Introduction

This report contains data on state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia for state

fiscal year (FY) 1999.1 The data were collected through the State Library Agencies Survey, the product of a

cooperative effort between the Chief Officers of State Library Agencies (COSLA), the U.S. National

Commission on Libraries and Information Science (NCLIS), the National Center for Education Statistics

(NCES), and the U.S. Census Bureau. The FY 1999 StLA Survey is the sixth in the series.

Background

A state library agency (StLA) is the official agency of a state that is charged by state law with the extension

and development of public library services throughout the state and which has adequate authority under

state law to administer state plans in accordance with the provisions of the Library Services and Technology

Act (LSTA) (P.L. 104-208). Beyond these two roles, StLAs vary greatly. They are located in various

departments of state government and report to different authorities. They are involved in various ways in

the development and operation of electronic information networks. They provide different types of services

to different types of libraries. StLAs are increasingly receiving broader legislative mandates affecting

libraries of all types in the states (i.e., public, academic, school, special, and library systems). StLAs provide

important reference and information services to state governments and administer the state libraries and

special operations such as state archives, libraries for the blind and physically handicapped, and the State

Center for the Book.2 The StLA may also function as the state's public library at large, providing library

services to the general public. This report provides information on the range of roles played by StLAs and

the various combinations of fiscal, human, and informational resources invested in such work. 

Purpose of Survey

The purpose of the StLA Survey is to provide state and federal policymakers, researchers, and other

interested users with descriptive information about StLAs. The data collected are useful to (1) Chief

Officers of StLAs, (2) policy makers in the executive and legislative branches of Federal and state

governments, (3) government and library administrators at Federal, state, and local levels, (4) the American

Library Association and its members or customers, and (5) library and public policy researchers. The survey

asks each StLA about the kinds of services it provides, its staffing practices, its collections, income and

expenditures, and more. Decision-makers use the NCES survey to obtain information about services and

fiscal practices.

The StLA Survey collects data on StLA services and financial assistance to public, academic, and school

libraries, and to library systems. When added to the data collected through the NCES surveys of public,

academic, and school libraries, and library cooperatives,3 these data help complete the national picture of

library service.

Congressional Authorization

The StLA Survey is conducted in compliance with the NCES mission “to collect, analyze, and disseminate

statistics and other information related to education in the United States and in other nations, including ...

Highlights

Governance

♦ Nearly all state library agencies (47 states and the District of Columbia) are located in the executive

branch of government. Of these, almost two-thirds are part of a larger agency, most commonly the

state department of education. In three states (Arizona, Michigan, and Tennessee), the agency is

located in the legislative branch (tables 1a and 1b).

Allied and Other Special Operations

♦ A total of 14 state library agencies reported having one or more allied operations (table 2). Allied

operations most frequently linked with a state library agency are the state archives (10 states) and the

state records management service (10 states). 

♦ Sixteen state library agencies contract with public or academic libraries in their states to serve as

resource or reference/information service centers. Eighteen state library agencies host or provide

funding for a State Center for the Book (table 2).

Electronic Services and Information

♦ State library agencies in 49 states and the District of Columbia plan or monitor electronic network

development; 45 of these agencies operate electronic networks; and 46 agencies develop network

content (i.e., database development) (table 3).4

♦ Thirty-six state library agencies were applicants to the Universal Service (E-rate discount) Program

established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) under the Telecommunications Act of

1996 (P.L. 104-104) (appendix B).5

♦ All state library agencies facilitate library access to the Internet in one or more of the following ways: 

training or consulting library staff in the use of the Internet; providing a subsidy for Internet participation;

providing equipment to access the Internet; providing access to directories, databases, or online

catalogs; and managing gopher/Web sites, file servers, bulletin boards, or listservs (table 3).

♦ Forty-seven state library agencies provide or facilitate library access to on-line databases through

subscription, lease, license, consortial membership, or agreement (table 3).

♦ Almost all state library agencies facilitate or subsidize electronic access to the holdings of other libraries

in their state, most frequently through Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) participation (41 states

and the District of Columbia) (table 5). Over half provide access via a Web-based union catalog (30 

states) or Telnet gateway (28 states).

