2002 BUDGET MESSAGE
The 2002 budget will assist the Weld Library District in achieving its vision and mission
by providing the necessary funding to support the addition of a new west Greeley branch
library, the renovation of the Centennial Park Branch, the possible relocation of the
Lincoln Park Branch during 2002, and the operating budgets for the District's six
Member Libraries. In addition, the budget will support the evolving roles and services of
the branch library system and the increased responsibilities of the administrative staff.
Overview
The new west Greeley Branch Library that was approved by voters in 1999 will be
completed and opened in the fall of 2002. After the new branch opens, the Centennial
Park Branch will close for renovation. The Lincoln Park Branch will house the new
Gates Computer Lab and will provide a wide array of computer training for the public.
The Lincoln Park Branch, which must vacate its current location in the City of Greeley's
Public Safety Building no later than December 31, 2003, may also be moved to a new
location during 2002. The search for a new location for the Lincoln Park Branch began
in 2001 and will continue until an adequate site is found.
The District's Technical Services Department will enhance its capability for cataloging
books and other materials by becoming a member of the Online Computer Library Center
(OCLC). OCLC is a nonprofit membership organization serving over 41,102 libraries in
76 countries and territories. OCLC's web-based database contains over 46 million
cataloging records. Membership in OCLC will decrease the District's need for
performing original cataloging on numerous materials and will provide high quality
bibliographic records and automatic verification of subject headings. The book
acquisitions function will be consolidated with the Technical Services Department to
improve the timeliness of ordering and the flow of materials through the department.
The separation of the District from Weld County's personnel and accounting departments
in 2001 necessitated adding a part-time Human Resources Manager and the outsourcing
of accounting services in 2001. In 2002 the accounting functions will be moved in-house
by creating an Accounting Department.
The Information Technology Department will add a second computer technician to
assume responsibility for the increasing number of public and staff PC's and the eleven
computer in the Gates Computer Lab. With the move to a new facility in the fall of 2002,
the phone system will upgraded and an intranet system for internal staff communications
will be added.

Budgetary Accounting Basis
The Weld Library District budgetary procedure uses Basis of Accounting, a procedure
where revenue and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported
in the financial statements. Basis of Accounting relates to the time of the measurements
made, regardless of the measurement focus applied.
The Weld Library District Fund utilizes the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under
this method revenue is recognized in the year in which it becomes both measurable and
available as net current assets.
Revenue susceptible to accrual, that is, measurable and available to finance the District's
operations or of a material amount and not received at the normal time of receipt,
primarily consists of property taxes assessed in 2001 and payable in 2002. Unbilled
charges for services are recorded in the appropriate funds at year end.
Expenditures are generally recorded when the related fund liability is incurred.
