SUBJECT: Teen Advisory Board Report SUBMITTED BY: Kathryn Hunt DEPARTMENT: Library DATE: August 5, 2026 Item Number 6.A BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION: The Lincoln Public Library has had a Teen Advisory Board (TAB) since 2021. TABs are a nationwide library best practice encouraged by the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA). TAB provides a volunteer leadership opportunity for high school students in Lincoln and the surrounding community. Through this experience, TAB members are able to build practical skills related to event planning and management, make an impact on both library services and the community, gain a greater understanding of the role of libraries, and build friendships. The Library expands its ability to serve the community and gains invaluable insight into how the Library can best support our youth. Currently, the TAB is composed of 14 members from six different high schools. The majority of members are in their second year on the TAB. FINDINGS/ANALYSIS: Applying to TAB: In order to ensure a meaningful experience for all TAB volunteers, the TAB is limited to 10-14 members. Previously accepted members who desire to continue on and who have met the performance expectations the previous year are automatically continued into the next year. Most TAB applicants participate for multiple years. The library accepts applications for TAB year-round, but staff review applications each October. Select applicants then complete an in-person interview with an interview panel made up of library staff and current TAB members. Successful applicants then begin the following January. STAFF REPORT 8

Serving on TAB: TAB members are expected to commit to one calendar year of participation, unless they are graduating at mid-year. While on TAB, members are expected to: Attend monthly meetings, training and events Communicate effectively through email and online tools Set goals and work well with other team members to achieve them Represent the TAB and Library positively and professionally TAB Activities Activities that the TAB and its members participate in include, but are not limited to: Providing input and suggestions on library services, either through formal processes (such as during our 2025 Community Outreach project) or informally in monthly meetings. Promoting library services to peers and schools Judging entries for the Summer Youth Writing Contest and run the associated Youth Literary Festival Running semi-regular family programs, including Stickerpalooza, craft events, and the Summer Ice Cream Social. Moderating a monthly Teen Book Club Maintaining a monthly book display, highlighting parts of the YA collection Providing additional support for major library programs such as Family Art Night (where TAB is responsible for leading one of the art projects) and Summer Reading. 9

SUBJECT: Twelve Bridges High School Parking Maps SUBMITTED BY: Kathryn Hunt DEPARTMENT: Library DATE: August 5, 2026 Item Number 6.B BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION: Since Twelve Bridges High School opened in 2021, discussions of the best way to limit parking impacts have been an ongoing conversation. At the May 6, 2026 LAB/LAC meeting, there was a discussion of the impact of parking from third party renters of the school site, and what communication may help limit those impacts in the future. In response to this, WPUSD staff developed the two attached flyers to provide to renters of the TBHS site. One of these maps is for weekend events, while the other is for weekday events.

SUBJECT: Library Director's Updates SUBMITTED BY: Kathryn Hunt DEPARTMENT: Library DATE: August 5, 2026 Item Number 7.C FINDINGS/ANALYSIS: Circulation & Visits Library check-outs and visits are on track to meet or slightly exceed last year’s numbers. Collections & Materials Library materials were reorganized in May. New releases, main fiction, main non-fiction, and large print materials were moved to new areas in the library. This reorganization created increased room for high-interest items, such as large print and fiction materials, and increased the visibility of the new releases. Public opinion of the change has been overwhelmingly positive, and staff will review circulation statistics at the end of the calendar year to see any numerical impacts. Staff have continued to purchase additional local titles for Libby, using funds that previously would have been directed to Hoopla. These titles were chosen to decrease wait times for Lincoln Public Library cardholders with holds on popular items, as well as to ensure highly anticipated new releases are in the collection. Staff are reviewing circulation reports monthly and continuing to refine our collection development criteria for Libby. ZipBook funding was removed from the Governor’s Budget at the last minute, reducing the state funding for the program to $0. Staff are working with the Friends of the Lincoln Public Library, the Lincoln Hills Foundation, and reviewing the departmental budget in order to continue to fund patron-driven collection development. Facilities In May, worn flooring in the Willow Room and the Lobby was replaced. In addition, the lobby and study rooms were repainted, and the central furniture in the lobby was removed to improve visibility and safety. The City’s facility staff are still completing upgrades to the STAFF REPORT 15

drinking fountains in the lobby. Parking: No unanticipated impacts to parking since the last meeting. The Junior Rhino 2026 schedule has been announced, with home games scheduled for August 8, August 29, September 19, October 3, and October 17. Outreach Library staff are planning to attend the WPUSD Back to School Resource Fair. Last year, staff spoke to over 200 families and made dozens of accounts. We are grateful to partner with WPUSD for this event, which greatly increases our ability to reach and serve families in the downtown area. Library Hold Lockers: Library hold lockers continue to provide access to roughly 30% of all holds. The Twelve Bridges Lockers are frequently at capacity, though patrons rarely wait for more than one additional day for a locker. Community Center locker use increased substantially over the summer months. Programs & Events: Select previous programs in May, June, and July: We joined libraries across the coast as part of One Coast, One Book. This year’s selection is George Takei’s graphic novel memoir, They Called Us Enemy. We hosted book clubs with this title and provided access to Los Angeles Public Library’s live-streamed interview with George Takei. This interview was attended or viewed 3400 times by library patrons up and down the west coast! Our annual Youth Summer Writing Contest closed on July 31. This contest invites children and teens to submit their short stories and poetry to be reviewed by the TAB and potentially published in our annual anthology. We also offered short story and poetry workshops for youth over the summer to support our young writers. Summer Reading 2026 began June 1 and continued through July 31. Just shy of 1000 readers participated, completing over 5900 hours of reading over 8 weeks. Lisa See came and spoke on her latest book, Daughters of the Sun and Moon , on July 30. This event was held at Sun City Lincoln Hills, and supported by the Friends of the Lincoln Public Library. Upcoming programs in August, September, and October include: Staff are preparing for class tours in August and September, as the new school year begins. Family Art Night and the Tiny Art Show return on October 10th, encouraging all of our community to engage in creative pursuits. 16

at the Lincoln Public LibraryMay 2026Lincoln Public LibraryMay 2026In May, library staff completed one of the first major reorganizations of the Twelve Bridges Library. While the shelves remained in the same places, new release items, fiction, non-fiction, and large print titles moved to new locations. These changes created more room for in-demand items in the fiction and large print locations, and made the new releases more visible to our patrons.

30,537 were physical items and 5847 were digital36,384 items borrowedMay 2026Lincoln Public LibraryZipBooksLibrary Service Highlight:ZipBooks provides library patrons with speedy access to books that the library does not already own. A patron simply requests the item, the library purchases it from Amazon, and the book is shipped directly to the patron’s home. When finished, the patron returns the book, and the library adds it to the collection. Because Zip Books is a user-driven program, the library collection becomes more closely matched to the needs of the local community. The library has successfully applied for and received state grants to fund the ZipBooks program since 2018, and has added thousands of patron requested titles as a result. The Friends of the Lincoln Public Library provide additional financial support for this program annually, to help the library meet community demand.Funded by the State of California, ZipBooks allows the library to build a collection responsive to our community.May by the numbersPlus, 189 new patrons joined the library!Community members attended programs 675 times35% of holds directed to the hold lockers31 programs and events822 items picked up from lockers16,935 visits to the Library21