♦ Forty-eight state library agencies have Internet workstations available for public use, ranging in number

from 2 to 4 (22 states); 5 to 9 (13 states); 10 to 19 (5 states); 20 to 29 (5 states); and 30 or more (3

states). Louisiana reported the largest number of public-use Internet terminals (49) (table 4).

 

4 Network content refers to database development. Database development activities may include the

creation of new databases or the conversion of existing databases into electronic format. Includes

bibliographic databases as well as full text or data files.

5

 Under this program, the FCC promotes affordable access to the Internet and the availability of Internet

services to the public, with special attention given to schools and libraries. Appendix B lists the state library

agencies that were applicants to this program.
vi

♦ Forty-seven state library agencies reported combined expenditures of over $25.4 million for statewide

database licensing (table 6a). Michigan had the highest expenditure ($3.1 million) and Louisiana the

lowest ($6,000). At least one-third of the state library agencies reporting such expenditures provided

statewide database licensing services to public, academic, school, and special libraries, and to library

cooperatives, with public libraries served most frequently (47 states). Other state agencies and remote

users were also served by at least one-third of the state library agencies reporting such expenditures.

Library Development Services

Services to Public Libraries

♦ Every state library agency provides the following types of services to public libraries: administration of

Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grants, collection of library statistics, continuing education

programs, and library planning, evaluation, and research. Nearly every state library agency provides

consulting services, library legislation preparation or review, and review of technology plans for the

Universal Service (E-rate discount) Program (table 7a).

♦ Services to public libraries provided by at least three-quarters of state agencies include administration

of state aid, interlibrary loan referral services, literacy program support, reference referral services,

state standards or guidelines, statewide public relations or library promotion campaigns, and summer

reading program support (table 7a).

♦ At least three-fifths of state agencies provide OCLC Group Access Capability (GAC) and union list

development (table 7a).

♦ Less common services to public libraries include accreditation of libraries, certification of librarians,

cooperative purchasing of library materials, preservation/conservation services, and retrospective

conversion of bibliographic records (table 7a).

Services to Academic Libraries

♦ At least two-thirds of state library agencies provide the following services to the academic library sector:

administration of LSTA grants, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral services, and reference

referral services (table 7b).

♦ Less common services to academic libraries include cooperative purchasing of library materials,

literacy program support, preservation/conservation, retrospective conversion, and state standards or

guidelines. No state library agency accredits academic libraries; only Washington state certifies

academic librarians (table 7b).

Services to School Library Media Centers

♦ At least two-thirds of state library agencies provide the following services to school library media

centers (LMCs): administration of LSTA grants, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral services,

and reference referral services (table 7c). At least half of all state library agencies provide consulting

services to LMCs (table 7c).

♦ Less common services to LMCs include administration of state aid, cooperative purchasing of library

materials, preservation/conservation, retrospective conversion, state standards or guidelines, and

Universal Service Program review. No state library agency accredits LMCs or certifies LMC librarians

(table 7c).
vii

Services to Special Libraries

♦ Over two-thirds of state library agencies serve special libraries6 through administration of LSTA grants,

consulting services, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral, and reference referral (table 7d).

♦ Less common services to special libraries include administration of state aid, cooperative purchasing of

library materials, state standards or guidelines, and summer reading program support. Only Nebraska

 accredits special libraries and only Indiana, Nebraska, and Washington state certify librarians of

special libraries (table 7d).

Services to Systems

♦ At least three-fifths of state library agencies serve library systems7 through administration of LSTA

grants, consulting services, continuing education, interlibrary loan referral, library legislation preparation

or review, and library planning, evaluation, and research (table 7e).

♦ Accreditation of library systems is provided by only six states, and certification of systems librarians by

only five states (table 7e).

Service Outlets

♦ State library agencies across the United States reported a total of 128 service outlets — 54 main or

central outlets, 65 other outlets (excluding bookmobiles), and 9 bookmobiles (table 8). Outlets serving

the general public or state government employees were open an average of 30 hours per week (table

9).

