Impact fees.
Impact fees are property tax assessments that are placed on new homes as

costs that result from the impact that the new residents will have on a
library's operation.

Public library standards are more critical today when we must balance the
books and bytes than they have ever been. This presentation will highlight
needs and best practices.

He also responds with specific strategies for dealing with massive budget
cuts in public libraries.
