§ 19171 County Library Funding Allocation

• •Counties can use money they get from a special 1972 law to help their free libraries.
• •This money can be used to start a library, keep it running, or buy things like books or buildings for it.
• •The county leaders (called the 'board of supervisors') get to decide if and how to use this money for libraries.

Your county gets $100,000 from the government under an old law from 1972.

The county leaders can choose to spend some or all of that money on the local free library. They might buy new books, computers, or even a new building for the library.
