2010 Operational Budget process

The Library is currently working through the budget process for 2010, as are other Service Units within the University. The Library Leadership Team (LLT), with input from the Branch Leadership Team (BLT), are considering a variety of strategies and options to be applied in 2010 in order for the Library to meet the opertional budget bottomline. LLT is presently working with the Management Accountant on the provisional 2010 Operational Budget. This budget must be submitted to Senior Management Team by 25th June. There are further processes that will take place after this date and the budget will then be finalised at the end of October. All Service Units have been informed by the Finance Director that their budgets are expected to decrease by 5% in 2010.

There will be another combined meeting of LLT and BLT on Thursday next week to further discuss the Library budget submission.
