Summary

The law creates a county law library in every county seat, defining permissible locations and requiring the collection to include state‑provided volumes and allowing online legal resources. A board of trustees—comprised of local attorneys and the county attorney—manages the library, makes acquisitions, and oversees staff, while a designated treasurer handles all financial transactions and reporting. The goal is to provide consistent, reliable legal research resources for the public and the courts.
