The special revenue section of the FY2027 tentative budget includes a Cox Innovation Center Grant and Library Grants Fund with estimated revenues of $25,000 and $40,000 respectively, along with corresponding expenditures in the special revenue expenditures schedule. These funds likely support innovation/technology space within the library and additional library programs or resources. No specific projects or vendors are named, implying the library has flexibility in selecting technology, furnishings, programming, and possibly digital services or makerspace equipment under these grants. Vendors providing library technology, public access computing, makerspace tools, digital literacy programming, and related services can help the town design and equip the Cox Innovation Center and deliver grant-aligned programming to maximize community impact.
The Cox Innovation Center Grant appears in both revenue and expenditure schedules, confirming planne...

Mill Valley’s Library budget for 2026-2027 and 2027-2028 allocates total expenditures of 3,941,195 and 3,972,716, including around 1.43–1.48 million each year for “Supplies, Services, and Other Expenses.” This likely covers collections, digital resources, programming, contracted services, and possibly technology or facility-related needs specific to library operations. The document does not itemize individual projects or contracts, but the size of the non-personnel budget suggests regular procurements for content, software, and program support. Vendors offering library systems, digital media, programming services, or related technology can see this as a planning-level signal to engage the library on upcoming needs for the 2026-28 period.
Library non-personnel spending remains relatively stable year-to-year, indicating ongoing program an...
The FY 2026-27 General Fund one-time items include a $90,000 allocation for a “Job Connect Plus Program” under Library Services. This points to a planned workforce development or job assistance initiative operated through the library system, potentially involving training, career coaching, or digital skills support. Since no implementation partner, platform, or curriculum is specified, the program design appears open. Workforce development organizations, training vendors, online learning platforms, and career services providers can engage Library Services to help define the program, offer content or technology, and structure measurable outcomes for the one-year funding period.
As a library-based initiative, this may emphasize accessibility, digital literacy, and community out...
CUNY’s Office of Library Services is renewing its systemwide contract with Empire Library Delivery Service to provide intercampus and interlibrary physical materials delivery. The single-source agreement will run from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2029, for an amount not to exceed 467,896, subject to state comptroller approval. Empire Library Delivery is described as the only provider operating a library delivery network of this scope in New York, shipping roughly 17,543 items in 2024–2025 among CUNY libraries and other institutions. For logistics, library technology, and resource‑sharing vendors, this defines the incumbent courier, the service volume, and term, which can inform complementary offerings (e.g., tracking systems, integration, or OLS‑level projects) and the timing of future competition.
Procured as a single-source renewal due to network uniqueness; subject to NYS Office of the State Co...
