Discontinue the "2 for 1" movie deal on Thursdays and Fridays. 2) Increase rental time on high-demand DVDs from 3 to 7 days. 3) Decrease rental fee on videos, making them all a $.50 loan. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS A media workgroup of staff has evaluated library media. The group's purpose was to form recommendations geared towards improving media earnings, taking into consideration new technology, borrowing trends, while at the same time streamlining and maintaining a high level of customer service. Media earnings are down overall, the highest borrowing days for all movies have become Thursdays and Fridays when the library offers the "2 for 1" movie deal. The library loses potential earnings when a patron checks out 2high-demand DVDs for $3 during the movie deal days. The original purpose of the "2 for 1" movie deal, proposed in November of 2000, was to generate business on Fridays (a day showing the lowest per hour circulation in the 7 day operational week); and to increase circulation of videos at a time when the library did not own DVDs. This policy proved so popular (and resulted in a surprising increase of rental income) that when the library was forced to close on Fridays due to budget o~ cuts, the two-for-one was moved to Thursday. With time, it has grown to include all movies, both videos and DVDs. The public has responded favorably and now checks- out most of their movies on the "2 for 1"days of Thurs/Fri, resulting in heavy traffic days which skew statistics and attendance. In addition, these days coincide with the upcoming weekend, when most of the public does tend to checkout movies. In reaching their decision regarding how to raise income and still provide a high level of patron satisfaction, staff considered the following issues: 1) The need to prepare for eventual Friday closure for the Archibald Library, after the Victoria Gardens Library has opened and established their permanent schedule of open hours. 2) The need to move videos off the shelf. The original two-for-one program was designed both to increase business on Fridays as well as to stimulate checkout to reduce congestion on video shelves. 3) The need to streamline check out procedures by making all video/DVD items the same price with consistent checkout days. 4) The need to eliminate the "2 for 1" program to improve functionality of statistics. Currently, the count is complicated by whether the dollars were earned for a two for one or a regular checkout. After extensive statistic gathering, reviewing other library fines/fees and discussion of . the service needs and perceptions of the public, staff proposes the following: 1) Discontinue the "2 for 1" days in an effort to increase media earnings by maximizing rentals of DVDs. 2) Extend the borrowing time to 7 days, maintaining customer satisfaction by giving at the same time we are taking away. Increased borrowing time creates consistency as all other movies checkout for 7 days; and is geared towards making the library more competitive with other movie lending agencies. 3) Decrease all video rentals to $.50, due to the declining popularity of videos; the need to keep circulations high because of the limitation of shelving space; and the need for consistency of rental period and cost for media. FISCAL IMPACT Modest positive impact. High-demand DVD earnings will increase if checked-out at current rate on Thursdays and Fridays, the former "2 for 1"days. Video rental income is expected to stabilize, since the number of video checkouts will increase, compensating for the reduced rental rate.
