Overview

Mission

NHLTAs primary exempt purpose is to develop a more effective body of public library trustees by providing educational opportunities to assist in understanding the responsibilities and duties of the position.

What it reported doing in 2024

Training public library trustees to be knowledgeable and effective in order to serve improve and promote NH public libraries. Approximately 301 people attended the Annual Conference and 157 people attended regional educational workshops.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 94% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
