Summary
Trustees recorded that the FY26 library budget is fully expended, will request the first half of the FY27 appropriation, approved withdrawing $4,000 from the E. Harlow Russell fund for book purchases and accepted $205 in unanticipated funds.
The Sanbornton Library Board of Trustees on June 16 recorded that the FY26 library budget has been fully expended and will notify the Town by letter. Trustees said they will request the first half of the FY27 appropriation from the town.
At the meeting the trustees approved a request to the Trustees of the Trust Funds to withdraw $4,000 from the E. Harlow Russell fund for the purpose of purchasing books; Trustee Grace Olson moved the action and Treasurer Barbara Whetstone seconded it, recorded as PUNA. Separately, the board accepted $205 in unanticipated funds during the Treasurer’s report; that item was also approved on a motion by Olson and second by Whetstone (PUNA).
The minutes do not specify the source of the unanticipated $205 or the precise purchasing plan for the $4,000 beyond 'purchasing books.' The board did not record any separate vote tallies by individual names in the minutes; motions are identified by mover and seconder and marked PUNA.
Trustees will notify the town of the FY26 expenditure status by letter and will request the FY27 first-half appropriation as part of routine budget-year procedures. No additional budget transfers or funding sources were cited in the minutes.
