The Honorable Carl E. Heastie Speaker, NYS Assembly LOB Room 522 Albany, New York 12248 Dear Speaker Heastie:

I have been privileged to serve as Chair of the Standing Committee on Libraries and Education Technology for the 2015 legislative session. I am honored to present the Committee’s Annual Report.

As you can see from our report, the Committee has endeavored to reflect and implement the Assembly Majority’s commitment to provide the support and assistance needed to ensure that New York’s libraries are equipped to meet the diverse needs of New York’s diverse community.

As you are aware, the 2015-16 state budget provided $91.62 million in state aid

for libraries and library systems – an increase of $5 million over the 2014-15 allocation of $86.62 million. The budget also maintained funding for the Conservation and Preservation Program and the Talking Book and Braille Library totaling $693,000. Finally, the budget provided $14 million in funding to continue statewide library capital projects for the ninth consecutive year.

Our State’s libraries offer a wide range of services. They have become modern super-community centers. They provide a wealth of print and electronic resources. They provide a central location for those who seek information, those who seek culture or recreation, and those who seek social interaction with other members of their community. New York libraries employ highly skilled staff to support their services.

The Assembly Majority has made it a priority to secure the funding necessary to

help libraries maintain these services. I look forward to the upcoming session as we continue to work to ensure that our libraries get the support that they need.

I thank the members of the Committee for their commitment and dedication. I thank you for your unwavering support of the Committee’s agenda Finally, I thank you for showing confidence in me by giving me the opportunity

to lead this Committee.

I look forward to working with you and the rest of my colleagues to continue to support New York’s library community.

Sincerely,

Thomas J. Abinanti Chair, Assembly Standing Committee on Libraries and Education Technology

I. COMMITTEE JURISDICTION The Libraries and Education Technology Committee, created in 1997, has jurisdiction over legislation affecting public, academic, school and private libraries. Its jurisdiction includes legislation affecting the administration and funding of libraries and library systems across New York State.

The Committee has endeavored to assist libraries to sustain and upgrade their infrastructure and staff resources. The Committee has attempted to assist libraries to meet the challenges of the information age and provide New Yorkers access to technological advances through the resources of New York’s vast library community.

New York State has over 7,000 libraries – some among the largest and the best in the country. Six of the forty largest libraries in the United States are in New York, more than any other state. New York's largest library, the New York Public Library, contains over ten million volumes and is among the top research institutions in the world.

Libraries have become a modern super-community center. Libraries are an

integral part of the education and cultural development of New Yorkers. New York libraries provide a wealth of print and electronic resources that offer individuals and communities access to every type of information. Today libraries provide a central location for those who seek information, those who seek recreation or those who seek social interaction with members of their community.

II. PROVIDING LIBRARIES WITH NECESSARY RESOURCES

New York State libraries have demonstrated that they can meet the diverse needs of very diverse populations. However, public, academic and school libraries need adequate resources and reliable funding sources.

The Committee’s efforts and commitment to providing libraries with sufficient resources reflects the Assembly’s longstanding support for libraries and the educational, economic and cultural roles they play in their communities.

Funding for New York’s libraries has been and continues to be a priority. To meet their funding needs, Chapter 917 of 1990 was enacted to establish a formula to provide stable funding for libraries and library systems based on census population numbers.

The 2015-16 state budget provided $91.62 million in state aid for libraries and library systems – an increase of $5 million over the 2014-15 budget allocation of $86.62 million. Despite this significant increase, 2015 state aid is still less than previous highs.

The approved budget also maintained funding for the Conservation and Preservation Program and the Talking Book and Braille Library totaling at $693,000. Finally, the budget provided $14 million in capital funding for the ninth consecutive year. These construction funds are crucial, as nearly half of the state’s library buildings are over 60 years old.

In addition, the Committee advanced some significant local legislation on behalf

of New York’s library community.

Local library legislation A. 3471, Lentol; Chapter 111 of 2015 This law corrects , in Public Authorities’ Law, the name of the Queens Public Library to read as Queens Borough Public Library.

A.7754-A, Brindisi; Chapter 389 of 2105 This law allows trustees of public libraries to serve either a three or five year term of office. Additionally, any Cooperative Library that changes the length of the term of office of trustees shall apply to the Board of Regents for an amendment to the charter of the Cooperative Library System.

