Old Business:
-
Update on changes made in the past two months at the library
-
Things yet to do:
-
The wooden cabinet upstairs needs to be moved downstairs to the B Porter Room.
-
The white table/chairs in the B Porter room need to go into the children’s Room.
-
The large desk next to the door needs to go into the B Porter Room

The other very old desk needs to be advertised, given away, etc.

If this could be done in the next couple of weeks, then the space will be cleared for the new chairs from Plourde’s.
