Title
Substitute resolution relative to entering into the 2001-2003 Resource Library Agreement between the city of Milwaukee (CITY), Milwaukee Public Library (MPL), and the Milwaukee County Federated Library System (SYSTEM).
Analysis
This substitute resolution authorizes the proper CITY officers and MPL to enter into a Resource Library Agreement relative to providing library services in Milwaukee County.
Body
Whereas, the Milwaukee County Federated Library System was established to faciliate the orderly and efficient operation of cooperative library services throughout Milwaukee County; and
Whereas, in 1994 the CITY and MPL entered into a seven-year lease with the SYSTEM whereby the SYSTEM leases certain space within the MPL's Central Library; and
Whereas, the lease has been subsequently extended through December 31, 2005; and
Whereas, the CITY and MPL have previously entered into agreement with the SYSTEM relative to membership in the SYSTEM and for the MPL to act as a Resource Library for the SYSTEM; and
Whereas, the MPL has been a member of the SYSTEM since its formation in 1973; and
Whereas, it is beneficial to the CITY and MPL to enter into the 2001-2003 Resource Library Agreement with the SYSTEM; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the MPL and the proper CITY officers are hereby authorized to enter into the 2001-2003 Resource Library Agreement by the City Attorney's Office.