A.5251, Ra; Chapter 467 of 2015 This law authorizes the New York State Dormitory Authority to provide financing assistance to the Gold Coast Public Library. A.6224, Magee; Chapter 544 of 2015 This law places the Oneida Public Library on the list of libraries eligible for financing assistance from the dormitory authority. Additionally, the bill provides clarification of how the City and multiple towns collect taxes on behalf of the library district for the purposes of capital improvements. A.7567, Tenney; Chapter 494 of 2015 This law changes the residency requirement for members elected to the Wallkill Public Library board of trustees and requires them to reside with the Wallkill Public Library District.

A.8047, Skartados; Passed Assembly, Veto 187 This bill would clarify how trustees will be elected to the Greater Poughkeepsie Library board.

III. IMPROVING AND EXPANDING NEW YORK STATE LIBRARIES

New York State is the home to hundreds of public, school, association and private libraries. It has 23 public library systems, and nine reference and research library systems. It has 41 school library systems serving over 1,400 school libraries in elementary and secondary schools. It has hundreds of private libraries. From the largest library to the smallest community-based book exchange, all of New York’s libraries play a vital role in our communities. The Committee advanced several important measures in 2015 designed to expand and improve libraries throughout New York State. Aid for Public Libraries A.7621, Abinanti; Reported to Ways and Means This bill would require the Empire State Development Corporation, in consultation with the State Education Department, to conduct a study on the economic impact of public libraries and public library systems. A.7626-A, Abinanti; Chapter 459 of 2015 This law authorizes and directs the Commissioner of the State Education Department to study and develop a comprehensive plan for increasing access to and lending of electronic books. A.8168, Abinanti; Chapter 480 of 2015 This law includes the installation and infrastructure of broadband services within the scope of construction projects that are eligible for State aid.

IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS

Funding Public Libraries in New York State

The 2015-16 budget provided $91.62 million in state aid for libraries and library systems -- a $5 million or 5.7% increase over the 2014-15 budget allocation of $86.62 million. In addition the budget allocated $14 million in capital funding for the ninth consecutive year.

The Committee conducted a public hearing on November 6, 2015 at The New York Public Library, Stephen A. Schwarzman Building -- Celeste Auditorium. The hearing sought to assess the impact of the 2015-16 State budget on New York State public libraries and library systems. The Committee heard testimony about the programs and services that libraries provide in their communities. The Committee heard that libraries extensively use collaboration and technology to better leverage their resources. The Committee also heard testimony about the importance of future funding to meet the projected operating and capital needs of our public libraries and library systems.

The hearing documented that libraries and library systems are a model of efficiency because of their effective use of collaboration and modern technology. The hearing also documented the need for increased state investment in our libraries and library systems.

The Committee heard testimony from a broad spectrum of the library community: Bernard Margolis, Assistant Commissioner for Libraries and Acting State Librarian, State Education Department; Claudia Depkin, Chairperson,Regents Advisory Council on Libraries; Mike Neppl, Director of Government Relations and Advocacy, New York Library Association; David Wolock, Executive Vice President External Affairs, Brooklyn Public Library; George Mihalteses, Vice President for Government and Community Affairs, New York Public Library; Ms. Bridget Quinn-Carey, Interim President and CEO, Queens Library; Nate Hill, Director, Metro New York Library Counsel; Robert Hubsher, Excutive Director, Ramapo Catskill Library System; Rebekkah Smith Aldrich, Coordinator for Library Sustainability, Mid-Hudson Library System; Terry Kirchner, Director, Westchester Library System; Bernadette (Brie) Harrison, Finance Director, Rochester Public Library; Charles Warren, President, Committee to Save NYPL; Madeline Sinor, Parent/NYC Resident; and Yuki Endo, Member, Citizens Defending Libraries.

V. COMMITTEE OUTLOOK FOR 2016 The Committee’s top priorities in the 2016 legislative session will be the following.

First, maintain and increase Aid to Public Libraries. Despite a significant increase, 2015 state aid is still less than previous highs.

Second, maintain and increase statewide library construction aid. With approximately half of New York’s public library buildings 60 or more years old, it is essential to provide libraries with adequate resources.

Third, advance local legislation important to the library community. With an ever-increasing, diverse New York State population, we must provide each library with the flexibility it needs to properly serve its community.
