Meeting Minutes-Recommendation to the City Council Committee • Maintain the current floor plan with respect to the current large meeting room and the lobby/vestibule.

The current proposed site is not adequate. • It is important that both the City Council Committee and KCLS understand that the library is more than a transactional venue for checking books in and out. It is a generator of social capital that binds our community together • The citizens would like to know what plans KCLS has with respect to ensuring that the Mercer Island Library is keeping pace with the increasing digital world in which we live and expansion of print collections and periodicals.
