Approve an appropriation adjustment accepting Federal Library Services and

$9,933 in revenue account (account no. 154-01-5361) and appropriate the
funds to expenditure accounts (account nos. 154-215-6221 and 154-215-6590)

DISCUSSION
Library Services and Technology Act of 1996 created the Public Library
Staff Education Program to provide tuition reimbursement for library
employees who are enrolled in a library science degree or certificate
program. Santa Ana Public Library has participated in the Public Library
Staff Education Program since its inception and has been awarded funding
for this year to reimburse three staff members currently enrolled in
Masters in Library Science programs for costs related to that education.
FISCAL IMPACT
The appropriation adjustment will enhance the library services revenue
account (account no. 154-01-5361) and the expenditure appropriation for the
Public Library Staff Education Program training and transportation and
indirect cost (account nos. 154-215-6221 and 154-215-6590).
