The KYVL funding formula aims for clarity and simplicity; equity and impartiality within and among member types; and sustainability.
As of July 1, 2022, invoicing, all KYVL member libraries and organizations are in formula, except for two for-profit institutions impacted by a rate change during the previous year.
In F2016-17, the Funding Work Group undertook to develop a new database funding formula characterized by:
The formula attempts to apply these principles both within and among member types (academic, K12, public and special libraries).The new formula eliminates usage as a measure for individual members, but seeks to generate member revenues reflecting broad usage across member types.
The resulting formula was approved, and following a straight 5% increase for all members in F17-18, implemented of the new formula began with F18-19 invoicing. The complete implementation timeline follows, subject to the transition rules outlined below.
Individual institutional assessments during implementation of the new formula are governed by the following transition rules:
A summary of the effects of these transition rules starting in year one of implementation is as follows:
If in comparison with prior year's bill, increase under new formula is: |
Institution pays: |
---|---|
Less than or equal to 0% | Same as current bill |
More than 0% but less than 20% | New formula amount |
More than 20% but less than 150% (upon year one implementation) | 20% increase annually until new formula is reached |
More than 150% (as of year one) | Uniform annual percentage increase that will result in being in formula in five years |
KYVL members enjoy substantial savings through statewide licensing and collaboration. For an estimate of your institution's annual KYVL database costs, enter the requested information below.
Fiscal year costs are calculated using your institution's most recent 12-month FTE and total materials / services expenditures from the IPEDS Data Center at the time of calculation.
Please note that paid courier stops and costs for KDL storage, if applicable, are not included in this calculation.

KYVL members enjoy substantial savings through statewide licensing and collaboration. For an estimate of your district's annual KYVL database costs, enter the requested information below. For a private school estimate, please enter number of students and schools / locations.
Fiscal year costs are calculated using student headcount and A1 schools count as reported in the most current KDE data sets at the time of calculation, generally on or around November 1. For private schools, KYVL consults the NCES Private School Universe Survey whenever possible.

For access to KYVL database resources, each library type pays a base fee and a cost (or costs) based on population served. Public and academic assessments include a calculation based on collection expenditures. Publicly available data is used whenever possible.
While usage is not a funding factor for individual members, the formula seeks to generate member revenues reflecting broad usage across member types.
