerships of more than 8,000 public, academic, special and school libraries. The Rancho
Cucamonga Public Library Director, involved in the planning process from the beginning, more
than 12 years ago, recommends that the Board submit an application for membership in the
Tierra del Sol Regional Library Network.
Presently, there are no dues involved in membership. Currently, the Rancho Cucamonga
Public Library is served through its membership in the Inland Library System, a California
Library Services Act provision. The law which allowed the passage of the Library of California
included special language which continues the CLSA systems until the Library of California is
funded to replace them. No one knows how long that might take.
Currently, the Library Director recommends that the Library participate in the new structure.
There are no dues for participation. The positive results through membership will be the
participation of the Rancho Cucamonga Library staff in the planning process to continue to
develop the new system and the grant opportunities this membership brings.
The Library Director will continue to bring each step of this process to create a new statewide
system to the Board for their input and approval.
FISCAL IMPACT
None, since no dues are required at this time.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The Library of California Act specifies that there can be no dues for membership; therefore there
is no membership fee to join the Tierra del Sol Regional Library Network. All basic son, ices for
members will be funded by the State at no cost or reduced/subsidized cost. Enhanced services
will be available to members for a fee; however, no members will be required to purchase any
enhanced services or participate in a reduced/subsidized cost program as a condition of
membership.
Members are required to share resources with other member libraries, but the Tierra del Sol
Regional Library Network/Library of California will provide funding to offset the cost of this
sharing.
Participation in some programs may require the commitment of local resources; however, such
commitment should be more than outweighed by the programmatic value received, as with
training opportunities.
Some of the programs that the library will be able to pa~icipate in as a result of membership that
will result in tangible financial impact include:
1. Contracts negotiated for databases and other services that will take advantage of the buying
power of libraries statewide and will reduce the cost for local provision of full-text databases
and other services to patrons.
2. Relationships with major academic and resource libraries statewide that have the potential to
reduce or eliminate the cost for receipt of materials and information from these libraries.
3. Stntewide funding of telecommunications infrastructure development within and between
regional networks, including installation of both hardware and sof~:ware to develop and
enhauce all types of communications among member libraries, enhancement of local
capabilities to enable connections to the network and development of communications and
marketing solutions to address local needs
BACKGROUND:
The Tierra del Sol Regional Library Network of the Library of California is a state-funded
program to support cooperative resource sharing and service delivery among libraries of all types
throughout the state of California. Each potential member is required to complete an application
for membership in the Network, which includes identification of participating libraries and
authorization to participate by its governing board or appropriate administrative authority.
Enacted ia 1998, the Library of California is comprised of seven regional networks, each
organized to develop and deliver library services among libraries of all types in the region. While
member libraries are expected to continue to provide services and facilities for their primary
clientele, thc Library of California is building the infrastructure to facilitate and enhance
statewide resource sharing and service delivery. State funding provides for a base level of
membership for each library that joins the Tierra del Sol Regional Library Network. This funding
includes access to all state-funded regional services at no cost as well as to those state-funded
services provided to all libraxies stntewide.

What is th; Library of California?
The Library of California (LOC) refers to the new law for library coopomtion. The original legislation
(SB409) was passed and signed by the Governor in 1998. Thc law became effective lanuary 1, 1999 and on
that date the California Library Services Board (CLSB) became the Library of California Board (LOCB) with
the responsibility of overseeing both Acts. The new "Regional Library Networks" will be the primmy service
units, providing a seamless system of library resources for the benefit of all Californians. There is much
planning and implementation work left before all of the LOC programs are fully implemented, but there are
many people, librarians and library users, throughout out the state working to make it a reality.
What are the Inland Library Svstem (ILS) and the Serra Cooperative Library SYstem?
ILS and Serm are cooperative public librao/ systems formed under the California Library Services Act
(CLSA) and administered by the CLSB and, now, the LOCB. ILS and Serm serve public libraries in Imperial,
Inyo, Riverside, San Bemardino and San Diego Counties - the same geographic area served by the Tierra del
Sol Regional Library Network (aka. Library of California Planning Region V).
How is LOC different from CLSA ?
CLSA promotes the sharing of resources among public libraries and LOC promotes sharing among all types
of libraries.
Will LOC abolish ILS and Serra?
The LOC law states that CLSA will be repealed only when public libraries receive the same level of service
under LOC that was provided under CLSA.
Since Region V and Tierra del Sol Regional Library Network have not hired aIw staff vet, who is sending our
~aterial?
The Inland Libra~ System is the fiscal agent for the planning grants that have been approved by the LOCB.
Inland Library System staff also act as the contact point for Region V information from the California State
Library and from you. There is also a large Regional Planning Committee and several subcommittees who are
working to get the Region organized.
Why is my library invited to loin the Tierra del Sol Regional Network (Plannin~ Re~ion 1/).9
For planning purposes eight regions were approved by the LOC Board. Tierra del Sol - Region V
encompasses the combined areas of the ILS and Setra CLSA systems. Libraries of all types within thg~
boundaries hav~ been invited to participate in the planning process. Prospective member libra~es were
invited to submit proposals for a name for the Planning Region. The Region V Planning Committee narrowed
the submissions down to three names. Ballots were included with invitations to the full regional meeting held
on April 4, 2000. Ballots were counted and the name announced at that meeting.

