Is your library facing budget issues for FY27? Are you facing a municipal override vote this spring, and want to know how a failed override and reduced budget will affect your library's State Aid and Certification? 

In this workshop, we'll review the FY27 MAR (Municipal Appropriation Requirement), the MAR Waiver Application process if your budget does not meet the MAR, and how you can make your case to your municipalities for a stable and funded library budget. We'll go over what State Aid Certification means, what is lost if a library budget is drastically cut, and have time for individual questions at the end. 

Workshop information (meeting ID, etc.) will be emailed to registered participants as the date of the session approaches.

Please be sure to enter your email address accurately, otherwise you will not receive the confirmation, meeting information or reminder.
