[quote="library patron-0292"]With a magnifying glass one needs to read the scant Library Board Meeting Agendas to find news & facts. To verify that data one then must wait MONTHS for the publication of the required Meeting Minutes of those meetings to be posted on Cranbury Public Library website. One may ask; why is the Library Board so secretive of it's plans & actions AND why does the TC permit so little transparency? Because Cranbury taxpayers do not hold either the TC or Library Board accountable for the large sums of tax money spent and\or squandered by the Library Board. Why do taxpayers accept such vague and opaque legal documents from local public entities? So here we are. "CRANBURY PUBLIC LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEETING MINUTES Thursday, October 13, 2022, 7:00 p.m Personnel – “Onboarding” – PThomsson announced the hiring of Brooke Basista as the new Cranbury Library Director. She will start on Monday, November 14th . She will also attend the Donor Gala with her husband on November 3rd. " from CPL website Congratulations to Ms Basista. Good Luck in your new role. However one will note that standard protocol of public employee job announcements also disclose the salary of the new hire, especially at the senior level of Director. The Library Board does not follow that protocol. It seems it is more important for taxpayers to know gala attendance. wake up citizens! it's happening with most municipal public institutions but it is especially egregious with this Library Board.[/quote]

To verify that data one then must wait MONTHS for the publication of the required Meeting Minutes of those meetings to be posted on Cranbury Public Library website. <br /> <br />One may ask; why is the Library Board so secretive of it's plans & actions AND why does the TC permit so little transparency? <br /> <br />Because Cranbury taxpayers do not hold either the TC or Library Board accountable for the large sums of tax money spent and\or squandered by the Library Board. Why do taxpayers accept such vague and opaque legal documents from local public entities? <br /> <br />So here we are. <br />"CRANBURY PUBLIC LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES <br />MEETING MINUTES <br />Thursday, October 13, 2022, 7:00 p.m <br />Personnel – “Onboarding” – PThomsson announced the hiring of Brooke Basista as the new Cranbury Library Director. She will start on Monday, November 14th . She will also attend the Donor Gala with her husband on November 3rd. " from CPL website <br /> <br />Congratulations to Ms Basista. Good Luck in your new role. <br /> <br />However one will note that standard protocol of public employee job announcements also disclose the salary of the new hire, especially at the senior level of Director. The Library Board does not follow that protocol. It seems it is more important for taxpayers to know gala attendance. <br /> <br />wake up citizens! it's happening with most municipal public institutions but it is especially egregious with this Library Board.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