questions about the application process. Where can l get more information?

State Plan Reference (e.g. "Goal C. S~T #1"): Goal D. S-T #1:2
A Telephone Survey conducted for the City of Rancho Cucamonga in November of 1999 revealed
that 77% of the community wanted the Library to partner more closely with schools in serving their
youngsters and the preferred method in delivering those services was through al~er school
programming. The need was particularly urgent in families of low income (below $50K annually)
who were not so likely to be able to afford quality after school care.
This issue was raised at a meeting of the RC Community Services Network, (Attachment A), an
organization whose membership covers the entire gamut of service agencies from churches to parks
to libraries and beyond. Ideas of how we could jointly serve the needs of low-income youngsters
throughout the city--many of whom lacked the transportation to reach our organized after school
programs--were brainstormed, then discussed and analyzed. From the results, a joint outreach
program uniting Community Services with the Library Department emerged that would bring
resources to the target youngsters--wherever they gathered. Sites volunteered were YMCA daycare
programs and two local housing authority's recreation rooms. A meeting soon followed where
additional partnerships were made with the 5 school superintendents that represent the Rancho
Cucamonga area and two major goals were developed: 1) Get at-risk kids ages 7 - 14 excited about
reading. 2) Provided quality programs for every at-risk kid ages 7 - 14 after school.
From these beginnings, Project REACH was developed. REACH stands for recreation, education,
arts, culture and the humanities. Designed as an outreach program directed at low income
youngsters between the ages of 7 and 14, Project REACH will consist of two mobile units (one
bookmobile, one recreation-mobile) staffed to deliver quality after school and week-end
programming. The bookmobile will provide a quality collection of 5,000 volumes directed at the
interests of the target clients. Technology will offer direct dial-in to the library and the Intemet.
Sites for the after school and weekend visits will be selected for their access to youth deemed "at
risk". Sample sites include: schools and YMCA sites with high enrollment of low-income
youngsters, West Valley Juvenile Hall, Low-income housing units, local Skate Park, etc.
Programming will also be offered. Jointly developed by the Recreation Division and the Library
with survey input from both the client group and their parents, programs will offer sports, culture,
literacy, performing arts and other selected topics in a multi-cultural approach. Examples are
storytelling sessions, arts & crafts sessions, drama training, soft ball and kick ball, sports clinics,
book-talking, creative writing, etc.
Youngsters and their parents will be surveyed upon registering for the service and re-surveyed
through their participation to assess attitudinal and other measurable changes. Analysis and
guidance for the program will be provided through an advisory group composed of original planning
group members and representatives from the client group.
At the successful completion of the grant project, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will continue
the project with full budget support.

