Budget season used to scare me; now it's my favorite week. I look at what each dollar brought back last year, pour more into the winners, and quietly kill the things that never paid off. A vendor pushed back hard when I cut them, but I had the numbers and didn't blink. Every line now earns its place.
More people experience this than they realize.
You fund what works, cut what doesn't, and every dollar earns its place.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
