FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11 FORM 990 IS COMPLETED BY CARROLL COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY FINANCE DEPARTMENT STAFF WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF A PAID PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM. THE FORM 990 IS THOROUGHLY REVIEWED BY THE BOARD TREASURER AND THE LIBRARY DIRECTOR PRIOR TO SUBMISSION TO THE IRS. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C INFORMALLY THE LIBRARY ATTEMPTS TO MONITOR TRANSACTIONS FOR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST THROUGH THE PURCHASING PROCESS WHERE MOST TRANSACTIONS ARE REVIEWED AND APPROVED PRIOR TO PURCHASE. ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE MONITORED WHEN SUBMITTED FOR PAYMENT. ALL TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING BOARD MEMBERS AND KEY EMPLOYEES ARE INCLUDED IN THESE REVIEW PROCESSES. IF A DETERMINATION IS MADE THAT A CONFLICT OF ANY SIZE EXISTS, THIS INFORMATION IS COMMUNICATED TO THE LIBRARY DIRECTOR FOR FOLLOW UP WITH THE BOARD AT A SCHEDULED MEETING. THE DISCUSSION DOCUMENTING ANY POTENTIAL/ACTUAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST IS RECORDED IN THE BOARD MINUTES. ANY ACTION TAKEN IS AT THE DISCRETION OF THE BOARD. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 THE PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION FOR THE CEO IS GERMANE TO THE ANNUAL BUDGET PROCESS. GUIDELINES FOR A FISCAL YEAR'S OPERATING BUDGET ARE PREPARED ANNUALLY BY THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS IN OCTOBER. FROM THE GUIDELINES, A PROPOSED BUDGET IS PREPARED BY THE LIBRARY. THIS BUDGET, INCLUDING SALARY CHANGES, IF ANY, IS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF CARROLL COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY AND PRESENTED TO THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS IN DECEMBER. IN MAY, PUBLIC HEARINGS ARE HELD TO OBTAIN COMMENTS FROM THE COMMUNITY. FOLLOWING THE HEARING, A PUBLIC MEETING IS HELD BY THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR REVIEWING THE COMMENTS MADE AT THE HEARING. AFTER ADJUSTMENT, IF ANY, BY THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, FUNDING FOR THE LIBRARY IS APPROVED AS PART OF THE COUNTY'S LEGALLY ADOPTED BUDGET. THE LIBRARY'S OPERATING BUDGET NEEDS FINAL APPROVAL BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES. THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS APPROVE THE COUNTY'S APPROPRIATION TO THE LIBRARY; HOWEVER DO NOT APPROVE THE LIBRARY BUDGET AS A WHOLE. DUE TO THE LIBRARY'S FINANCIAL DEPENDENCE ON COUNTY GOVERNMENT, ALL CHANGES IN COMPENSATION AT THE LIBRARY ARE CONSIDERED IN LIGHT OF CHANGES MADE AT COUNTY GOVERNMENT. SALARY DECISIONS AND PAYROLL FUNCTIONS ARE INDEPENDENT OF COUNTY GOVERNMENT, BUT ARE CLOSELY COORDINATED TO AVOID INEQUITIES BETWEEN THE TWO ENTITIES FOR LIKE POSITIONS. IN 2004 A FULL SALARY STUDY FOR ALL POSITIONS AT THE LIBRARY WAS MADE. THIS PROCESS INCLUDED A COMPLETE REVIEW OF THE SALARY SCALE WITH COMPARABILITY DATA FROM THE LOCAL SCHOOL SYSTEM, COUNTY GOVERNMENT AND NEIGHBORING LIBRARY SYSTEMS. THIS INFORMATION WAS COMPILED AND ANALYZED BY AN INDEPENDENT FIRM AND FINDINGS WERE SHARED WITH THE BOARD.

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C: THERE IS NO CHANGE IN THIS PROCESS FROM THE PRIOR YEAR.