10. Client needs and project goals.
Client Needs:
According to a recent study cited by the California Department of Education, 70% of schools today
do not offer after school programs for youngsters. At the same time, 90% of the voters polled stated
that they want and will support quality after school programs that emphasize basic skills and positive
social interaction.
A telephone survey conducted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in November of 1999 found that
the number one requested service in the City of Rancho Cucamonga was an increase in quality after
school programming. In the Library portion of the survey, more cooperation with the schools was
seen as an asset in establishing programs by 77% of those queried. The need was particularly urgent
in families of low income (below $50K annually) who were not as likely to be able to afford quality
after school care.
Over 22,000, or 18% of the population, are youngsters ages 7 to 14 years enrolled in elementary and
secondary school in Rancho Cucamonga. Of these, more than 8,000 meet the definition of"at risk"
by qualifying for full subsidy of the school lunch program. Defined by "The Goals 2000" Educate
America Act of 1994 as a student who, "because of limited English proficiency, poverty, race,
geographic location, or economic disadvantage, faces a greater risk of low educational achievement
or reduced academic expectations", these youngsters are children who need motivating in achieving
the basic cornerstone educational skill--reading. But how to get them to read and to make reading a
regular part of their lives?
This issue was raised at a meeting of the RC Community Services Network, an organization whose
membership covers the entire gamut of service agencies from chumhes to parks to libraries and
beyond. Ideas of how we could jointly serve the needs of Iow-income youngsters throughout the
3
city--many of whom lacked the transportation to reach our organized after school programs--were
brainstormed, then discussed and analyzed. From the results, a joint outreach program uniting
Community Services with the Library Department emerged that would bring resources to the target
youngsters--wherever they gathered. It was decided that while Project REACH services would be
available to all 22,000 youngsters, the primary target groups for Project REACH would be children 7
to 14 years old perceived as "at risk". Sites vohmteemd were YMCA daycare programs and two
local housing authority's recreation rooms. A meeting soon followed where additional parmerships
were made with the four school superintendents that represent K-8 grade~ in the Rancho Cucamonga
service area.
Project Goals:
A planning group emerged to design a project, (Attachment B). The planning group had
representation from all school districts, the YMCA, two low-income housing projects, and the city's
Parks and Recreation and Library departments. At this meeting it was brought out that the issue
blocking the success of many youngsters was not just "how to read" but an attitude that placed a low
value on reading as an activity and a skill. Workirig under that premise, two major goals were
initially identified for the project to address:
1) Get at-risk kids ages 7 - 14 excited about reading and change their existing non-reading habits
2) Provide quality after school programs for every at-risk kid ages 7 - 14.
Barriers to Achieving Goals:
The Planning Committee identified existing challenges to the above goals in how services are
currently delivered. Those items seen to be the greatest barriers were as follows:
1) High cost of most after school care
2) Scarcity of existing free after school programs provided by the City of Rancho Cucamonga
3) City only has one library, located 10 miles and more from many low income areas
4) Unavailability of transportation to get the youngster to existing programs
5) Many youngsters are reading challenged and do not enjoy the entire reading experience
6) Reading is "boring" and "not cool".
Project Description:
In the process of proposing the goals and identifying the major challenges to achieving them, the
concept of a joint service combining recreational services with a travelling bookmobile was bom and
Project REACH emerged. REACH stands for recreation, education, arts, culture and the humanities.
Designed as an outreach program directed at low income youngsters between the ages of 7 and 14,
Project REACH will consist of two mobile units (one bookmobile, one recreation-mobile) staffed to
deliver quality after school and week-end programming. The Recreation Mobile will provide
portable basketball, kick ball, baseball, board games and other "hook" events to encourage at risk
youngsters to sign up for the program. The bookmobile will provide a quality collection of 5,000
volumes directed at the interests of the target clients. Technology will offer direct dial-in to the
library and the Interact. Sites for the after school and weekend visits will be selected for their access
to youth deemed "at risk". Sample sites: schools sites and YMCA sites with high enrollment of low-
income youngsters (Attachment C); West Valley Juvenile Hall; Low-income housing units; local
Skate Park, etc.
4
Cultural programming will also be offered. Jointly developed by the Recreation Division and the
Library with survey input from both the client group and their parents, the programs will offer
sports, culture, literacy, performing arts and other selected topics and the approach will be multi-
cultural. Examples are storytelling sessions, arts & crafts sessions, drama training, sports clinics,
book-talking, creative writing, etc.
Client Input:
To generate client input during the planning process, two brief surveys were created, one to be
completed by parents and one directed at youngsters 7 to 14 years of age. The survey (Attachment
C) was distributed in grades 3-7 at three schools sites selected due to their high percentage of low
income households; the survey was distributed to YMCA afterschool sites in areas serving low
income families; through Parks and Recreation summer class registration sessions and to the two
housing units managed by Southern California Housing Authority. 569 surveys were completed,
with 20% of the respondents stating that they did not enjoy reading and/or did not have a library
card. Over 100 surveys were distributed to parents. 100% of those surveyed were interested in after
school programs for their youngsters. 82% stated that they could arrange for their child to attend
either at school or at a YMCA site.
While the results of this survey verified youngsters' interest in after school programs as well as
parents willingness and ability to allow youngsters to attend, the questions were not designed to give
clear direction on the planning of the program content. Therefore two focus group sessions were
organized, involving 30 parent/child teams from the library's "Back to Basics" program* and class
visits to three schools coordinated to allow the youngsters in the target group to brainstorm their
ideas for "truly cool" after school programs. The lively discussions and recommendations made by
the youngsters in those sessions were included in the programming plans and are available as
Attachment E.
Finally, an Advisory Committee (Attachment F) was established and agreed to meet at least on a
quarterly basis. It consists of the original members of the Planning Committee, plus four of the
Parent/Child teams that participated in the original focus group. That committee will play a key role
in the development of program content, the location of future site visits and evaluating the success of
the program.
*The "Back to Basics" Program was an LSTA grant funded program that provided tutoring after
school for youngsters 7 to 12. It is on-going, funded by the City of Rancho Cucamonga and CDBG
funds, and focuses on reading skills.

