Once the MOE forms are received <br />from all libraries, State Library staff will calculate each library's total State Aid allocation and determine <br />final monthly payment amounts. Your library's actual State Aid allocation will depend on the following: <br />• Adjustments made once the certified budget from the General Assembly is received by the <br />Department of Natural and Cultural Resources. <br />• Adjustments made based on the most recent certified population and per capita income figures. <br />• Adjustments made if any libraries are unable to meet the maintenance of effort requirement. <br />• Adjustments made if any libraries are unable to match the full amount of their State Aid allocation. <br />• Adjustments made if any libraries had an unencumbered operational balance of more than 17 percent <br />of the previous year's operating receipts. <br />If I can be of any assistance as you begin work on the State Aid Application Packet, do not hesitate to <br />contact me at tanya.prokrym(&ncdcr.gov or 919-807-7415. <br />
