- The Effect of State and Federal Grants on Local Library Funding Support: A Statistical Analysis of Six Rural Arizona Counties. Rorvig, Mark Evan County Libraries Federal Aid Financial Support Grants Library Services Public Libraries Research Methodology State Aid Statistical Analysis Statistical Data Six Arizona county libraries were chosen to participate in a study to investigate the effect of grants on local library funding support. The criteria set for choice of these libraries were: (1) the county library must be the strongest library in the county, (2) the library must have been chartered as a county library for at least three years prior to the 1970 census, (3) the county must be non-urban. Data are presented for local funding, federal and state grants, population, and assessed valuation for the fiscal years 70-71 through 75-76. Results of the analysis show that there is a high correlation between grant giving and local funding growth, while population growth bears no relationship to local funding growth. Tables and appendices are included. (AP)
