STANDARDS OF ELIGIBILITY FOR AID; REPORTS ON OPERATION OF LIBRARIES; SUPERVISION
OF SERVICES (§ 42.1-52)

The Board shall establish standards under which library systems and libraries
shall be eligible for state aid and may require reports on the operation of all
libraries receiving state aid.
		As long as funds are available, grants shall be made to the various libraries,
library systems or contracting libraries applying for state aid in the order in
which they meet the standards established by the Board.
		In the event that any library meets the standards of the State Library Board
but is unable to conform to § 42.1-15.1 relating to the employment of qualified
librarians, the Library Board may, under a contractual agreement with such
library, provide professional supervision of its services and may grant state
aid funds to it in reduced amounts under a uniform plan to be adopted by the
State Library Board.
