<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">It would depend on their pay status. If they’re professionals on staff, they’re hired to do their work and it’s up to them to adjust their workflow. Karen
Fischer’s thoughtful response earlier today speaks to this aspect. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">If they’re hourly on staff, I’d first look at what in their routine could be put aside to make room for time to prepare and if they had to put in extra hours
to make sure it got done after an adjustment was made, I’d ask them if they’d prefer time off/swap hours or money added for that pay period.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">I am wondering if any library has established guidelines for compensating library employees for preparing for booktalks -- specifically with regard to the time spent actually reading the book(s)
to be presented?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
