<a name="OLE_LINK2"></a><a name="OLE_LINK1">“Costs rise while budgets and
our buying power shrink. And if we want to innovate, the incorporation of
new formats and technologies taxes our budgets even further. Librarians,
traditionally used to budgets with modest or no growth, now face steep
cuts. <br>
<br>
In the face of insufficient funding, libraries reduce hours, cut subscriptions,
step up their resource sharing efforts, engage in consortial buys, outsource
where possible, use staff more creatively, deal more aggressively with vendors,
boost fundraising efforts, mount advocacy campaigns, seek open source
solutions, seek input from focus groups to prioritize services, and even merge
with other libraries. . . <br>
