"Sources of Library Funding"

In the preliminary report, “the Library Planning Task Force identifies current sources of funding for Minnesota libraries. The report is submitted in response to 1995 legislation directing the task force to consider whether existing funding policies encourage libraries to work together in meeting Minnesota's growing information needs.”

In the final report, “the Library Planning Task Force makes its recommendations on the structures of library funding in Minnesota. The 1995 Minnesota Legislature requested a review of funding sources in the light of the state's growing interest in strategically addressing information technology development.”
