FY2013 State Aid to Public Libraries Budget Tips

As you enter into preparations for submission of your FY2013 budgets to municipal officials, here are a few activities to keep in mind:

  • Calculate your library’s FY2013 Municipal Appropriation Requirement (MAR)
  • Calculate your library’s Materials Expenditure requirement
  • Review all of the requirements for State Aid to Public Libraries
  • Review the State Aid to Public Libraries FY2013 Administrative Policies
  • If any line items in your library appropriation from the city/town have been moved to another town department (e.g., utilities are no longer in the town’s appropriation to the library) contact Dianne Carty for help adjusting your requirement.

Any and all questions are welcomed.
