Audiobooks

Listening to audiobooks is an enjoyable activity for individuals or whole families together. Listening to books provides many benefits, including:

• Improves listening and comprehension skills
• Increases vocabulary
• Teaches the proper pronunciation of words
• Helps readers “see” a story by using imagination instead of illustrations
• Helps motivate children to read more by an author they’ve been introduced to through an audiobook

Come hear what’s in store for you!

HINSDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY FOUNDATION

_________________________________________________

ARTICLE ONE

ORGANIZATION

(a)  Name.

The name of the corporation (the “Foundation”) shall be the “HINSDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY FOUNDATION”

(b)  Offices.

The Foundation shall at all times maintain a registered office and registered agent in the State of Illinois.  The initial registered office of the Foundation shall be 20 E. Maple Street, Hinsdale, Illinois 60521.  The initial registered agent of the Foundation shall be the Director of the Hinsdale Public Library.  The Foundation may have other offices within the State of Illinois as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine, or the activities of the Foundation may require.

(c)  Mission.

The Foundation’s mission is to promote the development and growth of the Hinsdale Public Library.

(d) Purpose

The Foundation’s purpose is to serve as a fundraising arm and advocate of the Hinsdale Public Library (the “Library”) in support of high quality library services. It will seek, solicit, receive and allocate gifts, grants, endowments, bequests and memorials of money, property, or services to enhance and enrich the programs, activities, resources and facilities of the Library for which its Board of Trustees and staff have indicated a need.  The purposes for which the Foundation are organized are exclusively charitable, eleemosynary, benevolent, and educational purposes, including, for such purposes, the making of distributions to the Hinsdale Public Library, an organization that is exempt from tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law).

No part of the net earnings of the Foundation shall inure to the benefit of, or be distributable to its directors, officers, or other private persons, except that the Foundation shall be authorized and empowered to make payments and distributions in furtherance of the purposes set forth in these Bylaws. No substantial part of the activities of the Foundation shall be the carrying on of propaganda, or otherwise attempting to influence legislation, and the Foundation shall not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distribution of statements) any political campaign on behalf of any candidate for public office. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws, the Foundation shall not carry on any other activities not permitted to be carried on (a) by a corporation exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law) or (b) by a corporation, contributions to which are deductible under section 170(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law).

Upon the dissolution of the Foundation, the board of directors shall, after paying or making provision for the payment of all of the liabilities of the Foundation, dispose of all of the assets of the Foundation to the Hinsdale Public Library, or if it is not then in existence, to any other public library or libraries, or if there are none, to such organization or organizations organized and operated exclusively for educational purposes as shall at the time qualify as an exempt organization or organizations under Section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law) as the Board of Directors shall determine. Any such assets not so disposed of shall be disposed of by the Circuit Court of the county in which the principal office of the Foundation is then located, exclusively for such purposes or to such organization or organizations, as said court shall determine, which are organized and operated exclusively for such purposes.

The Foundation shall distribute its income for each tax year at such time and in such manner as not to become subject to the tax on undistributed income imposed by section 4942 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law). The Foundation shall not engage in any act of self‑dealing as defined in section 4941(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law), nor retain any excess business holdings as defined in section 4943(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue law), nor make any investments in such manner as to incur tax liability under section 4944 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law), nor make any taxable expenditures as defined in section 4945(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law).

The affairs of the Foundation shall be managed by its Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall have the power to accept or refuse to accept any gifts, grants, endowments, bequests and memorials which are proposed to be made to the Foundation based upon the discretion and judgment of the Board of Directors, taking into consideration the nature of any proposed gift, the conditions or restrictions placed upon the gift and the appropriateness of the gift to the purposes of the Foundation and the Library.  Additionally, the Board of Directors shall have the power to take any and all action permitted by law.

(b)  Number, Tenure and Qualifications.

The number of Directors shall be not less than 12 and not more than 16. Directors shall be elected annually by the Board of Directors at the annual meeting of the Board of Directors.  If the election of Directors shall not be held at such meeting, such election shall be held as soon thereafter as conveniently possible.

Each Director shall hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and shall have qualified or until his or her death or until he or she shall resign. Directors need not be residents of Illinois.

(c)  Annual Meeting.

