Discussion: Councilor Ingalls stated that she appreciated having the “track changes” document because it made it very easy to see where they were making changes to the job description and the reason for the changes. She stated in reviewing the proposed job description that it was clear they were tightening up the language. She stated although the track-changes was a messy presentation that it was thorough; and therefore, she did not have any questions.
Councilor McGrattan noted that she was the Library Commission Liaison and that she was at the Commission’s meeting when they discussed the updates to the job description; and therefore, she did not have any questions.
Library Director Jennifer Smith provided some background noting that the work to update Administrative Assistant - Library began under former Library Director Gale Bradbury noting that it has been in-process for some time. She explained, as Councilor Ingalls mentioned, in addition to tightening up the language of the job description that the title for this position was being changed from Library Secretary - Technician to Administrative Assistant - Library.
