§ 18-7-101 — Prerequisites to appropriate money for establishment and maintenance of library; payment of expenses

When the board of county commissioners has received sufficient
guarantees whether in the forms of conveyances or bonds of
citizens, associations or corporations that a suitable place
will be permanently furnished for the operation and use of a
public library, it shall annually provide through property tax
or otherwise for the establishment and maintenance of a public
library at the county seat of the county. Whenever suitable
library quarters are acquired, the county library board of
directors may expend the revenue budgeted for the maintenance
and operation of the county library and the county library
system.
