The regular meeting of the Board of the Clearwater Public Library was held in the
Chamber of Commerce Board room, Thursday October 15, 1936 at 3 P.M.
Present: Mr. Bayly, Mr. Cornwell, Mr. Paxton, Mr. Riddle, with president, Mr.
Bayly in the chair.
The minutes of the last meeting were read ,and approved. Bills up to date were
read and approved.
Librarian reported: -
That Ruth Smith had now been'working a year in the library; 10
months without salary, last two months receiving $15.00 per month. Proposed by
Mr. Paxton, seconded by Mr. Riddle~ that her salary be $25.00. per month. Motion
carried.
Also report~d - Book racks and filing cases badly needed, espec-
ially card catalog files. Temporarily, two wooden bookracks made by the Fi~emen,
with lumber from Paxton-Pavey Co. at cost, were taking care of 600 to 800 books,
but cards were being put into cardboard boxes, which were unsatisfactory.
Plans of the proposed improvements to the basement of the library were submitted
to the Board, from the City engineer.
The Board members thought the cost entirely too much for a basement, and that an
addition to the centre one-third back of existing building, would be much more
practical. After some discussion, President suggested that no action be taken
until City Commissioners be heard from as to proposed addition.

Librarian stated that norhing more had been heard since assistant engineer had
asked that library waive precedence in the project, to allow the roof of auditorium
to be fixed, as that endangered life, which was granted.
There being no further business, meeting adjourned.
