Since it began in 1984, the program has helped over 700 adults improve their basic
reading and writing skills through one-to-one tutoring by trained volunteers. In 1991
computer lab was added to increase the number of hours of instruction available to
learners and to develop literacy skills appropriate for the workplace of the 1990s.

Dear Mr. Lange:
I am pleased to inform you that the Carlsbad City Library Literacy Service has been awarded $23
under the provisions of Section 18733.2 (b)(6), based on your certification of $1 17,450 in local pi
and private funds budgeted for expenditure in the 1994/95 fiscal year to support your literacy progI
The enclosed signed budget page (CLSA Form-46) specifies the amounts approved for each bu
category to support the Plan of Service you have submitted. I enclose a master (for duplicatini
the Budget Change Request Form (CLSA Form-53) to be used if changes in the approved bu
should 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 am in less than six weeks. Please remember that these funds are for the current fiscal year and mu:
expended or encumbered by June 30, 1995.
I also enclose a spreadsheet summarizing the sources of local public and private funds each lib raised as the basis for these matching grants. I hope it will be useful to you as you begin
budgeting process for 1995196.
It is gratifying to see the success of local libraries in generating support for literacy during the CUI
California fiscal crisis! The total amount of funds raised locally for literacy programs in the matc
program has increased from $3.6 million in 1990/91 to $8 million this year.
I look forward to your quarterly reports. You should be collecting semi-annual CALPEP re]
during December. Development of the new CALPEP software has been slower than planned. I
should be shipped to you in early December, unless further delays develop.
Please contact A1 Bennett at 916-653-7743 if you have questions.
