What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a county that does not maintain a consolidated public

library for the county and that contains residents who are not residents of a

municipality that maintains a public library must pay to each public library in the

county, and to each public library in an adjacent county, an amount that is equal to

at least 70 percent of the amount computed by multiplying the number of loans of

material made by that library to residents of the county who are not residents of a

municipality that maintains a public library by the library's average operational cost

per loan (library service payment).

Under this bill, a county, whether or not it maintains a consolidated public

library for the county, must make a library service payment to each public library in

an adjacent county.
