REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as Art.
77, §169(a)(1) through (6).

The second sentence of present Art. 77,
§169 (a) (1) which authorizes counties included in
a standard metropolitan statistical area as a
result of the 1970 census to remain in a regional
resource center is deleted as unnecessary since
the requirement that the county be outside a
standard metropolitan statistical area applies
only to the formation of a center and not to its
continuation.

The only other changes are in style.

23-203. METROPOLITAN COOPERATIVE SERVICES PROGRAMS.

(A) AUTHORIZED.

THE BOARD OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES OF ANY PUBLIC LIBRARY
SYSTEM THAT IS NOT PARTICIPATING IN A REGIONAL RESOURCE
CENTER MAY PARTICIPATE IN A METROPOLITAN COOPERATIVE SERVICE
PROGRAM.
