| contents | Treading Carefully Oder, Norman Budgets Libraries Library Administration Operating Expenses Library Materials Financial Support Library Automation Access to Computers Electronic Libraries This article presents the results of the 2008 "Library Journal" Budget Survey. Libraries that responded to the annual "Library Journal" Budget Survey are doing reasonably well, continuing the modest growth reported last year. However, a closer look suggests that budget increases may not go far enough. While 81% of all respondents projected an increase in total operating budgets, only 68% said they expected materials funding to go up. Still, the core numbers look stable, even though growth in revenue does not mean a library has become rich, just as some facing slowdowns remain well funded. |
