Bryant Endowment funds are leveraged for grant
funding. We are currently fully leveraged.
Director, Digital Library Center with assistance of co-PI,
grant coordinator, and Business Services accounting
officers.
They are requested on an annual basis and from our
temporary services budget and are augmented with
grants and gifts.
Head of Special Collections
The salary of the 0.5 FTE librarian is covered by the
library budget.
Depends on the project.
The work is project-based. Ideally, all projects map
closely to the library’s and university’s strategic plan. For
each project, budget decisions are made, including the
acceptable amount of in-kind contributions, hiring of
student assistants, and hardware/software acquisition.
There is always an identified project leader, who may or
may not be the Head, Library Systems. The leader may
be a clearly identified PI in a grant or it may be a leader
designated by a library unit head (for example, for a
donor project). That person manages the budget and
staff commitments for the project.
Head, Library Systems, but again, there is a great deal
of decentralization.
There are 12 staff in the e-Reserves unit. They were
reformed from reserve and by transfers from other
areas two years ago. Monitoring of expenditures is
done by the supervisor of e-Reserves, and then Head
of Information Resources for costs charged to the
Acquisitions Budget for copyright, out-sourcing for
contract work, etc.
