Library needs and to monitor the availability of additional revenues from the 1999/2000 State Budget.
On August 30, 1999, Alameda County Library submitted a proposal for library materials funding for
consideration by the Council. The proposal requested $33,426 for fiscal year 1999-2000. $30,000 will'be
used for the direct costs of the library materials and the additional $3,426 will be used to acquire, catalog,
and process the new materials at the current indirect cost rate of 11.42%. The County is also proposing the
City allocate $30,000 in Fiscal Year 2000-2001 to continue the update of materials. The balance of the

update and purchase of materials will be funded from the Public Facility Impact Fees when the ~
construction of the Library is completed. The attached Agreement is for Fiscal Year 1999/2000.
As proposed, the 1999'2000 funds would be used to update the Library's collection currently provided to
Dublin residents according to the following allocation:
· Adult (60%)
· Children's (30%)
· Young Adult (10%)
The purchase of new materials would include all formats such as print, videos, audio cassettes and CDs.
Once the materials have been procured, the Library will provide the City with a list of book titles and -list
price information as verification of materials purchased. The materials will also include nameplates,
identifying them as being purchased with funds from the City of Dublin.
The Agreement also includes a provision which guarantees that the City will receive credit in the amount
of $30,000 for materials purchased, should the City ever withdraw from the County Library system.

Additional appropriations from the 1999/2000 State Budget will be used to fund this purchase. The State

PROPOSAL FOR LIBRARY MATERIALS FUNDING
TO THE CITY OF DUBLIN
This is a proposal for supplemental funding for library materials over a two-year pedod.
The funds would help greatly with updating the collection currently being provided. This
enhanced collection will be heavily used during the next two years and the materials
purchased will be bdght, current, attractive and appealing. It will enable the staff to
weed the collection of out-of-date and worn out materials on the same topics.
It is proposed to request $30,000 for fiscal year 1999-2000 and $30,000 for fiscal year
2000-2001. Each year the amount provided would be spent on a percentage basis for
adult, children's and young adult materials. All .formats would be included such as print,
videos, audiocassettes, and' CDs.
Adult materials: 60% would be spent on purchasing popular adult materials, including
best sellers, parenting materials, titles about computers, business, job seeking tools
such as resume writing, travel, and medical information.
Children's materials: 30% would be spent on children's materials which would include
materials to support homework assignments, such as California missions, states of the
U,S., science fair experiments, as well as materials to encourage recreational reading.
Young adult materials: 10% would be used for young adult mater!als, especially to
support curriculum needs, but also on materials for preparing for college, personal
health, and especially the popular music CDs that teens eagerly seek.
A request for fiscal year 2001-2002 will be formulated based on a major, one-time only
build-up of the collection for the new building.
The County Library will acquire; catalog, and process the materials. There will be a
charge equivalent to the current indirect cost rate each year to partially offset these
costs; however, the County Library will absorb the major portion of these costs.