book-talking, creative writing, etc.
Youngsters and their parents will be surveyed upon registering for the service and re-surveyed
through their participation to assess attitudinal and other measurable changes. Analysis and
guidance for the program will be provided through an advisory group composed of original planning
group members and representatives from the client group.
At the successful completion of the grant project, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will continue
the project with full budget support. 2

10. Client needs and project goals.
Client Needs:
According to a recent study cited by the California Department of Education, 70% of schools today
do not offer after school programs for youngsters. At the same time, 90% of the voters polled stated
that they want and will support quality after school programs that emphasize basic skills and positive
social interaction.
A telephone survey conducted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in November of 1999 found that
the number one requested service in the City of Rancho Cucamonga was an increase in quality after
school programming. In the Library portion of the survey, more cooperation with the schools was
seen as an asset in establishing programs by 77% of those queried. The need was particularly urgent
in families of low income (below $50K annually) who were not as likely to be able to afford quality
after school care.
Over 22,000, or 18% of the population, are youngsters ages 7 to 14 years enrolled in elementary and
secondary school in Rancho Cucamonga. Of these, more than 8,000 meet the definition of "at risk"
by qualifying for full subsidy of the school lunch program. Defined by "The Goals 2000" Educate
America Act of 1994 as a student who, "because of limited English proficiency, poverty, race,
geographic location, or economic disadvantage, faces a greater risk of low educational achievement
or reduced academic expectations", these youngsters are children who need motivating in achieving
the basic cornerstone educational skill--reading. But how to get them to read and to make reading a
regular part of their lives?
This issue was raised at a meeting of the RC Community Services Network, an organization whose
membership covers the entire gamut of service agencies from chumhes to parks to libraries and
beyond. Ideas of how we could jointly serve the needs of low-income youngsters throughout the
3
city--many of whom lacked the transportation to roach our organized after school programs--were
brainstormed, then discussed and analyzed. From the results, a joint outreach program uniting
Community Services with the Library Department emerged that would bring resources to the target
youngsters--wherever they gathered. It was decided that while Project REACH services would be
available to all 22,000 youngsters, the primary target groups for Project REACH would be children 7
to 14 years old perceived as "at risk". Sites volunteered were YMCA daycare programs and two
local housing authority's recreation rooms. A meeting soon followed where additional partnerships
were made with the four school superintendents that represent K-8 grade~ in the Rancho Cucamonga
service area.
Project Goals:
A planning group emerged to design a project, (Attachment B). The planning group had
representation from all school districts, the YMCA, two low-income housing projects, and the city's
Parks and Recreation and Library departments. At this meeting it was brought out that the issue
· blocking the success of many youngsters was not j.ust "how to read" but an attitude that placed a low
value on reading as an activity and a skill. Working under that premise, two major goals were
initially identified for the project to address:
1) Get at-risk kids ages 7 - 14 excited about reading and change their existing non-reading habits
2) Provide quality after school programs for every at-risk kid ages 7 - 14.
Barriers to Achieving Goals:
The Planning Committee identified existing challenges to the above goals in how services are
currently delivered. Those items seen to be the greatest barriers were as follows:
1) High cost of most after school care
2) Scarcity of existing free after school programs provided by the City of Rancho Cucamonga
