Revenue for September 2014 $ 29004.14 Expenditures for the same period $ 45821.36 Percentage of the budget spent year to date 85.06 LIBRARY • Library usage figures continue to reflect that the increase in offerings of services through technology is widely appreciated by patrons. • People counters at the branches indicated that the number of visits made in person to the Libraries in August, 2014, totaled 31,832, continuing evidence of the popularity of our onsite services. This was also shown by the circulation count of 30,642 items checked out in that time. Additionally, e-book circulation climbed to 1,671 checkouts, an increase of 51% from August of last year. 4 • While most of the branches closed out their summer program series in July, Key Largo finished with a bang in August, adding 394 more participants to the popular programming. • New Library cards brought 306 new patrons added to the roll, a slight increase over the previous month. These additions brought the total of Monroe County Library cardholders to 43,070, a significant percentage of the county population. The above numbers are proof that there is no "summer slump" in Library use in Monroe County. • Reference questions handled by staff via email, text, chat, phone, in-person and through social media, totaled 11,826, 14% above last year's figure-- another example of the still growing popularity of e-reference as well as onsite information resources. • The public access PC sessions recorded as provided to the public for the month remain consistently high, at 6,866 (another increase over the figures from a year ago), while the Wi-Fi usage was estimated at 2.549 (59% over the number a year ago), for a combined total of 9.415 customers using this resource; staff attribute this high usage to the lower cost and proliferation of portable devices, along with the increased bandwidth available to library patrons. Smartphones and other smaller devices are also being used to connect to the public wi-fi unobserved, driving the actual customer number even higher. Library staff have noticed steep increases in library users requiring assistance with e-government websites, such as food stamps and unemployment, as well as job seekers and housing hunters. • E-visits to the Library's online resources reached 553,095 page views, a sizeable 334% higher than last year. These resources include our Library website, online catalog and digital exhibit of historical images. • These statistics all continue to serve to refute two popular myths about library services: one, that libraries are used much less in the summertime than other times of the year, and two, that the libraries are losing their audience over all, due to electronic attractions beyond our walls. Our records and our staff will attest that this summer sizzled at the Library, onsite and off.

Solar Challenge The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $1.6 million Rooftop Solar Challenge II competitive award to Broward County and their team, of which Monroe County 36 participates, to make it easier for Floridians to obtain grid-tied solar installations. Go SOLAR Florida is one of eight recipients nationwide to receive the grant, which will be used over the next two and a half years to increase the use of and access to solar energy among residents and businesses by reducing market barriers, lowering non-hardware related installation costs and providing access to financing options.