Collections

♦ The number of books and serial volumes held by state library agencies totaled 22.2 million, with New

York accounting for the largest collection (2.4 million) (table 10). Six state agencies had book and

serial volumes of over one million. In other states, collections ranged from 500,000 to one million (10

states); 200,000 to 499,999 (13 states); 100,000 to 199,999 (7 states); 50,000 to 99,999 (6 states); and

under 50,000 (7 states). The state library agency in Maryland does not maintain a collection, and the

District of Columbia does not maintain a collection in its function as a state library agency.8

 

6

 A library in a business firm, professional association, government agency, or other organized group; a

library that is maintained by a parent organization to serve a specialized clientele; or an independent library

that may provide materials or services, or both, to the public, a segment of the public, or other libraries. 

The scope of collections and services is limited to the subject interests of the host or parent institution. 

Special libraries include libraries in state institutions.

7

 A system is a group of autonomous libraries joined together by formal or informal agreements to perform

various services cooperatively, such as resource sharing or communications. Systems include multitype

library systems and public library systems, but not multiple outlets under the same administration.

8 In Maryland, Enoch Pratt Central, the central library of the Enoch Pratt Free Library is designated by state

law as the State Library Resource Center. In the District of Columbia, the Martin Luther King Memorial

Library, the central library of the District of Columbia Public Library, functions as a resource center for the

municipal government.
viii

♦ The number of serial subscriptions held by state library agencies totaled over 100,000,9 with New York,

California, and Indiana holding the largest number (about 11,000) (table 10). Six state library agencies

reported serial subscriptions of over 5,000. In other states, these collections ranged from 2,000 to

4,999 (5 states); 1,000 to 1,999 (11 states); 500 to 999 (13 states); 100 to 499 (11 states), and under

100 (3 states). The state library agencies in Maryland and the District of Columbia do not maintain

collections.

Staff

♦ The total number of budgeted full-time equivalent (FTE) positions in state library agencies was 3,848

(table 13a). Librarians with American Library Association-Master of Library Science (ALA-MLS)

degrees accounted for 1,209 of these positions, or 31.4 percent of total FTE positions. Rhode Island

reported the largest percentage (55.0 percent) of ALA-MLS librarians, and Virginia reported the

smallest (12.7 percent).

Income

♦ State library agencies reported a total income of $949.0 million in FY 1999 (83.7 percent from state

sources, 14.5 percent from federal sources, and 1.8 percent from other sources) (table 16).10

♦ State library agency income from state sources totaled $794.3 million, with 69.4 percent ($551 million)

designated for state aid to libraries (table 18). In 12 states, over 75 percent was designated for state

aid to libraries, with Massachusetts having the largest percentage (96.2 percent). Seven states (Hawaii,

Idaho, Iowa, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wyoming) and the District of Columbia

targeted no state funds for aid to libraries.11

♦ Federal income totaled $137.5 million, with 87.1 percent from the Library Services and Technology 

Act (LSTA) (table 17).

Expenditures

♦ State library agencies reported total expenditures of $949.6 million in FY 1999 (table 19). The largest

percentage (83.6 percent) was from state funds, followed by federal funds (14.8 percent), and other

funds (1.7 percent). 

♦ In five states, over 90 percent of total expenditures was from state sources (table 19). These states

were Massachusetts (94.0 percent), Maryland (92.5 percent), New York (92.3 percent), Pennsylvania

(90.7 percent), and Georgia (90.4 percent). The District of Columbia had the smallest percentage of

expenditures from state sources (49.4 percent), followed by Utah (57.8 percent).

 

9 The total number of serial titles is counted, including duplicates.

10 Federal income includes State Program income under the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA)

(P.L. 104-208), income from Titles I to III of the Library Services and Construction Act (LSCA) (P.L. 101-

254), and other federal income. Note: LSCA was superseded by LSTA, but some LSCA funds are still

unspent.