3) City only has one library, located 10 miles and more from many low income areas
4) Unavailability of transportation to get the youngster to existing programs
5) Many youngsters are reading challenged and do not enjoy the entire reading experience
6) Reading is "boring" and "not cool".
Project Description:
In the process of proposing the goals and identifying the major challenges to achieving them, the
concept of a joint service combining recreational services with a travelling bookmobile was born and
Project REACH emerged. REACH stands for recreation, education, arts, culture and the humanities.
Designed as an outreach program directed at low income youngsters between the ages of 7 and 14,
Project REACH will consist of two mobile units (one bookmobile, one recreation-mobile) staffed to
deliver quality after school and week-end programming. The Recreation Mobile will provide
portable basketball, kick ball, baseball, board games and other "hook" events to encourage at risk
youngsters to sign up for the program. The bookmobile will provide a quality collection of 5,000
volumes directed at the interests of the target clients. Technology will offer direct dial-in to the
library and the Intemet. Sites for the after school and weekend visits will be selected for their access
to youth deemed "at risk". Sample sites: schools sites and YMCA sites with high enrollment of low-
income youngsters (Attachment C); West Valley Juvenile Hall; Low-income housing units; local
Skate Park, etc.
4
Cultural programming will also be offered. Jointly developed by the Recreation Division and the
Library with survey input from both the client group and their parents, the programs will offer
sports, culture, literacy, performing arts and other selected topics and the approach will be multi-
cultural. Examples are storytelling sessions, arts & crafts sessions, drama training, sports clinics,
book-talking, creative writing, etc.
Client Input:
To generate client input during the planning process, two brief surveys were created, one to be
completed by parents and one directed at youngsters 7 to 14 years of age. The survey (Attachment
C) was distributed in grades 3-7 at three schools sites selected due to their high percentage of low
income households; the survey was distributed to YMCA afterschool sites in areas serving low
income families; through Parks and Recreation summer class registration sessions and to the two
housing units managed by Southern California Housing Authority. 569 surveys were completed,
with 20% of the respondents stating that they did not enjoy reading and/or did not have a library
card. Over 100 surveys were distributed to parents. 100% of those surveyed were interested in after
school programs for their youngsters. 82% stated that they could arrange for their child to attend
either at school or at a YMCA site.
While the results of this survey verified youngsters' interest in after school programs as well as
parents willingness and ability to allow youngsters to attend, the questions were not designed to give
clear direction on the planning of the program content. Therefore two focus group sessions were
organized, involving 30 parent/child teams from the library's "Back to Basics" program* and class
visits to three schools coordinated to allow the youngsters in the target group to brainstorm their
ideas for "truly cool" after school programs. The lively discussions and recommendations made by
the youngsters in those sessions were included in the programming plans and are available as
Attachment E.
Finally, an Advisory Committee (Attachment F) was established and agreed to meet at least on a
quarterly basis. It consists of the original members of the Planning Committee, plus four of the
Parent/Child teams that participated in the original focus group. That committee will play a key role
in the development of program content, the location of future site visits and evaluating the success of
the program.
*The "Back to Basics" Program was an LSTA grant funded program that provided tutoring after
school for youngsters 7 to 12. It is on-going, funded by the City of Rancho Cucamonga and CDBG
funds, and focuses on reading skills.

