[Publib] compensation for librarian-run book groups/programs?

[Diedre Conkling]

I believe that all library programing done by library staff should be on regular paid time.  This may require some shifting of schedules but is well worth it for the library as a whole.  We have to shift around schedules since overtime is not in our budget.  I wish it was but it is not.

I am curious as to how or if librarians are compensated for running 
book groups or other library programs outside of their day to day 
schedule.
Do you get a flat fee? Compensatory time? or a bagful of Maslow's 
higher needs - which may feel good but don't help make the car payment.

Thanks
