\n<\/span><\/span>The ALA Board accepts the 2015 budget revisions as presented.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nResolution Nr. 3<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/span>To <\/span>provide for<\/span> a standardized process and format for documenting\u202fALA Support,\u202fALA Award\u202fand other major expenditures, the ALA Board resolves that when these expenses are included and detailed in the ALA budget,\u202fexpenditures are approved as a function of Budget approval.\u202fAuthorization for expenditures <\/span>in excess of<\/span> those included in the budget will require separate board resolutions. This approach will assign to a specific ALA office responsibility for managing ALA relations with identified partner organizations. This approach supplants the earlier process whereby a separate resolution was authorized for each such expenditure. Documentation in budget must include payee, amount, purpose, and fund source sorted by General Fund or Temporarily Restricted Fund.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nResolution Nr. 4<\/strong>
