Trustees discussed edits to the collection development and reconsideration policy that reference a new Massachusetts law; staff added employee-protection language, clarified reconsideration timelines and noted that library removals may now be challengeable under state procedures.

The director said a 'no override' FY28 budget could force 8–9% cuts—equivalent to 2–3 full-time positions—reducing open hours and threatening outreach programs; staff plan to apply for a waiver and continue public communication on the override process.

Jamie Penny told trustees physical holdings and acquisition counts remain steady while physical circulation is down about 4% and digital circulation is up; she described rightsizing, withdrawal partnerships, and rising licensing costs for ebooks and streaming services.

The director reported the FY27 state-aid application was submitted and met required thresholds; staff will perform a collection-policy review following passage of a state 'free expression' act signed Aug. 10, 2026, and the library is pursuing community outreach projects including a MAPC technical assistance engagement.

Trustees approved about $83,000 in supplemental spending for operations, FF&E and technology; an amendment to fund $20,000 from gift accounts (instead of trusts) passed by roll call after the unamended motion failed.

Director Amy Lannon told trustees a $5 million override will appear on the November ballot; without it the library faces structural deficits and may cut Sunday hours as a short'term, non'personnel'affecting measure to reduce costs.
