§ 5-38009 — Proceeds of tax in separate fund

In counties having a population of 25,000 or more, the proceeds of this tax shall be deposited in the treasury of the county in a separate library fund. In counties having a population of less than 25,000, the proceeds thereof, shall be paid over by the person charged with the collection thereof to the county library board and deposited by it in a fund to be known as the county library fund; and in counties of such population such library board shall require the treasurer of such board or such other person as may be designated as the custodian of the moneys paid over to such board to give a bond to be approved by it and in such amount, not less than $1,000 nor more than $10,000 as the board may determine, conditioned that he will safely keep and will pay over upon the order of such board all funds received and held by him for such board. No part of this fund shall be expended except upon warrants certified to as correct by the county librarian and approved by the president of the county library board. In cases where the public county library service is maintained by contract with an existing library or libraries, no part of the library fund shall be expended except upon warrants certified to as correct by the librarian or two (2) members of the board of any such library and approved by the president of the board of trustees of any such library.
