This bill amends subsection 2 of section 54-24.4-05 of the North Dakota Century Code, specifically addressing the distribution of state aid to public libraries. The amendment introduces the phrase "state funded" to clarify the type of grants being approved for distribution to libraries, while explicitly excluding grants that are distributed under chapter 54-24.2.

The primary focus of this legislative change is to ensure that the grants provided to libraries are clearly identified as state-funded, thereby enhancing transparency in the funding process. This amendment aims to streamline the approval process for library grants and delineate the sources of funding more clearly.
