Our mission is to provide financial and budgeting services to the University Libraries.  We are committed to providing excellent customer service and to serving as a financial and administrative resource for the libraries.  Our staff values integrity and teamwork.

We oversee the fiscal management of the Libraries as directed by the Dean.  This includes everything from planning the budget to closing out expenditures at the end of each fiscal year.  In addition, we perform a wide variety of accounting, budget, audit and cash control functions.  This office is the final approval on all income and expense documents to assure compliance with University policy.
