Preliminary FY23 EOY report:

  • All expected FY23 income received
  • Final Cornell quarterly payment for developer still to be paid
  • Project $90,000 EOY money
    • $60,000 of this is due to membership prepayments (one-time money)
  • Recommendation: Add to our reserve fund, will give us 6 months of expenses saved, which was our goal

Preliminary FY24 projections:  FY24

 $514,000 income : $405,000 memberships + $109,000 EBSCO

$307,000 projected expenses

=$206,000 uncommitted funds

  • final overview next time
  • 2 new members: NLA, LOC and one increased membership (BVB) - no other echo on Mike G's. email
  • No changes planned in membership structure

Have already received ~$100,000 in membership dues via ACH/Wire deposits, also have several checks waiting to be cashed, so FY24 money is coming in at a good pace

Controlling AWS CostsAt CC's request a while, back the Technical Council created a subgroup to define some processes for Controlling AWS Costs.  The subgroup has drafted four deliverables, linked on that page.  I presented them to TC this morning; TC reviewed them and with one edit approved them as well.  We also need CC's edits and approval please since it was your request originally, this is all about budgets, and the deliverables propose a new group with CC's participation to perform that oversight.
