Dear Mr. Lange:
I m. pleased to inform you Lhat the Car!sbad City Library Literacy Service has been awarded $24.0;
under the provisions of Section 18733.2 (b)(6), based on your certification of $110,984 in local pub1
and private funds budgeted for expenditure in the 1992193 fiscal year to support your literacy progran
The enclosed signed budget page (CLSA Form 46) specifies the amounts approved for each budg
category to support the Plan of Service you have submitted. I enclose a master (for duplicating) of tk
Budget Change Request Form (CLSA Form-53) to be used if changes in the approved budget shou
become necessary. An instruction sheet is also enclosed.
I have initiated the State payment process. You should expect to receive a check for the above amour
in less than six weeks. Please remember that, even though the delay in completion of the State budgc
led to late announcement of your award, these funds are for the current fiscal year and must b
expended or encumbered by June 30, 1993.
I also enclose a spreadsheet summarizing the sources of local public and private funds each librar
raised as the basis for these matching grants. I hope it will be useful to you as you begin the budgetin
process for 1993194. The ratio of State to locally raised funds has improved because more librarie
are transitioning to less State support. I anticipate that this will be the case next year as well, so tha
the State match may again improve. We are still, however, far from the full dollar for dollar matcl
authorized by the California Library Literacy Services Act.
It is gratifying to see so many librarieq continging +iCr cffer this im~ortmt servic-, ring the Zilricil
California fiscal crisis! In hard financial times, literacy development becomes even more importan
to those whose opportunities are limited by their inability to read and write.
I look forward to your Quarterly and CALPEP semi-annual Learner progress reports.
Please contact A1 Bennett at 916-322-0377 if you have questions.
Sincerely, 6% €J% Gary E. Strong,
Chief Executive Officer, California Library Services Board
