Action:
Requirements Which Must be Met By Libraries Serving a Population of Less than 5,000 in Order to Receive State Grants-in-Aid [17 VAC 15 90]
Action 6428
[Withdrawn 3/7/2024]
General Information
| Action Summary |
In order to receive their state aid funding allocation each year, all public libraries in Virginia are required to submit a five-year plan, the charter/resolution under which they are organized, by-laws of the board of trustees, a list of trustees, an annual budget, and a written statement of policy covering such items as service, personnel, and maintenance of book collections and other materials. Smaller libraries, in particular, find it difficult to meet the five-year plan requirement due to limited staff and funds. The requirement will be reviewed and proposed changes will be vetted with the Library Board by the end of Fiscal Year 2023. Changes approved by Library Board will be pursued through the Virginia Regulatory process in Fiscal Year 2024.
Public libraries serving smaller populations often have difficulty meeting the reporting standards required to receive their allocation of state aid funding. The Library of Virginia would like to find easier, alternate ways for even the smallest library with limited staffing and funds to meet the reporting requirements to receive state aid. |
