SUBJECT: REFERRAL TO INTERNAL OPERATIONS COMMITTEE OF RE-AUTHORIZATION OF
THE COUNTY LIBRARY COMMISSION
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1 . REFER to the Internal Operations Committee the question of
whether to re-authorize the County Library Commission and, if
so, for what period of time.
2 . AUTHORIZE the Internal Operations Committee to consult as
necessary with the Contra Costa Mayors ' Conference and the
City/County Relations Committee regarding their wishes
regarding re-authorizing the County Library Commission and
request that they return a recommendation to the Board of
Supervisors prior to March 15, 1995 .
BACKGROUND:
The County Librarian has pointed out that the sunset date for the
County Library Commission is March 15, 1995 . The existence of the
Commission was continued for one year this past spring by action of
the Board of Supervisors and the Mayors ' Conference, which jointly
created the Library Commission.
In view of the substantial policy issues which confront the County
Library currently and the discussions which have been undertaken
over the past year about the organization and governance of the
County Library, it is suggested that it might be appropriate for
the Internal Operations Committee to undertake the question of the
re-authorization of the County Library Commission and return with
a recommendation by the current sunset date of March 15, 1995 .

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY LIBRARY
INTER-OFFICE MEMO
DATE: September 12, 1994
TO: Claude Van Marter, Assistant County Administrator
FROM: Anne Marie Gold, County Librarian
SUBJECT: Library Commission re-authorization
In response to your memo of September 7, 1994 the Internal Operations Committee might want
to consider the re-authorization of the Library Commission. The current Library Commission
authorization expires March 14, 1995. While the initial formation of the Library Commission
was developed by the Internal Operations Committee in 1990-91, the subsequent reauthorizations
of the Library Commission in 1993 and 1994 did not involve the Internal Operations Committee.
In view of the continuing policy issues regarding the library, a review and recommendation from
this committee regarding the commission might be appropriate.
