OLD BUSINESS

The Library Director reported that she had a conversation with legal council, Roy Hart regarding the request of Mr. Neinast requesting a change to the Library’s dress code to exclude the wearing of shoes in the Library. Mr. Hart would like to take more time to review the decision as pertains to the case of Neinast vs. Columbus Metropolitan Library. Mr. Hart believes that it makes sense that safety would be a legitimate concern. The Board will wait for a recommendation from legal council and Ms. Steiner will advise Mr. Neinast should he inquire about a decision.
