The bill amends subsection 4 of section 54-24-03 of the North Dakota Century Code, which pertains to the responsibilities of the state librarian. The revised language emphasizes the state librarian's role in making library materials accessible to libraries across North Dakota, as well as to individuals affiliated with state departments and the general public.

Notably, the bill removes the stipulation that library materials be made available specifically to citizens who do not have adequate library facilities, along with the requirement that this access be governed by the rules of the state library. This change broadens the scope of access to library materials, allowing for a more inclusive approach to library services in the state.
