Dear, Ms. Duong:
;t. SIt,!I.: COUR ft�tt:at
Happy New Year! I am writing to tell you that two libraries unfortunately have had to eliminate
their literacy programs, leaving some additional funds to be distributed. Because your library has
been significantly impacted by the current funding crisis, you are eligible to receive some of
these funds.
The amount we would like to award you as a one-time augmentation is $3,537. This amount was
based on the number of adult learners you served in 2011/12. Funds available were pro -rated
based on total adults served by eligible programs.
Here's what we need you to do now:
1. Sign and return the attached Claim Form for the one-time augmentation amount. You
should receive the funds within six weeks of submitting your claim form. All of these
funds must be expended or encumbered by June 30, 2013. If you feel that you will be
unable to spend or encumber some or all of these funds by that deadline, please let us
know immediately, so that we can distribute them to another program in need.
2. This additional funding will require a revision of your current 2012/13 revised budget.
We have attached a form which includes the one-time only amount in a special line on
the "Revised Revenue" form (just under "California Library Literacy Services"). Please
add those dollars to your budget by showing where they will be expended on the
"Revised Budget" form, and return both forms to andrea.freeland@library.ca.gov. We
won't act on your claim form until this revised budget is received.
3. Your application for the 2013/14 fiscal year will be due in May. My staff will notify you
by e-mail when to submit it.
4. While we usually ask you to report twice each fiscal year — we are eliminating the mid-
year report this year (usually due in February). You will provide a final report of service
and volunteer statistics, budget expenditures and roles and goals on the complete 2012/13
fiscal year in August.
