    Dear ACRL Budget & Finance Committee,

     

    Please see the attached draft FY24 Budget Assumptions for ACRL & Choice to review in advance of your November 7 FY24 Assumptions Virtual Meeting. During the meeting, the Committee will have the opportunity to discuss the assumptions, make recommendations, and share the economic climate on campus and higher education.

     

    After the Committee reviews and makes recommendations on the FY24 assumptions, ACRL staff will use these to develop the preliminary FY24 budget, which will be presented to the ACRL Board and Budget & Finance Committee in January/February 2023. Typically, the ACRL Board and B&F Committee takes action on the final budget in June, but this has been delayed to August during the pandemic. More information on the current budget process and timeline can be found on the ACRL Board Manual.

     

    At Annual 2022, as part of the ALA Operating Agreement Work Group Report final report, the ALA Executive Board approved for an Implementation Task Force that is "to develop a new budget process that consists of ALA management including Division Executive Directors and ALA division budget leaders to outline a new budget process. This process should be developed during FY23-24 with a report to the Executive Board, Division Boards, and Council. The goal would be to implement a new process for FY25." Jay has been involved in the new budget process discussions and he can report out on any updates during the November 7 Assumptions meeting.

     

    Look forward to seeing you next week.

     

    Best,

    Allison
