INTERLOCAL COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT
FOR
LIBRARY SERVICES
This Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Library Service is entered into between Skagit
County, hereinafter referred to as"County", and the municipalities of Mount Vernon, Anacortes,
Burlington, Sedro Woolley and Concrete, hereinafter referred to as"Cities and Towns".
This Agreement is based upon the following facts and circumstances:
The County does not, nor is it required by statute to, provide a general library service to the
citizens residing in unicorporated Skagit County.
Historically, each of the Cities and Towns has provided library service to residents and non-
residents alike.
Depending upon the policies in each of the Cities and Towns, non-residents have paid a fee for
library services.
Due to increasing competition for funding and increasing library usage, the Cities and Towns are
having difficulty providing services to residents and non-residents alike.
The County, in 1997, has made funding available for a portion of the costs to provide services to
non-county resident users of libraries located in the Cities and Towns.
In consideration of the facts listed above, the parties agree as follows:
1. During 1997 the County will provide the Cities and Towns a total sum of$100,000 to assist in
providing library services to the citizens of unicorporated Skagit County. The sum will be
distributed to the Cities and Towns based upon the library book, audio, film, video and
subscription collection and circulation of each municipal library, except Concrete, which shall
receive $4,000.
2. Based upon circulation and collection figures provided by the Cities and Towns, the$100,000
will be distributed as follows:
Mount Vernon $42,365
Anacortes $29,253
Burlington $11,921
Sedro Woolley $12,461
Concrete $4,000
TOTAL $100,000
3. Each of the Cities and Towns will receive its payment for library services when the following
information is provided to the County:
a) Documentation that non-resident library users, except in the Town of Concrete, pay at
least$10 per library card
b) Documentation in the 1997 library budget indicating the County services payment will
be used for 1997 library activities.

4. All assets acquired as a result of this funding will become the property of the respective City
or Town. Each City or Town will be responsible for all aspects of library operation
5. The term of this agreement is January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997.
THIS AGREEMENT is entered into this day of l', 1997.

FACT SHEET
The program was created in 1988 when County Commissioners appropriated $50,000
to support city efforts to serve non-city residents. This appropriation was increased to
$75,000 in 1989, $100,000 in 1990 and 1991. In 1992, during the time when the Skagit
Council of Governments was in limbo, the Commissioners directed SCOG dues to
library services. The sum of$120,000, including $20,000 of reallocated SCOG dues,
were distributed to the libraries in 1992. The appropriation was reduced back to
$100,000 in 1993 and has remained unchanged through 1997.
