1. The governing authority of any city library is authorized to establish with any financial institution or the city treasurer, as custodian, a special fund, known as the “................ city library gift fund.” The moneys in such fund must be derived from all or any part of any gift, bequest or devise, including the interest thereon, and any additional money of the city library that is needed to supplement or match any gift, bequest or devise in the gift fund. The gift fund is a separate and continuing fund and no moneys in it revert to the general fund of the city at any time.
