Compliance

The goal of the West Virginia Library Commission is to ensure all public libraries are in compliance with WVLC administrative rules, including Match, MOE, Continuing Education, and the federal E-Rate program.   

Annual Report (Bibliostat)

Bibliostat is the annual survey all libraries are required to complete.  The survey has three primary purposes:

  1. To determine whether or not the library meets requirements for receiving Grants-In-Aid (see Title 173-1-3).
  2. To collect information for the Institute of Museum and Library Services national annual survey, and
  3. To provide statistical information that helps West Virginia legislators understand the importance of libraries, enable the WVLC to track data, provide library directors with information they need to better administer their libraries, and provide the general public with library statistics.