14. Public relations plan.
Key to the success of this project is to maintain the unique identity of the Rancho Cucamonga
Public Library while delivering services offsite. The public relations plan, already underway as of
February 2000, is key to making this happen.
The campaign to raise funds for the Project REACH program began in January of 2000. Part of the
Telethon 2000 campaign, the Library Foundation sent solicitation letters for support to every one of
the PTA districts in Rancho Cucamonga. The attached flier (Attachment J) was included. The
PTA's have been extremely supportive of the project. In addition to the $12,000 they helped raise
through school penny drives and recycling drives, they also intend to promote the Project REACH
visits through their monthly newsletters. Attractive posters produced by the Inland Valley Daily
Bulletin newspaper were also reproduced and over 200 posted throughout the city. (Attachment I)
The Grapevine, the quarterly publication of the City that is mailed to every household, will feature
an article each quarter about the program, highlighting its locations and the special approach the
programs offer for youngsters.
Posters designed for the project will be located in every school and community center of the City.
We will also place posters in service agencies that might be fi-equented by the parents of the client
group. The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, a major sponsor and partner in the annual Telethon
program over the past four years, will provide assistance in poster design and production. The
Comcast Cable Company and Charter Cable Company, also Telethon major sponsors, have agreed
10
to support the program through public service promotion ads and the creation of a tape segment
produced to highlight Project REACH activities.
$5,000 has been budgeted in this year's 2000/2001 foundation budget to create the logo and design
work that will appear on the Bookmobile and the Recreation Mobile. "Geographics", a local
marketing company has been selected to create the design. They have also been contracted to create
a mailer for the Library Foundation, scheduled to appear in November of 2000, that promotes
Project REACH while soliciting for support for the Foundation.
The Project Coordinator will be responsible for assisting in generating standard press releases and
cable statements for the bulletin board.

15. Statewide significance.
The existence of the upcoming statewide grant program to rural and urban libraries providing
funding for starting up bookmobile services is indicative of the fact that bookmobiles are regaining
popularity. The special added component in the Rancho Cucamonga project which combines a
Parks and Recreation Mobile unit with the library's bookmobile might hold special interest for those
libraries applying in the upcoming project--particularly if they intend to target non-reading and
non-library using youngsters t~om at risk households.
In addition, the Rancho Cucamonga Project REACH will also supply Intemet connectivity--an
important component to youngsters in households where the'purchase of a computer is unaffordable
and the school they attend offers limited or no on-line opportunities for student learning.
The completion of the Rancho Cucamonga Project will offer other public libraries the following
tools:
1. The concept of a joint project with their local Parks and Recreation Division
2. An evaluation tool to measure the success of altering attitude and habit changes in non-
readers
3. Another model to reference on how to use technology to create a Cybermobile for the
community.
16. Evaluation.
This project seeks to alter attitudes and behaviors of the target group. The Planning Group is
presently creating a.survey to help evaluate the attitudes of the youngsters at the beginning of the
program visits. Registration will be required to attend the programs and the survey will be required
to register. The youngsters will be resurveyed every quarter (3 months) and any change in attitudes
assessed. Program participants will be required to register for a library card, and a brief survey will
be sent home to their parents or guardians. These registration procedures will help us to identify
the percentage of clients we serve that can be considered part of our target client group.
Standard library statistics will also be used to evaluate the program.
1. The number of new library cards issued to youngsters 7 to 14 years.
2. The increase in circulation figures for the group of borrowers 7 to 14 years.
3. The increase in requests to participate in the Back to Basics Learning Program.
4. The increase in participation in Summer Reading Program.

Project Title: Project REACH
Applicant Jurisdiction: Rancho Cucamonga Public Library
17. Methods of continuation:
A. Local
The long term prospects for continuing this project are excellent, since the only costs being sought
for in this grant application are personnel costs for a coordinator to plan the project, form on-going
partnerships and steer the initial year of operation. The bookmobile itself, the start up collection of
materials, the Community Services staff support and vehicle are all being supplied by the local
jurisdiction.
The Library Telethon conducted on March 24-26 of 2000 was used to raise money for the books to
be housed in the bookmobile. So great was community support for this program, that $63,000 was
raised during the campaign--the highest level of funding for any Telethon in the four year history.
The Library Foundation has committed a minimum of $20,000 from future Telethons to support the
program in future years. The Rancho Cucamonga City Council has already approved a budget for
all support salaries for the project for fiscal year 2000/2001 and approves the purchase of both the
bookmobile and the recreation mobile.
B. Statewide
The last official duty of the Project REACH coordinator will be to prepare for publication an article
on the experiences of the first year of the project. Of special interest will be whether the inclusion
of a recreational element helps to attract non reading youth---and whether programming about
books and reading in a non-threatening atmosphere can change the attitudes and habits of our non-
reading at risk client group.

