§ 19111 County Library Contract Termination

• •A county can still create a free library even if they already have a contract with another library.
• •If the county makes a new free library, they can end the old contract early if both sides agree.
• •The old contract can also just keep going until its original end date if they want.

A county pays a private company to run their libraries, but later decides to make their own free library for everyone.

The county can still make their own free library even if they have a contract. Then, they can either cancel the old contract early if both sides agree, or just let it finish on its own.
