The meeting was called to order at 7:30 by President John Hales. The minutes of the Board meeting held March 6, 1991 were approved.
TREASURER'S REPORT: Treasurer Bill Malone reported that the June book sale proceeds of $2,047.40 were the highest ever! Interim sales have also increased dramatically, with $615.42 for the second quarter.
OLD BUSINESS: The Bylaws Committee requested that their report be scheduled for the September meeting. The History of the Friends of the Library (FOL) brochure was completed and 500 copies printed. The brochure cost exceeded the original budget by $124.25. A motion carried to reimburse John Hales for the overage. A motion carried to approve an expenditure no greater than $150 to order 500 FOL envelopes. An additional $13 was requested and approved for audio cassette security strips. The Authors' Boutique was discussed and consensus reached that the event will not be held this year.
NEW BUSINESS: Charlotte Malone commented on the poor quality of the tables used for the book sale. She proposed a formal offer of $50-$100 for new tables if other organizations would match. Jack Belasco offered to check prices for tables which could be purchased and stored at the library solely for our use. A telephone vote was taken subsequent to the Board Meeting regarding purchase of tables to be stored at the Library. The amount of $500 was approved and tables were purchased in time for the September sale.

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT (Continued)
It was noted that the purpose of the Belasco funds is not to purchase childrens videos. Therefore the previously allocated $300 for childrens' books will come from the Belasco funds rather than the FOL funds. The motion carried to approve the allocation of funds as requested by Ron.
1992 BOOK SALES: The dates for 1992 book sales are as follows: March 7, June 13, September 12, and December 5. Charlotte reported that insurance has been obtained to cover the book sales through September. Coverage for 1992 sales will be discussed at the September meeting.
CALIFORNIA COLLECTION: Chairman Betty Evans requested $50 more to add to the 16 books purchased for the collection year to date. A motion was made and carried to approve her request.
