Boxford Town Library Technology Plan
2006-2011

Budget

It is difficult to project out for five years what exactly will be needed for the libraries; however the following assumptions used to develop the budget are as follows:

3% yearly increase will be applied to consultant services charges including:
        future PC set up charges (base of actual cost: $170/PC, FY06)
        10 hours per year for “troubleshooting” (base of actual cost $75/hr, FY06);
Wireless networked laptops will be purchased in FY07 using a grant from Verizon;
A new server will be purchased in FY07, and scheduled for replacement every five years thereafter;
Three new PC’s will be purchased each fiscal year, beginning in FY07;
PC purchase prices are expected to remain flat;
One new printer per year will be purchased each fiscal year beginning in FY07.
