Textbox 7.3: Steps in Planning the Annual Library Budget

Keep notes, including a “wish list” during the year in preparation.

Six to nine months prior to formal budget adoption, begin drafting a library budget. Supervisors may seek input from LSS for recommendation or LSS can suggest materials, equipment, and maintenance needs they encounter on the job.

Library director obtains guidelines from his or her supervisor to create one or more budgets: a percentage increase budget, a percentage decrease budget, or a zero-increase budget.

LSS can help and support supervisors by researching costs, vendors, and other information for accurate pricing.Library director meets with supervisor frequently to develop the budget, answer questions, and make revisions.

Five to six months prior to formal budget adoption, library director finalizes budget and presents it to library board, principal, or direct supervisor for approval. In a large institution, the library budget is incorporated as a function or department in the overall budget document.
