RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and Authorize the County Librarian, or designee, to relocate surplus furniture and shelving from the Pleasant Hill Library to the Contra Costa County Historical Society, the Friends of the Pleasant Hill Library, the City of Pleasant Hill and the Contra Costa County Clerk-Recorder's Office.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Usable furniture and shelving will be discarded and not continue to support library-related functions.

BACKGROUND:

On March 10, 2020 the Board of Supervisors approved the permanent closure of the Pleasant Hill Library at 1750 Oak Park Blvd. With the temporary relocation of Library services, the Library has assessed the furniture and shelving at the closed site, and determined they no longer have a need for it. They have identified several partner organizations whom may be interested in the items, and made arrangements accordingly.

County Surplus will remove furniture, fixtures and equipment (FF&E) of value, however other furniture and shelving identified for use can be donated to the following organizations; Contra Costa County Historical Society to house the recently transferred history collection, the Friends of the Pleasant Hill

Library for their temporary bookstore, the City of Pleasant Hill for the temporary library and the Contra Costa County Clerk-Recorder Office.
