DescriptionThe Foundation provided grants to The Seattle Public Library to support primarily three areas: collections, free public programs, and capital improvements.In 2011, the Foundation gave grants totaling almost $1.5 million to support the enhancement of the Library's collection. Those dollars allowed the Library to buy books, audiobooks, DVDs and music recordings for adults, teens and children, making more than 42,000 new items available on library shelves across the city. Approximately 25% of the 50,000 new ebooks and e-audiobooks added to the Library's online collection were funded by the Foundation. Currently nearly one in five items in the Library's collection was purchased with Foundation funding.Description

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Form 990 is initially drafted by the Senior Finance Manager, working jointly with the Foundation's auditors (JJCO). The draft Form 990 and source documenation is reviewed by the Executive Director and the Senior Finance Manager. After any necessary revisions have been made, the draft Form 990 is provided to the Finance Committee (chaired by the Foundation Treasurer). The Committee ensures the financial information in the Form 990 agrees with the audited financial statements, and reviews the entire draft. Any questions or concerns are discussed with the Executive Director or the Senior Finance Manager. Once the Finance Committee approves the draft, the Treasurer signs the return.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe Foundation's Conflict of Interest Policy covers all members of the Board of Directors, who have a duty to disclose any actual or possible conflicts of interest to the Board of Directors, or to a committee of the Board with delegated powers over the transaction or arrangement. After gathering relevant information on which to base their decision, the Board or committee determines whether a conflict of interest exists. Deliberation by the Board or committee takes place outside of the presence of the disclosing Board member. The Board or committee takes appropriate disciplinary and corrective action whenever it determines a conflict of interest exists. The Governance Committee is responsible for maintaining the Conflict of Interest Policy, reviewing the disclosure forms, and taking appropriate action on potential conflicts of interest.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15Compensation for the Executive Director, Director of Development & Communications, and the Senior Finance Manager is established by the Seattle City Librarian upon consultation with the Foundation's Executive Committee and based on recommendations from the Seattle Public Library's Human Resources Department. In making its recommendation, the Human Resources Department considers information drawn from a market survey of comparable employers and internal pay equity among positions with similar levels of responsibility.