An annual meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held during the month of May of each year, at such time and place as may be fixed by the Chairperson upon not less than 10 days notice, or if the Chairperson for any reason fails to so act, by any two (2) Directors.

(f)  Notice.

Notice of any special meeting of the Board of Directors shall be given at least five days prior thereto, or, if the removal of one or more directors will be discussed, at least ten days prior thereto, in either case by written notice to each Director at the address shown for such Director on the records of the Foundation. Notices of the Foundation may be mailed by United States mail, sent by a recognized overnight courier, sent by facsimile, or by electronic mail.  If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail or with a recognized overnight courier in a sealed envelope so addressed, with postage thereon prepaid. If notice is given by facsimile, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered upon transmission.  If notice is given by electronic mail, such notice shall be effective upon sending such electronic mail.  All notices to a Director shall be given at the last known address provided by such Director for the purpose of receiving notices or other communications.

Notice of any special meeting of the Board of Directors may be waived in writing signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice either before or after the time of the meeting. The attendance of a Director at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting, unless specifically required by law or by these Bylaws.

(g)  Quorum.

At all meetings of the Board of Directors a Majority of the total number of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, provided that if less than a majority of the Directors is present at said meeting, a majority of the Directors present may adjourn the meeting to another time without further notice.

(h)  Manner of Acting.

The act of a Majority of the Directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors, unless the act of a greater number is required by statute, the articles of incorporation or these Bylaws.

(i)  Action Without a Meeting.

Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the Directors of the Foundation, or any other action which may be taken at a meeting of Directors, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be approved either in writing or by electronic communication by a Majority of the Directors entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.

(j)  Attendance by Telephone.

Directors may participate in any meeting through the use of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

(k)  Vacancies.

Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors or any directorship to be filled by reason of an increase in the number of Directors shall be filled by the Board of Directors. A Director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve for the unexpired term of his or her predecessor.

(l)  Compensation.

Directors shall not receive any stated salaries for their services, although individual or group expenses will be reimbursed, if approved by the Board.

Additional nominations may be made by any director at the annual meeting.

(c)  Manner of Acting.

Each committee, to the extent provided in the resolution creating such committee and except as limited by law, the articles of incorporation or these Bylaws, shall have and exercise the authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the Foundation; but the designation of such committees and the delegation thereto of authority shall not operate to relieve the Board of Directors, or any individual Director, of any responsibility imposed upon it or him or her by law. Unless otherwise provided in the resolution creating a committee, such committee may select its chairman, fix the time and place of its meetings, specify what notice of meetings, if any, shall be given, and fix its rules of procedure which shall not be inconsistent with these Bylaws or with rules adopted by the Board of Directors. The act of a Majority of committee members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the committee.

(d)  Term of Office.

Each member of a committee shall continue as such until his or her successor is appointed, unless the committee shall be sooner terminated, or unless such member be removed from such committee, or unless such member shall cease to qualify as a member thereof.

Vacancies in the membership of any committee may be filled by appointments made in the same manner as provided in the case of the original appointments.

(f)    Quorum.

Unless otherwise provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors designating a committee, a Majority of the whole committee shall constitute a quorum and the act of a Majority of the members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the committee.

ARTICLE SEVEN

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

The Foundation will indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Foundation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, member of the Advisory Board, employee or agent of the Foundation, or who is or was serving at the request of the Foundation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Foundation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contenders or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Foundation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

The Foundation will indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Foundation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Foundation, or is or was serving at the request of the Foundation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Foundation, provided that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Foundation, unless, and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper.

To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Foundation has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Any indemnification under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Foundation only as authorized in the specific case, upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the Members entitled to vote, if any.

Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Foundation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, as authorized by the Board of Directors in the specific case, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount, unless it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is entitled to be indemnified by the Foundation as authorized in this Section.

The indemnification provided by this Section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any agreement, vote of disinterested Directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

The Foundation will purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, officer, employee or agent of the Foundation, or who is or was serving at the request of the Foundation as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Foundation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Section.

Books made into movies!  There are many new movies coming out based on famous books, but here are some titles that have been around for years.  So many books make a great basis for a movie, but how do they pan out?  Sometimes you love them, sometimes you don’t.  It is always worth finding out how your favorite book has panned out as a film.
