title
Request for approval of a renewal option with Harris County Public Library for library materials and literacy services provided to the Juvenile Probation Department for the Memorandum of Understanding for the period of March 1, 2023 - February 29, 2024, at a cost of $79,917.

Background and Discussion:
Currently, the Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (HCJPD) does not have a Library Specialist on
staff. The purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is to provide an ongoing cooperative
agreement between HCJPD and Harris County Public Library (HCPL) in relation to library services, library
materials, literacy workshops, reader services, and facilitating library and research education sessions to pre-
adjudicated and post¬ adjudicated youth at HCJPD locations. This MOU will provide a Library Specialist to the
HCJPD in collaboration with HCPL. This will enhance programming services with our juveniles in our field
units, schools and residential facilities.
Expected Impact:
HCPL will provide library development and engagement, research education sessions, and literacy workshops.
The expected impact will be more access to reading and educational materials for the juveniles served by
HCJPD. Both agencies endeavor to improve HCJPD’s education and residential services libraries as well as
develop education programs that develop academic interests.
