Change Disabilities Futures (of Society) Interlibrary Loans Library Administration Library Collection Development Library Funding Library Policy Library Services Local Issues Public Libraries Reference Services Resource Allocation Shared Resources and Services State Federal Aid State Libraries State Programs This paper provides background on the Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA) program, describes the context for making decisions about future priorities, and presents proposals for changes in the Utah State Library Division policies, services, and funding.

For each of these services, clients, trends, specific issues and proposals are noted. A timetable from the spring of 1995 through the spring of 1997 and a response sheet are provided. An appendix presents a table of the fiscal year 1995 uses of the LSCA. (AEF)
