AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the Library Director to Accept Zip Books Grant
Funding ($5,000) from the California State Library and Appropriating Funds
($5,000)
MEETING DATE: January 05, 2022
PREPARED BY: Library Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution accepting Zip Books grant funding ($5,000)
from the California State Library and appropriating funds
($5,000)
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On November 01, 2021 the Library Director submitted a
proposal for Zipbooks funding for $5000 through the
California State Library (Refer to grant narrative- Exhibit A).
The Zip Books program is an alternative model for interlibrary loan service that bridges the gaps between
a library's patron request service, a normal acquisitions process, and an outreach/home delivery service.
Based on a project called "Zip Books—Digital Library of Northern California," conducted by the Butte,
Shasta, and Humboldt County Libraries under a FY 2011/12 LSTA grant from the California State Library,
the Zip Books program is currently supported with California Library Services Act funds from the state of
California. The patron is billed for the replacement cost of the item if it is not returned.
Under the Zip Books program, patrons request books that the library does not own. The library then
orders the book from Amazon, and the book is shipped directly to the patron's home. When the patron is
finished with the book, the book is returned to the library and added to the collection.
The Library Director notified the Library Board of Trustees at the regular meeting on November 08, 2021.
On December 06,2021, the State Library awarded to the Lodi Public Library (Refer to grant award
packet -Exhibit B).
FISCAL IMPACT: $5000 additional dollars for FY 2021-2022 for collections.
There is no net impact to the General Fund.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Revenue appropriation account code is 12090000.56450
and expenditure appropriation in account code
n 12090000.72308

Exhibit A- Grant Narrative
We are interested in Zip Books because of the success in patron experience and customer service that
Zip books provides. Zip books fits directly into our patron driven acquisitions and eliminates the
turnaround time and process for patrons to request purchases for the collection. They can now have us
purchase the item immediately with the Zip book funds and enjoy the book prior to evaluating whether or
not to add the book to our collection.
PROCESS: Patrons review ordering criteria and if met, request a zip book via fillable request form
online/in branch. Staff access the lodizipbooks@lodi.gov email to fill requests. The City of Lodi has an
Amazon Prime account and orders will be made via Cal Card. Requests are filled and a confirmation
email is sent to the patron with expected deliver date and full instructions. An item record is created on
the fly and upon return is fully cataloged, if being added to the collection. If it is not, the item will be
offered via email to the other participating libraries. If no system requests it then it will be donated to the
Friends group.
TIMELINE: Policies and procedures, accounting training, Amazon Prime Account -Done. Online and
paper request form, Zip books email, team prep and briefing- by November 15th. Marketing and addition
to the website- upon confirmation of award.
Our model is patron driven acquisitions at the Lodi library. Due to major weeding performed in 2020, we
have the capacity to shelve the Zip books requested by patrons. All Zip books will be added with the
caveat that they will be checked within a year for additional circulation. To encourage circulation, we will
have a "community picks" display so Lodians can see what their neighbors requested and check out the
item, too. The display will include short reviews from the patron that ordered it to inspire curiosity.
The principles of EDI will drive our implementation and evaluation, by filling all requests that meet the
criteria. Ordering criteria is limited to type of item and cost and number of items ordered per month.
Genre and content will not be a determining factor (Equity). Furthermore, we will publicly display the
diversity in our city by displaying their picks without bias and partiality (Diversity). Everyone with a Lodi
library card is eligible to use the Zip books program (Inclusion).
Lodi library is applying for the first time. We are requesting $5,000. Thank you for your consideration!

carry out the requirements as noted above.
7. Effectiveness of Agreement: This Agreement is of no force or effect until signed by both

nonperformance is caused by an act of God, weather, accident, labor strike, fire,
explosion, riot, war, rebellion, sabotage, flood, or other contingencies unforeseen by

and beyond the reasonable control of such party.

forces are at play, such as when multiple vendors are invited to compete for an entity's

business and the entity chooses the lowest of the resulting bids. "Self-dealing" is
involved where an individual or entity is obligated to act as a trustee or fiduciary, as

parties that the grant application and the timeline included therein are part of the
Agreement.

rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
California State Library. No delay or omission on the part of California State Library in
exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver
by California State Library of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or
constitute a waiver of California State Library's right otherwise to demand strict
compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior
waiver by California State Library, nor any course of dealing between California State
Library and Grantee, shall constitute a waiver of any of California State Library's rights or
of any of grantee's obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of
California State Library is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent
by California State Library in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to
subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of California State Library.
48. Work Products: Grantee shall provide California State Library with copies of all final
products identified in the Work Plan and Application. Grantee shall also provide the
