Libraries filing their own annual disclosure?
by Andrea Estelle 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

Do any of your libraries file your own annual disclosure (on debt bonds?) We have been using our Financial Management firm to file ours but I feel like I may be able to do this process myself and save ODL some money. The cost has gotten pretty high and I fill in all the information on it in for them anyways. It may be just a matter of knowing where to file it and when. If anyone already does this process in house can you reply off-list? I have a couple questions. Andrea Estelle, MLIS Brighten the Corner Where You Are! Library Director .
