Budget and Supplies

Department Heads no longer are asked to submit budget requests for the next fiscal year, but they do submit requests for “new” services, equipment, supplies. The Head Cataloger is responsible fro the SOLINET/OCLC account with the exception of electronic resources. Needs for the next fiscal year are determined and submitted to the Associate Director, who authorizes the amount to request on an invoice from SOLINET for OCLC services. Monthly statements show additions/disbursements in the pre-payment account.

Head of the Cataloging Department orders all necessary supplies, such as spine labels, label protectors, barcodes, detection devices, ink pads, and ownership stamps. Barcodes and detection strips are ordered for the entire library.