11 The District of Columbia Public Library functions as a state library agency and is eligible for Federal LSTA

funds in this capacity. The state library agency in Hawaii is associated with the Hawaii State Public Library

System and operates all public libraries within its jurisdiction. The state funds for aid to libraries for these

two agencies are reported on the NCES Public Libraries Survey, rather than on the STLA survey, because

of the unique situation of these two state agencies, and in order to eliminate duplicative reporting of these

data.
ix

♦ Financial assistance to libraries accounted for 68.2 percent of total expenditures of state library

agencies, with the largest percentages expended on individual public libraries (43.5 percent) and public

library systems (23.6 percent) (tables 24 and 26c). Most of the expenditures for financial assistance to

libraries were from state sources (87.0 percent), with 12.7percent from federal sources (table 21).

♦ Thirteen state library agencies reported expenditures for allied operations (table 28). These

expenditures totaled almost $25.0 million and accounted for 2.6 percent of total expenditures. Of

states reporting such expenditures, Virginia had the highest expenditure ($7.4 million) and Kansas the

lowest ($146,000).12

♦ Thirty-one state library agencies had a total of $20.6 million in grants and contracts expenditures to

assist public libraries with state education reform initiatives or the National Education Goals (table 29).

The area of lifelong learning accounted for the largest proportion of such expenditures (48.5 percent),

followed by the areas of adult literacy (31.7 percent) and readiness for school (19.8 percent). 

Expenditures were focused exclusively on readiness for school projects in three states (Minnesota,

Pennsylvania, and Vermont); on adult literacy in two states (New Jersey and Oklahoma); and on

lifelong learning in two states (Alabama and Ohio).

 

12 Although Alaska reported allied operations (see table 2), the expenditures were not from the state library

agency budget.

 In Connecticut, 2 of the 3 outlets listed under "Total outlets" in the category "Other outlets (excluding bookmobiles)" serve other libraries, not individuals.

2

 The District of Columbia Public Library (DCPL) is designated as a state library agency for eligibility for federal funds under the Library Services and 

Technology Act (LSTA) (P.L. 104-208). In this capacity, its Division of Special Services has an outlet that includes the Library for the Blind and Physically 

Handicapped and that also serves residents of state institutions through permanent rotating collections.

3

 The state library agency in Maryland is an office in the Maryland Department of Education (the Division of Library Development and Services). Except for its Library for 

the Blind and Physically Handicapped outlet, it does not operate a library for the public or for state government personnel. 

Notes: 1. Service outlets include:

 (a) Main or central outlet--A single unit library or the unit where the principal collections are located and handled. Note: Does not include a state library 

 agency administrative center which is separate from the principal collections and is not open to users.

 (b) Other outlets (excluding bookmobiles)--Units that have all of the following: (1) separate quarters; (2) a permanent basic collection of books and/or 

 other materials; (3) a permanent paid staff; and (4) a regular schedule of hours open to users.

 (c) Bookmobiles--Trucks or vans specially equipped to carry books and other library materials. They serve as travelling branch libraries. 

 Note: The number of vehicles in use are counted, rather than the number of stops each vehicle makes.

 2. User group outlets may not sum to total outlets because an outlet may serve more than one user group.

Appendix A—Survey Methodology

This report contains data on state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia for state fiscal

year 1999. The data were collected through the State Library Agencies (StLA) Survey, conducted by the

National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). The reporting unit for the survey is the state library agency.

Survey Instrument

The StLA survey uses advanced technology to reduce respondent burden and to improve the timeliness and

quality of the data. The FY 1999 survey was redesigned to collect data over the Internet via a Web-based

reporting system (replacing the downloadable DOS software used in past years). The Web survey application

includes a user guide explaining its proper use, the data entry form and instructions, a 'Help' function which

links each survey data item to the instructions for the item, and an edit check tool. The Web survey was

designed to minimize respondent burden and to provide NCES with state-edited data requiring minimal or no

follow-up for data problems.

