The Governor' Budget for the FY2014-2015 Biennium was released today and reflects a 5.53% reduction when compared to the FY13 appropriation. As you may recall, that budget (our current budget) has been reduced through recessions and reductions.
In many cases those budget recessions and reductions are carried into the next two years. Additionally, and significantly, the proposed budget calls for a $200,000 reduction in Connecticard Payments in each of the next two years. Below I have outlined the budget reductions. For clarity I have referred to line items by the terms you are most familiar with and not the Statewide Library Programs.

The Governor is proposing a total of $10,000,000 in public library construction funding for non-distressed communities. This is the first new funding in several years and would provide $5 million in each year beginning with the grant cycle this Fall.
The State Library will make its budget presentation to the Appropriations, Thursday, February 21 from 2:30-3:00 in Room 2D of the Legislative Office Building. The Public Hearing will begin at 6:00 pm on the 21st in Room 2C of the LOB.
