The fund raising is done by 85 percent of the library directors, 47 percent of the boards of trustees, 45 percent of the foundation boards, and 75 percent of the Friends groups. A list of library foundation contacts and Friends of the Library contacts is provided and the completed surveys of responding libraries are included. Appendices contain selected libraries' foundation bylaws, policies on use of private funds and general funds, and policies on gifts. (AEF) |