Survey Release Date, Editing, and Follow-up

The FY 1999 StLA Survey was conducted over the Internet via a Web-based reporting system (replacing the

downloadable DOS software used in past years). The survey was released on the Web to state library

agencies for data entry on December 16, 1999. The survey had a due date of February 15, 2000 and a firm

close-out date of March 15, 2000. The U.S. Census Bureau was the data processing agent for the survey

through an interagency agreement with NCES. Census administered the Web survey system, provided

technical support, conducted nonresponse follow-up, and produced tabulations of the data. NCES edited the

state data submissions.

To reduce response burden, the survey was transmitted with pre-entered prior-year data for items where the

data are not expected to change annually—all or some of Parts A through E and N, or about 40 percent of all

items. The respondent was requested to review the pre-entered data and update any information that had

changed. All other data cells were left blank for the respondent to fill in, not update. The respondent was

instructed to answer -1 to any numeric item if they could not provide the data. The Web application required a

response to all alpha-numeric items, except items that could legitimately be left blank due to skip patterns. The

respondent could not "lock" their data file to signify their completion of the survey unless these conditions were

met. A zero (0) is a reported response and indicates the StLA had none of the item. Missing data were

imputed for the FY 1999 StLA survey, unlike prior years. See the section below on "Imputation" for a

discussion of the imputation methodology.

An edit check tool was built into the Web application which alerted the respondent to questionable data during

the data entry process through interactive "error warnings" and through error reports which could be viewed

on-screen or printed. The edit check program enabled the respondent to submit an edited data file to NCES

which usually required little or no follow-up for data problems.

The Web application edit tool performs four types of edit checks on the data:

1. Relational edit checks. This is a data consistency check between related data elements. For example,

an error message is generated if the StLA is designated as a Federal depository library but does not

indicate the type of federal depository library.

2. Out-of-range edit checks. This is a comparison of data reported for an item to the "acceptable range"

of values. For example, an error message is generated if annual Circulation per annual Library Visits

is less than 0.5.

3. Arithmetic edit checks. This is an arithmetical accuracy check of a reported total and its parts to the

generated total. For example, an error message is generated if Total Operating Expenditures is not
124

equal to the sum of its parts (Total Staff Expenditures, Collection Expenditures, and Other Operating

Expenditures).

4. Blank/zero/invalid edit checks. This is a check of reported data against acceptable values. For

example, an error message is generated if Book/Serial Volumes is 0 or blank.

The preliminary data file and draft tables for the E.D. TABS: State Library Agencies, FY 1999 report were

reviewed by the StLA Survey Steering Committee, NCES, and Census for data problems. Based on this

review, states with questionable data were contacted to request verification or correction of such data.

Imputation

Missing data were imputed using one of 3 methods: the zero rule, the growth rule, or regression modeling.

These methods were used in order -- the zero rule first, then the growth rule, with regression modeling as

the last resort. These methods are explained below.

♦ The zero rule. If the state did not report a value for FY 1999 and reported 0 for FY 1998, then the

value for FY 1999 was set to 0. This rule was applied first, on the assumption that there was no change

from the prior year.

♦ The growth rule. If the state did not report a value for FY 1999 and the value for FY 1998 was greater

than 0, the growth rate from FY 1998 to FY 1999 was calculated for all states that reported data greater

than 0 in both years. The median of the growth rates was then calculated and applied to the state's

previously reported data to obtain an estimate for FY 1999. Note: The growth rule looked at values for

the prior year only, as states that cannot report a particular item tend to have ongoing problems

reporting the item, so earlier data were not considered to be useful.

♦ Regression Modeling. If the state did not report a value for FY 1999 and there is no value for FY

1998, regression was used. The regression model used only the FY 1999 data file. This method used

3 to 6 auxiliary items reported by all states, to determine the regression model that best fit the data. 

The missing value was then replaced with the regression-predicted value. The auxiliary items were

selected by calculating the correlations between the imputed item and all other numeric items on the

data file, and, after a process of elimination, using the items that had the highest correlations to the

imputed item.

