The bill proposes the creation of new subsections to sections 54-24-03 and 54-24.2-01 of the North Dakota Century Code, focusing on the disbursement of surplus library materials and the eligibility of public libraries for financial aid. Specifically, it mandates the disbursement of surplus library materials to libraries across the state, ensuring that these resources are utilized effectively.

Additionally, the bill requires public libraries to complete and submit an annual report for the previous calendar year as stipulated in section 54-24.2-06. This new requirement aims to enhance accountability and transparency regarding the financial aid received by public libraries, thereby supporting their operational needs and resource management.
