This phase was launched with a Roadshow led by our Chief Administrative Officer and Business Process Consultant Senior, where they engaged with 40 different library work groups. The goal of the Roadshow was to educate staff about the Strategic Plan in a more intimate setting, fostering focused discussions and allowing for questions. Moving forward, the implementation phase will focus on identifying key data points, establishing systems, creating new policies and procedures, and collecting data to analyze during the baseline year. City Council Action On November 21, 2024, City Council authorized the negotiation and execution of an amendment to a contract for continued wireless communication services and equipment for all City departments with T-Mobile USA Inc., to increase the amount by $1,275,000 for a revised total contract amount not to exceed $1,600,000. Austin Public Library was added to the contract in order to secure the purchase of 500 T- Mobile 5G Inseego Wi-Fi Hotspots, to be added to the Library’s collection for circulation to the public. Our current collection of circulating Wi-Fi Hotspots from Moxee are reaching their end of life, and increased demand on the limited supply has resulted in long waits for the devices. The new Hotspots will be ready for circulation to the public beginning in January 2025. No upcoming scheduled council items have direct Library impact. Legislative Bills Bill pre-filing for the 89th Texas Legislature began on November 12, 2024.