please rate your overall satisfaction with this workshop.
The mean score was a 4.21. There were five 5's, two 4.5's, ten 4's, and two 3's.
II. What did you like the most about the workshop?
1. Camaraderie and teamwork. (11)
a) Involvement of staff from all Divisions. I enjoyed working
with/collaborating with people I don't get to talk or work with
everyday (6)
b) Employee interaction (2)
c) Getting to know each other better, sharing ideas and learning more (2)
d) Team building
2. Group activity. (7)
a) It was interesting to discover what others thought means the most to
the Library's success. Learning where others are coming from was of
benefit. I will be better able to communicate with them again. (2)
b) The ideas that everyone came up with. Very good, and clear that we
are going in the same direction.
c) Causes the staff to collectively think about our goals and how we are
going to implement them.
d) Having a chance to voice my opinion on where I see the Library today
and in the future.
e) The overall process was interesting and useful. It was clear and well
organized.
3. Mr. Gavares was pleasant and funny, and not boring.
4. Interaction within our Division
III. What could have been improved?
1. Nothing - A very good program (3)
2. Maybe a little shorter. Perhaps done on two days, four hours each. More
time to work toward final product together. (3)
3. More time to develop ideas in our Divisions. We have too much to
discuss!
4. Have enough time to actually develop a few sample vision and mission
statements. It would have been good practice.
5. Given my opinion more.
6. Less time on minor issues. Some exercises seemed repetitive.
7. Less quotes.
8. The Division section was not well defined to anyone but the Division
head. Others should have had a clue as to what was supposed to be
happening.
9. How everyone didn't act like they wanted to be here.
IV. What suggestions do you have for yourself and each other to successfully
follow-up and follow-through on the agreements and action plans established
today?
1. Semi-Annual Meetings (2)
2. Need to have teams actually follow-up rather than just letting it die on the
vine.
3. Schedule Division meetings and staff meetings every month or two.
4. Don't wait. Begin soon.
5. Meet occasionally to make sure we are on track
6. Communicate with each other and work together.
7. More staff meetings.
8. Continue staff meeting and re-evaluation of mission and vision statements.
9. More meetings to focus on suggestions of what they want to happen
within the library.
10. Hopefully this will happen, as I think the value of vision and mission
statements is high.
11. Updates by the Committees working on the various vision and mission
statements.
12. Follow-up on the City (?) only training will be necessary, and I hope it
happens!.
13. I'd like to see the vision and mission of the Department statements include
all divisions of the Library.
14. Communication for and to EVERY person.
15. I just hope that everyone acts like a team and works better with each other.
V. Other Comments
1. I like the people I work with.
Thanks!

4. Perhaps we should discuss how we can keep these ideas conscious in our
daily activities
5. I think that we need better management and better organization.

SUBJECT: UPDATE ON THE LIBRARY MASTER PLAN PROCESS
RECOMMENDATION
That the Library Board review the attached agenda and the packet of information designed for a joint
meeting between the Library Board and the Rancho Cucamonga City Council to discuss potential goals
for the Library Master Plan. After discussion, the Board may move approval of the agenda; move
approval after changes; and/or schedule an additional study session for the Board to review data before
meeting with the City Council.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
As part of the Library Master Plan process, a survey was authorized to provide data for future expansion
for the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library. The survey results were analyzed by the Library consultant
on the project and the management team of the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library, along with a team of
two library specialists with over 50 years of collective experience. Together, this team forged an outline
of potential goals for growth for review and discussion by the Library Board and the City Council
Staff proposes that the Library Board use these recommended goals as the spring- board in their joint
meeting with the City Council.
The informational packets contain a background report synthesizing survey results with challenges to
library growth in the future and outlining the proposed goals to achieve "smart growth". The appendix
sections include the complete library survey data, information on future technology opportunities,
alternative methods of financing growth and comparative library statistics.

SUBJECT: STATUS OF DONOR WALL
RECOMMENDATION
No recommendation. For information only.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The recent failure of the offer of free design assistance through a local architectural firm,
prompted the reopening of discussions with the United States Bronze Sign Company.
Originally, I had contacted this company and sent approximately 20 slides of the library
exterior and interior for their artists review.
The attached designs are their new approach to the design for our donor wall. The
Library Foundation will be meeting on August 14th and will have the Donor Wall design
as an action item on their agenda.
I have requested the company to forward potential materials for construction and an
outline of anticipated costs for the design and construction.
FISCAL IMPACT
No impact at this time.
