You take the last budget and plan for your budget this year.  According to your requirements and financial ability of your parent organisation has to be considered.

You have to go for new programmes according to your need and type of the users in your school.

the last budget can help u a lot

It seems that you are going to establish a new libray. The answer of your first query is the head of the budget  are Books , Magazines , newspaper, equipment, lib software, miscellaneous. there should be minimum 1500 books in which 5 books for each  student should be of general interest ( except text books). for reference book for a school library there is a book list in the book ' organising school library guidelines by cbse'. you can also make a audio visual section in the library and collect digital contents.

thanks
