Clearwater City Council will vote on two library book purchases totaling $408,000 at its next meeting.

The council will consider a $191,000 order from Ingram Library Services for materials covering October 2026 through June 2027, and a $217,000 order from the Pinellas Public Library Cooperative for October 2026 through September 2027. Both purchases are listed as consent agenda items, meaning they are expected to pass without discussion.

The acquisitions are authorized under Clearwater Code of Ordinances Section 2.563(1)(c), which governs piggyback and cooperative purchases. Council members reviewed the proposals during a work session Monday.
