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 the state, as well as to individuals affiliated with state departments and North Dakota citizens.
Notably, the bill removes the stipulation that these services are specifically for citizens who do not have adequate library facilities. This change broadens the scope of accessibility, allowing the state librarian to provide library materials to a wider audience without the previous limitation.
