The Public Works Department has been working on redirecting the output of the sump pump. During the fire inspection, it was noted that some boxes and other stuff was stored too close to the furnace in the upstairs area and near the fire extinguisher. The president of the Friends of the Library was notified as this is the area used by the Friends for the Silent Auction. Director Lindsey Ganz resigned from her position and will be the new director at the Columbus Public Library. New staff computers and monitors were installed. Warner is a company that installs cabling and they came out to take a look at our needs for the wireless access points project. |
