There was a spontaneous burst of applause from the observing lobbyists, because it was about the first agreement reached on a programmatic difference. That break in the logjam was followed by a trade on title II issues. The Senate agreed to accept the House II-D technology grants, and the House agreed to give up a $75,000 authorization for the evaluation study by the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science of the II-A need criteria for college library grants, although the requirement for the study remained in place. One important title II issue remained: How much of that $10.2 billion cap would title II get as an authorization or ceiling above which funding could not rise, and how would it be divided among title II programs? Dividing up the cap was the last issue decided. The House proposed a package which included $29 million for title I I ĝ The Senate counter-offer had only $20 million. There seemed to be an impasse, and conferees were running out of time since adjournment was scheduled for October 3. Senate conferees, al though including solid library supporters such as Sen. Claiborne Pell (D-RI), were reluctant to provide growth room for non-student aid provisions, and par ticularly for unfunded programs. House members were just as adamant about the importance of certain non-student aid titles. Finally, the Senate agreed to an additional $25 million for institution- based aid, to be divided up as the House conferees wished. Reps. Charles Hayes (D– IL) and Major Owens (D–NY) insisted that $10 million of that sum be added to the $20 million in the Senate offer for title II. Rep. Ford quickly summarized his colleagues’ consensus, and Ford and Stafford agreed they had a deal. The conference agreement was later agreed to by the full House and Senate, and signed into law (PL 99–498) by the President. So title II was reauthorized at $30 million, divided $10 million for II-A library resources grants targeted to needy colleges, $5 million for II– B training and research, $10 million for II– C major research library grants, and $5 million for II–D technology and cooperation grants. Library program authorizations are above current funding ($7 million) by a higher percentage than almost any other HEA program area. The next challenge for the academic library community is to work HARD for actual funding, especially for the unfunded II–A and II–D. We must work for funding because libraries need it, but also to show our HEA library champions that they did not work for us in vain. Champions w o n ’t remain champions unless constituents thank them and follow it up with hard work on funding. Please be alert to calls for action on this next year.
