To provide continued library management, service system services and staff training for a total amount not to exceed 590,000 citywide. City manager. Our library director, Glenn Glenn Williams. There you go. Good evening, Vice Mayor Lowenthal and Members City Council. This is a Second Amendment to continue library management services for our library system. It takes care of all of our patron records, the acquisition funds, the materials purchases. It's the gateway for our online databases, our archives, our downloadable. In addition, it also works with other services we provide to the public, including wireless, the computer time management system that we're getting ready to. Implement and self-checkout. So all these things have to work together with the library management system. This is the Second Amendment and we ask that you approve this tonight. Thank you. Councilmember. Your Urunga. I brought one of these issues up before in the past in terms of being a sole source type of contract. So this company was to go under. Are we prepared to provide the services or go out with someone else? There's only one other major vendor who will provide the services that we need, and we've actually had that vendor before. If we were to move to another vendor, it would be we'd have to actually pay for the system itself and the maintenance. Tonight, what is before you is just the maintenance costs and we just don't have the funding to to do that. I just want to make sure that we're not at the. Mercy of a of a sole source agency where if for some reason or another they are not able to perform the services or meet the contract that we are securing, but we are able to provide. Yes. Yes, sir. There's been a motion by Councilmember Richardson and a second by Councilman Andrews. Councilwoman Mongo, yes. Would you be able to tell us. On the average if most libraries in the region. Utilize this system? Yes. Very many libraries in this region utilize innovative in embraces. Great. So there's some economies of scale that are available to us. I appreciate that. Thank you. Absolutely. Is there any member of the public that wishes to address Council on item 11? Seeing nonmembers, please cast your vote. Motion carries seven zero. Item 12.
