[LIBRARYDIR] BAS funding RE: Feb 27 LLC meeting (Collaborate)

[Kanne, Lynn]

The Seattle District has drafted a document to establish standards of library support for BAS programs. The document may evolve as we use it in conversations about new BAS programs. I've attached a copy in its present form.

Mary, Green River has 2 IT BAS programs, and we receive $10,000 from the programs towards specialized databases.  The money comes directly from their budget line rather than being transferred to the library.  Our technology fee supports our online databases, and we are spending an additional $10,000 this year from the tech fee to get Books 24x7.  We'll evaluate to see if we continue next year.

We have other BAS programs waiting to see if they approved, and each one asks for different fund amounts for the library.  The nursing one asks for additional librarian hours because of anticipated heavy IL instruction.  Each time the funds will come from the program itself rather than the college.  We haven't been given any additional institution funds for collection or staffing.

Mary,

Highline has four BAS programs.
We were given one time funds of $17,000 the year before the programs launched for collection development. We spent most of it on specialized databases.
We have also been authorized to spent $7500 per year, per BAS program, on ongoing collection development. Again, most of this will be going to databases. These funds haven't been added to our library budget. They remain in the BAS budgets, and we will do expense transfers at the end of the fiscal year. I believe it is set up this way because the college intends the BAS programs to be self-supporting, so they want to track related costs within one budget.
We have not been given any support for staffing.

Could you all send me any information you have regarding support of library services ($$ and staff) that you have received when you have added, or are about to add a BAS program.....and could be talk about this ever so briefly at our meeting?

Thanks,

Mary

P.S.  Sorry for not giving you earlier notice.  This just came up today and the provost ask that I query you all about this.

We can start right at 9 a.m. and begin with the numbers - that makes sense to do anyway.

I see the alma cost discussion looks like it's going to happen sometime in the 9-1:30 slot.  That's a bit vague for me, because I've got a faculty training workshop I should attend running between 10-noon.  I can skip out if necessary, however, but obviously having a specific time would be nice.  So, in decreasing order of preference, let me plead for some help:

1.      Can we shuffle things so this discussion happens after noon?

2.      Or, ends before 10?

3.      Or, at some very specific time so I can return to my office from the classroom(s)?

Explanation: apparently a spreadsheet of costs was presented to Presidents recently.  Those numbers for GHC far exceeded anything I've heard of up to now.  As in, a few weeks ago it seemed $27,150 would be a likely number, but the President now thinks we are on the hook for $58,355.   I think I know the reasons for the discrepancies, and don't think we need to discuss on this list before Friday's meeting, but I'd certainly like to be there during the discussion.

So, can we pin things down?
