RECOMMENDED ACTION
Amend the contract with Card Meter Systems Inc. to increase the aggregate
limit by $10,000 for the Library media equipment program for an annual
amount not to exceed $20,000.
DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Public Library provides adult and youth programs to 134,000
patrons annually. In addition to lending over 400,000 books, magazines and
CD/DVDs each year, the library also offers adult and youth computer labs,
microfilmed archived newspapers, extensive online databases and reference
resources, information services and support for adults and youth, and story
time for children.
The Library established a patron pay-per-use media equipment rental program
in 2000, which included copiers in the Central Library, Newhope Learning
Center and the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency operated
McFadden Learning Center. All copiers, microfilm reader/printers and
computer printers are operated via coin or debit card. The Library funds
the program utilizing the revenue from public use. When revenue falls
short of the required monthly minimum rental fee, the Library pays the
balance.
Card Meter Systems Inc. is terminating their equipment rental program.
Staff requests approval to increase the aggregate limit for Card Meter
Systems Inc. to provide uninterrupted equipment use and service while a new
contract is solicited.
