  • Wisconsin Library Service Record. 1993. Zimmerman, Al Fay, Guy Academic Libraries Federal Aid Financial Support Higher Education Income Library Collections Library Expenditures Library Personnel Library Services Library Statistics Public Libraries Resource Allocation Special Libraries State Aid Tables (Data) This compilation presents statistics about Wisconsin's libraries. Information on public library collections, finances, and staff is given for the state as a whole and by community. A map indicates the locations of the state's libraries, and directories provide addresses and names of library directors. In 1993 there were 380 public libraries in Wisconsin in 17 public library systems. These libraries served five million state residents. Library support is primarily a local responsibility, but state aid did account for about 10.7% of the $121.8 million 1993 operating income, and federal aid was about 0.8%. Local tax support for public libraries varies considerably, ranging from $1 per capita to over $150. System and public library staff full-time equivalents increased from 2,654.3 in 1992 to 2,730.5 in 1993. The total number of volumes remained stable in 1993, but video and audio recordings increased statewide. A directory and some summary statistics are given for academic libraries and special library services in Wisconsin, listed by community. (SLD)
