Re: Library van |
|
|
|
|
|
A van for use by the library was recently obtained at no cost from Human Resources. This van will be used for deliveries to homebound patrons, facilities errands, wireless lab visits, and staff travel. |
|
|
|
There is room in the garage to park the van, although the garage door will have to be retrofit; this is on the facilities project list for this summer. |
|
|
|
The use of the van will save money for the library; past payments to staff and volunteers for mileage, and the projected van operational costs are outlined below: |