Survey Data Items

The FY 1999 survey collected data on 421 items, including governance, public service hours, service

outlets, collections, service transactions, library development transactions, allied operations, staff, income,

expenditures, and electronic services and information. Data were also collected on StLA services to public,

academic, school, and special libraries, and to library systems. The data items and definitions are provided

in the survey facsimile at the end of the data base documentation. 

Universe

The state library agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia (51 total) comprise the survey

universe.

Response Rate

Unit Response. The FY 1999 StLA Survey achieved a 100 percent response rate.

Item Response. Most items had a 100 percent response rate. All other items had a response rate of 98.0

percent (see following list), except library visits which had a response rate of 88.2 percent.

Reporting Period. The FY 1999 StLA Survey requested data for state fiscal year 1999, except for Part B—

Governance and Part J—Staff which requested data as of October 1, 1999. The fiscal year of most states is

July 1 to June 30. Exceptions are New York (April 1 to March 31); Texas (September 1 to August 31); and

Alabama, the District of Columbia, and Michigan (October 1 to September 30).

Using the Data to Make Comparisons. Missing data were imputed beginning with the FY 1999 survey,

and imputed values are noted in the tables. Users should take into consideration that the 15 items which

include some imputed data are not strictly comparable to prior-year findings, which rely only on reported

data. 

State comparisons should be made with caution because states may vary in their fiscal year reporting

periods (as discussed above) and in their interpretation of the survey definitions. The District of Columbia,

while not a state, is included in the survey. Caution should be used in comparing District of Columbia data

with state data.

Appendix D—Survey Facsimile (Data Entry Screens and Instructions)

147

(a) a specific mission, which may be a part of the StLA’s overall mission statement;

(b) staff assigned for that mission; that staff usually includes professionals other than librarians

which a state library agency may provide to government and other users by responding to

reference questions from legislative personnel, providing information service, furnishing

bibliographic and net search results, and instructing and guiding users in conducting their

research. At the federal level, the parallel might be the difference between parts of the Library

of Congress: (1) the Congressional Research Service, and (2) various reference services and

librarian by attesting officially to their qualifications. These qualifications may include a

master's degree from a graduate program accredited by the American Library Association,

another level or type of educational attainment, confirmation of participation in continuing

education activities, and/or residency in the State for a specified period.

052 Collection of library statistics. Every StLA collects statistics on public libraries and

participates in the Federal-State Cooperative System (FSCS) for Public Library Data. Many

StLA's collect statistics on institutional and other special libraries. Some StLA's assist in the

collection of academic library statistics for the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data

System (IPEDS). A few StLA's collect statistics on school library media centers. These data

collections usually involve the design and administration of survey instruments as well as data

entry and processing and report design and dissemination.

053 Consulting services. Individual or small-group contacts to help libraries to attain goals and

objectives and to deal with specific needs and problems. Consultants provide guidance on

problems of concern to local personnel, assistance in identifying problems not clearly

recognized, and identification of opportunities for increased or improved performance to

specific groups.

054 Continuing education programs. Includes staff development events for library personnel

at all levels as well as training events for trustees and other State and local government

lamination.

062 Reference referral services. Provision of information about or from groups or

organizations. A reference referral transaction involves the provision of information about a

group or organization and its activities, services or agencies, and calendar. Such a transaction

typically requires the determination of the user's need and the appropriate group or

organization to meet the need. Such a transaction may require directing the user to persons or

organizations external to the library for an answer to a question.

063 Retrospective conversion of bibliographic records. Retrospective conversion involves

changing bibliographic records from one format, usually cards, to machine-readable form in

order to produce or make additions to an automated catalog.

064 State standards/guidelines. The StLA may promulgate standards or guidelines that define

adequacy, equity, and/or excellence in library service. Standards or guidelines may be

quantitative, qualitative, or both. Maintaining standards or following guidelines may be a

requirement for receiving State aid and/or LSTA grants.

065 Statewide public relations/library promotion campaigns. A concerted public relations

program usually organized around a particular theme or issue, with specific objectives, and

using a variety of techniques in concert (e.g., press releases, events, publications, exhibits).
